Why it doesnt work (see picture)? Trains are using only two paths to stations.

Hmm, did you perhaps forget to add an attachment?

Hmm. Strange. I guess.
I don't know what might be causing that.

The entry signals suppost to be double signals, not one-way signals. If you try double signals, and always 1 one-way right in front of the switch of the tracks, then the trains automaticly chooses the empty track.

Hmm, I thought that wasn't true for Locomotion.

It's been ages since I played LoMo

yes, but there is a little problem here, if there was only one way signals, it would choice the closest platforms, not the ones further away line.
also, ive pointed out, that the train will only choice the full platform if all the others are in use.
my guess is waypoint error, maybe you have a waypoint next to your station.
yes, you might have a waypoint next to the 5th platform on the track that splits off.
so some regards I agree with S.P. but one way should work as well, but choice the storest route (closest platforms to each other, Station A Station B)

Hello R!Ki welcome.

Locomotion does not like 6 platform stations like that. There have been many players who have problems with 6 platforms off of one track.

Simplist solution I recommend you try first is remove one platform.

Good luck

I had 13 off one track before, no problems.

Remove one of the platforms, and put two-way signals infront of the stations, and it should work.
