For instance the 2 hexes north of Memel (179,136) and (179,136) typically auto repair at the beginning of Turn 2 and depending on how lucky you were with the 70/30 lottery you can typically see that all the 'yellow' dots connected to these have now become axis railways. Ditto a few around Riga if you managed to capture it in Turn 1.

However, in my H2H game, even though (179,136),(179,136) and Liepaja were all auto-repaired by R.A.D. units some of the the yellow dots around Liepaja converted to rail. All the ones north of Memel remain unusable. Is this W.A.D, a bug or is there some under lying procedure that means it isn't automatic and I've just been unlucky? The ones around Riga seem to have converted normally when a R.A.D. unit there successfully repaired the Rail there.

This was the case in my H2H game:

it all looks WAD to me, in this image the line coming from the east is green - so repaired and connected, so you either repaired something or got lucky with the captures. The first image that line is yellow/red so somewhere there is a broken connection

by the look of it, you've just repaired the connection this turn (the orange hexes?), if so it will flip from yellow to green next turn. In the AI case, the rails around Priekule are connected off image to the east?, in your MP game that linkage is broken somewhere

hexes retain a notional 1% damage in the turn they are repaired, so there is a turn delay in becoming operational
