Recently I have been seeing x2 trains from a Portal when I use QuickPortalManager. I go in, emit a train and a minute or less a second one appears and I know I did not ask for it. Anyone having this problem or know of a work around? As a side note I have also seen this problem using iPortals when a train is sent to me I get more than one but the second one may not be right after the first one.
QuickPortalManager double trains

Is it the same consist but backwards or missing cars? I have this problem when I have two different trains from the same route going to the same portal or different portal same route. Clear the Quick Portal queues before launching another train, via the surveyor/drive or option menu while in surveyor/drive.

It is the same exact consist, I will try the clear queue to see what happens.

What are portals even for? I only use them to create and delete trains on a straight section of track that goes past a railroad crossing that I just sit the camera by and watch as trains pass it.
It seems that you use Quick drive for emiting the trains in driver mode manually. Quick Portal Manager by pguy work automatic by using only time (hours, minutes)
Scroll to the "Nonscheduled" submenu and select the "Emit Train Now" icon and you will launch the first train in the queue.

QPM v 2/3 has not ''Nonscheduled'' submenu or ''Emit train now''. If you want to add new train from driver mode then you must use User rule menu, in QPM, select Portal, use C(clone) and add new time, you can keep driver and schedule or use a new ones.You can find the examples for QPM in the route and the sessions of DBtogether.

I use QPM to emit trains on schedules and for extras, the non schedule area can do that and you can use a consist or the surveyor train list. The surveyor train consist can be made on the fly.
I believe I also solved my problem by first assigning a default Portal and also checking the "enable ... enhanced mode" check box. More testing needed.

A picture is worth a 1000 words.

After, notice the Emit Train Now, this will only be visible if the portal selected has consist.
Sorry to bump such an old post. But I tried posting about this one other time and no one seemed to know and this seemed like a similar issue. I am trying to link several routes with quick portal v3 to make a rail system. I have all the portals in quick portal set up but every time i send a train from one to the other, when I go to the destination route and open portal manager, it has the arriving train scheduled first and then every car in the consist has its own schedule along with it. It does not seem to be retaining the delay time I have set up either. I know I have gotten this to work before I updated TS12. Just can't wrap my brain around what would be causing this.
I hope this makes since to someone lol
Thank You and once again, sorry for the bump
