Throughput: not stated by the designer

String exported by Factorio 2.0.60.0. Decoded and checked by this site; not test-imported in the game.

Which trains and belts does it fit?

It unloads 4 cargo wagons and merges two stations into 4 output belts. The wagon count comes from the designer's train-limit circuit, which divides the stored amount by 160 for 40 stacks per wagon. A splitter filter sends items that do not belong to an active provider chest and raises a warning, a combinator sets the train limit from what is in storage, and a stacker holds 4 waiting trains. Express belts carry the output.

Blueprint string

Copy the string and use Import string on the shortcut bar. It was exported from Factorio 2.0.60; this site decoded it but did not import it in the game. For 8-wagon trains the designer's note says the circuit divisor would need to be 320.

Unloaders for 3 or 4 wagons and 4 x 4 layouts

All train stations

This station is a 4 x 4 unloader: 4 wagons onto 4 belts, with chests behind each wagon. No 3-wagon unloader and no design that merges onto 2 belts is in this release; a 4-wagon station like this one is the nearest, and a 4 to 2 balancer after its output reduces it to two belts.
