TLDR: with 2.0 we lost the 2 chunks 4 (tanks-) wagons parking
Please see this Reddit post for images and videos
With the new rails systems, the smallest curve is about 14 units radius, previously on v1.X was like 12 units; The new system is really cool but with this, we lost the possibility of making a small 2 chunks block that contains a 4 tank-wagons train, this is due the last train now been over a curve vs been on a straig line.
The tankers been unable to unload in curves where an anoying issue since the inception of the game, especially when a normal cargo wagon where able to (un)load on any curve (Is in fact on the start menu simulations). In the case I'm showcasing is even more anoying since the wagon looks totally straig and is on just the begining of a "gentle" curve (vs f v1.x curves).
So please Wube (Kobarex, Erandel, Raiguard, or anyone) can you help us fix this long-standing issue?
I(and many others) just want small compact bases with 4-wagon trails filled with water or lube T.T .
I'll share this post in Reddit and the Factorio forum with the hope of more people sharing more context to this issue

Re: WUBE please fix pump to tanker load on curves
An ugly solution is use a pusher locomotive so that you don’t waste straight rail on the locomotive.
A cleaner solution would be to allow the station signal to be on the first part of the curve.
