Then select the city name in the display on the right. This pulls up a menu of the factories in the location. You can rail these out subject to your limits, and right click the distination city. Possible locations for factory arrivals are highlighted in green.

One thing I learned after some early frustration. Deselect all ground units in the right panel before you try and move the factories, otherwise you'll be limited to moving to cities in range of those units max rail range only. It would be nice if units were not selected when the factory icon is depressed and players click on a city.
