Lumber Mill Naming Problem

Lumber Mill has two tracks - lumber and logs. When I name either one the other adopts the same name.
This makes it impossible for me to direct trains to deposit and pickup.
Works ok in 2019
 
This is the same as it always was. The name is the asset and the "drive to" command allows you to select which track you want.
 
Without identifying the actual asset (i.e. its kuid) it is impossible to comment. But many industry assets that have multiple tracks all use the same industry name but, when using a Drive To command, the different tracks usually appear with different identifying labels (e.g. timber in, sawn logs out, etc) as popout lists.
 
OK, now I see the required steps. Direct the logging train to the overall asset - ABC Loggers.
THEN
The there is a secondary selection process displayed where you can select the specific target such as pickup of finished lumber. In the past I probably stumbled into the proper steps and promptly forgot them.

It is that secondary selection option that was the key.
Thanks!
