Thank you for answering! It has helped me, and I think I will try to solve the issue with the help of another tool or even manually. Learning network analysis on its own seems to take a bit too much time, hopefully I will be able to understand it in the future.

Hi guys! I am using ArcGIS 10.4.1. So I'm trying to create a network database using a shapefile of about 1000 lines and a shapefile of about 2000 points. The lines shows a railway-system, and the pointfile shows the stations along the railway. I have tried creating a network database but am failing. I have tried using some tutorials on the basic but am struggling to understand what information is required to create a network that will work in the end. So to start with, what information is basic to be able to create a network database? Which columns are needed? I have information about the length of the lines and locations of the point but not much more. I do not have any information about the time it takes for the trains to move along the lines. The reason for creating this is to see which stations are passed along certain routes, because I need to remove those routes that go over several stations and only have those that go from one station to another. If there is another tool that can be used for this, that simply takes one point to another and gives an output of which points are overlapping along the railway, that would be greatly appreciated! Here is a picture of how the map looks right now:

Hi Dan, thank you for answering! I tried using the split function, however the issue is that I need information for which points it used to split in the new layer, which only contains the split lines. Say it splits between A and B, and then B and C in the picture below, I would like that information in the new file. Do you know if there is any tool that simply measures the distance between each point using the line to measure?

Hi guys! So I'm working with a dataset with two shapefiles, one with about 2000 points and another shapefile with about 1000 lines bound together which looks something like this (a small part of the total map): The map shows railways and stations along the railway. The points are located on the lines, with the help of the tool Near. What I want is to figure out which points are closest to each other using the line-shapefile, not just measuring the distance straight between the points. This is beacause i want to create links between the stations, and in the existing line-file there are more links (lines) than I have. I have tried looking a bit at the network analysis tools, but cant figure out how to convert it to a network dataset, and I am wondering if there is an easier way of doing this? Feel free to ask questions, since it is a bit difficult describing the issue optimaly for your understanding. I am quite new at GIS, and know only of the basic tools and am still trying to grasp the details. I am using ArcGIS 10.4.1.
