Log delivery out-of-order and undebuggable

8/10 High

Logs arrive in the wrong order on Railway, making it impossible to trace the sequence of events that caused errors. When combined with the 500 logs/sec limit, critical log lines are dropped before they can be inspected, preventing basic debugging and root cause analysis.

Query: “What are the most common pain points with Railway for developers in 2025?”4/7/2026

Lines often turn up in the wrong order making basic debugging impossible... If an error or something unexpected happens on my server to trigger this, I'm often unable to investigate it because the logs arrive in the wrong order and I can't see the action that actually caused it as Railway may have deleted this due to the limit.
