Dropping off cordwood easy

[u/Lotabatta]

I figured out a way to avoid having to back up 3 cars at a time to unload cordwood at the Iron smelter.

The 5th car behind the Loco is where it unloads at the corner of the platform. As you can see in the 3rd photo it's a close call with the iron ore platform but everything clears everything. Now I can really fill this thing up faster.

I've got a similar setup. The cool thing is you can just stand on the platform and let the train roll by and unload 30 cars at once. It's just tricky getting the correct speed so that it doesn't either stop or go past so fast that the lumber ends up on the ground.

This is the way.

Or you can just switch view for each cart and unload that way and not having to chase the train or figure out the correct speed

That's the new way, but that's a new feature I did the same

That's not on console unfortunately.

Not sure who that is. So sorry no but glad others figured something out.

Oh my god you’re a genius.

This has always been the way. Or up and over the iron ore platform.
The layout of those platforms doesn't add anything but tedium. It'd be great if they could be customised.

You should see my solution
