Neg Octavious. Every thing still has a limited down time,objects at the field that can be supplied are down for 2 hours, delivery of cargo reduces that time by 30 mins.

.."delivery of cargo reduces that time by 30 mins."

OK, trains and convoys spawn every 10 min.  So is Octavius correct that a field object that has a downtime of 120 minutes, will be up in 30 minutes (3 supplies + 30 min elapsed time) unless the convoy/train is destroyed?

You are correct Mickey, sorry, I forgot that 30 minutes goes too :)

Actually It probably bit longer or shorter depending on if convoys otw already? Or supplies convoys start only when fields down, and the one already otw are empty?

If convoys are destroyable, then it is possible for the delivery (via truck convoy) to be continuously destroyed, thus cutting the supply line to the field.  Am I missing something?

Oct, I asked the same question here:
http://www.hitechcreations.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=48297

I think that the arrival of a train/convoy just shortens the down time, it is not dependant on it.  Stores at a field will be rebuilt in 2 hours if someone camps the train/convoy, or roughly 30 minutes if the trains/convoys arrive on schedule.
