If I send 10 tons, it usually sends it by truck and receives it by truck (the trucks can only hold 10 tons each). And - it doesn't seem to matter what way it sends the gift in the gifting city, when you load the receiving city, it could be delivered the same way or it might be delivered a different way. Sometimes it will choose to send it by train, sometimes it will send it by truck, and sometimes it will send it by both. The really strange thing is that I can bulldoze all of the delivery truck garages from the sending city, and just have 1 delivery truck at the receiving city, and it will still send the gift. Even though I have the train freight terminal set up and everything should work, it doesn't. I can't do it - if I remove all of the trade depot/port delivery trucks from both cities, the gifting city will not send the gift. Researching your question, I've played a few different scenarios now, trying to force the cities to use the train to deliver the resources. There is no way to force the gift to be sent via rail.One of the two cities must have at least one delivery truck garage - it doesn't have to be in the railway trade port, it can be in any trade depot.After the gift has been sent, save and load the receiving city and wait for the delivery. When you send the gift, let the sending city run long enough to see the message that the gift has been sent, and watch the resource to make sure the entire gift has shipped.Set the resource options in the trade port Global Management tab to either "Use Locally" or "Import".(I know you said you already have this, but I mention it in case it helps someone else reading this) Both cities need a trade port with rail terminals and a storage lot for whatever resource you're shipping. It has been my experience that if you try to send a gift from a city to one that is not connected, it should give you an error or not allow you to select that city for gifting (so that you don't lose the resources)
