Do you have screenshots? It should pickup from the north station.

Where are you trying to take the munitions, and where are you trying to take them from? Irkutsk to Ulan-Ude, or some intermediate step?

Is there cargo on the platform, but the train isn't picking it up? Or is there not even any cargo on the platform?

the line runs from irkutsk to Ulan-ude by rail around the lake area and there is no cargo on Irkutsk rail platform

Then your issue is that the line isn't completely linking the Irkutsk Munitions Supply Building with the Ulan-Ude Munitions Demand Building.

Possible reasons for this:

1. Somewhere along the way, you switched rails, so the Ulan-Ude station isn't actually directly connected to Irkutsk. For example, you might have the rail coming into one platform of a two-platform station, and then the rail leaving from the other platform, so there's no connection.
   
   
2. One of either your origin station (Irkutsk) or destination station (Ulan-Ude) is not connected to the road.
   
   
3. One of your stations does not have the associated production building within its catchment.
   
   
4. Some other issue is preventing your train from leaving Irkutsk and arriving in Ulan-Ude.

If the train actually is traveling the line, just empty because no munitions are being supplied, then you can eliminate the first and fourth options, leaving just the second and third.

(And of course, this is all assuming you're using boxcars, but you've already stated that you're definitely using the correct wagon types.)
