How do i get an industry to increase production?
For example is it possible to put a big station next a coal mine producing
only 135 units a month to increase production
by putting 4 trains on full-load in that station?

Other than that there is no other way...(That *I* know of!)
But don't use more trains than nessecery!

Although the second of those will occasionally double or halve (it seems
to be pretty random, but I'm not sure), there's nothing YOU can do to
change it. If you are providing a very high service, then you will get
up to or very near the maximum production from the industry.
Putting FOUR trains in on full load (or 3 aeroplanes or 2 lorries or 80
ships) is no better than only putting one in, in terms of your ratings.
The AI doesn't care if the station has 89 vehicles there or one, at any
time, so long as there is a vehicle taking the cargo.
And so it is better, if you need to use more than one vehicle to
transport all of the cargo produced, to only send them into the station
one at a time. If you send four trains in at once, the cargo will be
split equally between the four of them, so each one will take four times
as long as if you had sent that one in on its own. Then all four trains
will want to leave together, which causes hold-ups, and will all want to
use the unloading station at the same time, which causes hold-ups, and
in the meantime, there will be NO vehicles serving the production
industry.
Ideally you want one train to arrive at the station just as another one
leaves, although this is hard to regulate over any length of time.

track but have an "in" and "out" track. While a train is loading the other
one is waiting on the "in" track. When the first train leaves using the
"out"-track, the second train comes in immediately.
Even more effective if you make the station a one wayed one so the first
train and the second one do not cross.
In the case of farms I used to have two separate stations, one for the
plants and the other one for the animals. So the trains picked up only one
type of cargo and could be set to full load. But I find it somewhat more
efficient to have mixed trains without the full load command because if you
haul the cargo often this increases the ratings more than waiting for full
load (formula in the FAQ).
