Seems this destroys the purpose of warehouses. I have a ton of goods designated "reserved for city X" , like 30, and a train from city Y sitting on the track ready to get them. The city Y train is waiting there over 4 weeks "waiting to pick up goods". And theres a huge stock of goods there, but its reserved for city X. Huh? I thought the whole purpose of warehouses was as a central point to distribute to all cities. How is it they come in and are reserved for only one? can I override this?...

Having game breaking trouble with my warehouse layout. Right now I have goods shipped to a central warehouse out in the field in the middle of 4 cities. To me its elegant, the farm pumps the good to the central warehouse, then I have trains in a starburst back and forth from the central warehouse to the 4 cities picking up whats needed. Big problem: When the goods leave the corn farm, they are designated ONLY for one city, the one nearest the warehouse - theres the priority of distance. Who thought ...

Is anyone else having this issue?

Help!...

My task in a free game is to transport 96,700 wagons of grain. The time frame is from 1830 to 1842. Does anyone have any tips? (I'm currently at the end of 1834 and have only managed 7,000 wagons.)
