You may have to tweak the program or the data base repeatedly to get it to work. Last time I used one we had a nightly event of trading the boxcars on adjacent sidings. And we never did manage to get a unit train down from the coal mine.
The first operating program we used was a Basic program from the NMRA Bulletin. I had to try debugging things even though my language was Fortran.
It may ignore some cars because it goes through the car list until it finds the first empty of the right type, so some of them never get moved.
Try not to get too many cement hoppers at the flour mill.
