Your func_train needs an origin brush. You know how to use target and targetname right?

Entity 1-
key: target
value: first_path

key: targetname
value: a_train

Entity 2-
key: target
value: second_path

key: targetname
value: first_path

Understand? First entity targets the second entity and so on.

I make simple brush + origin brush, then i func_train them. Then i simply add target to bla and make path_corner, with targetname bla.

When i compile my map, my train jumps somewhere, like 40 units away from there where it should be...

The origin brush tells the train where it needs to sit on the path_corner. If you want the train to sit on top of the path_corner, place the origin brush below the train. If you want it below the path_corner, place the origin on top. The train will spawn at the first path_corner with its origin brush where the first path_corner is.
