servicing two farms with one train with supplies, possible?
There are two farms connected by rail. I like to service both with farmsupplies by one and only train. F.i. There are 6 wagons, 3 are unloaded at farm 1, the other 3 at farm 2. I can't figure out if that is possible, I guess not, but maybe there is a wizard who knows the answer

Easiest way would be to transfer the supplies to a station and then supply the farms with a truck.

Using CargoDist for industries should also work.
Playing old-fashioned I think you'd have to build two separate offloading stations and then tell the train to alternate between them. So Supplies -> Farm A -> Supplies -> Farm B.

Thank you all. That gives me some ideas. Very useful.

Make a train three wagons long that would make two trips. Its orders would look like this:
- Go to supply station (full load)
- Go to drop station 1
- Go to supply station (full load)
- Go to drop station 2

I often add a supplies wagon to a delivery train, you get perfect timing of supply deliveries, no extra infra structure, just a little bit less cargo delivered each run.
Being a retired OpenTTD developer does not mean I know what I am doing.
