Using rail my Rebs try to go through the north to get anywhere from Fort Sumpter! 500-800 days!

Have you included fort artillery in the stack. They are immobile unit which moves VERY slowly without rail which isn't present in the fort.

No I did not include them and even if I did why would they go through the North?

Ok, this is difficult to reproduce it. To what region are you trying to get from Ft Sumter. Can you press del key until all movement orders are canceled and retry to path the unit to neighbouring regions.

After taking Fort Sumpter I try to move them to Hampton Roads by rail and it does this.

Re-check the attachment, mate. We can't see it. What about the available rail capacity?

Actually it does not seem to matter whether I use rail or not...

Not a bug. Is the first turn. NC and Tenesee didn“t secede, so they are impassable. You have to wait 2 or 3 turns, to move this stack...

The Tennessee and NC are not accessible until it secedes. The game is trying to plot a course around TN,NC and KY through IL, OH and WW to go where you want. No wonder it takes 500 days (no rail in enemy territory).
So, you should go to Rome, Georgia, and wait for TN to secede.

Oh wow thanks first time in my game that has ever happened!
