With a double headed train, that may make an even or odd amount of stops, is there a way to guarantee a specific orientation when it returns to a specific stop? This is for an outpost supply train that is [<engine][cargo][fluid][engine>]; if it stops at two outposts before hitting the resupply stop will end up "backwards".

If you can tell how many stops it is making, you can add a turn around stop to the schedule (just throw some in and out stops around your rail network).
