Main article: Tutorial:Trains#Calculating throughput

The maximum throughput of a single train can be calculated in stacks/min or fluid m³/min using the following values:

• Total round-trip duration of the train
• Amount of Freight Cars
• Storage capacity of each Freight Car (currently 32 stacks or 1600 m³)

Then, the equation is:

${\text{Throughput}}={\frac {{\text{Storage capacity}}\times {\text{Amount of carriages}}}{\text{Round trip duration}}}$

E.g. for a train of three carriages that completes the round trip in five minutes:

${32\times 3 \over 5}=19.2$ stacks per minute or ${1600\times 3 \over 5}=960$ m³ per minute.

For more detailed info see the section on throughput on the Tutorial page linked above.
