Changing Waybill Destination
Fell into a trap that others have fallen into: I carried 10 skeleton cars up to Connelly L1 and only six of them fit and loading. Is it possible to change the destination for the remaining four cars a little farther up the mountain to Connelly L2?

I have had issues selecting the destination as well from the drop down menu, go to operations and press cycle until L2 comes up

THANK YOU! I was having a similar issue where reselecting a waybill's destination/source would be acknowledged by the drop down but nowhere else in the game. Cycling a few times works to refresh it!

L1 is the first on the bottom. I generally load four log cars there while 8 more are loaded up on L2 in the middle valley. L3 is a dedicated engine and 6 log bunks that simply back into it with no switching to load.

To get everyone out in the night, the 6 bunk cars leave L3 in the am and go straight to sawmill to dispose of the logs in I think R2 by the pond. When thats done theres a engine with 12 loaded bunks having gathered the first 8 in L2 and drifted down to get the other four at L1 for a total of 12. Those go into the R2 siding about midmorning when the first 6 logs are completed.

6 and engine goes back to L3 and back in to be loaded in about a hour or so. The other 12 gets inhaled by the mill in a couple of hours and back up they go.

Repeat. Boxcars fillup ship to interchange later that day. Add empties prior to sunrise service, add more empties if any. Tracks R01, SO1. Length 445 feet capacity 6 cars for loading.

The Sawdust cars into C1 are welcome until you bring in the gigantic Mill gondolas with the LONG 70 ton capacity with several more waiting on some track blocking everything. The Devs can write under the C1 Track with the glow strike plate showing a zone of unloading and make it longer to fit THREE 70 ton long mill gondolas It will reduce a tedium by a touch and would be welcome as outgoing loads when the time comes without a extra days delay waiting to be spotted to take sawdust.

Here is a map pull online with car capacity for you.

This is SOP on my railroad, particularly for Sylva Paperboard/Tannery.
