At the start of the turn I turn on depots ('n' key) and the supply lines ('8' key) to give the red lines. Any depot that traces a line to a front line unit is set to priority 4. Any depot that traces a line to a rear unit or airbase is set to 3. If an airbase is in the same hex it is set to 3. Any pre-war depot is set to 1. Any post war depot is set to 2. I then handle the large railyard depots differently. These typically include Warsaw, Minsk, Smolensk, Kiev, Dneprotovsk, etc. If the depot has > 40K freight (depending on which one we are talking about) then I set it to 1 to push the freight eastwards. If it is < 5K freight I set it to priority 4 to fill back up again. This will cause the eastward depots to draw it down without having to pull freight from further west and put more strain on the rail net. This is the 'pulse' techniques that has been brought up in several places.
