Hello,

I have a little problem with an industry chain;
a pharmacy is connected to a chemiocal plant,
and the goods should be shipped first by train, then plane, then truck...
All transport etc... are set up and connected,
but for some reason the train doesn't take any of the goods (boxed goods),
although everything is connected correctly...
Is there any reason this can happen???

thanks,

The short answer is: yes!

There can be a lot of reasons, most likely these are:

1) Is there a contract between pharmacy and chemical plant?
2) Are all stations enabled for goods?
3) Are all transfer-stations (train to plane, plane to truck) really one station, or just two stations near each other?
4) Is the pharmacy already full with chemicals?

Also, is there a valid path on your tracks?  There could be a signal issue somewhere or a gap in the tracks (especially at bridges) that is hard to spot but will bring your entire chain to a halt . . .
