Specify a particular path (track) for a train

Specify a particular path (track) for a train - Railroad Tracks in City

Is it possible to force a train to use a particular section of track to reach a destination? I keep having problems attempting to use a bay platform in a station when they should be using a through platform to get to their destination, and consequently having to reverse and generally get in the way.

EDIT: Another way of looking at this would be to reserve a particular section of track for use by only certain trains.
