Hey folks.
I have industry in two different places due to availability of oil reserves.
The initial industry park has its own cargo train station, and since the other industry is far away, I added another cargo train there as well.
TL;DR Does having an internal cargo line from one industry point to another, serve any purpose and if so, what kind of purpose would that be?
EDIT: I'm talking about CS2.

Are you talking CS1 or CS2?
If you're talking CS1, generic industry only produces goods, and only shops take goods, so you won't need any train link between two generic industry areas.
if you're talking CS2 or CS1 specialised industry or industries DLC, the supply chain is more complicated, and you may benefit from having better connections between industry areas.
For instance, in CS1, an a forest extractor may send uncut logs to the sawmill in the same area, or may send it to the sawmill across town. So a train connecting the two timber areas could be useful (and why the advice is generally to stick to only one zone of each type).
