I have added a custom domain and it is still in the process of being validated. I have added the txt and cname records and the dns propagation has successfully been completed. I have tried multiple times removing and re-adding the domain, but nothing helps.

It may take up to a day for DNS records to be validated and a certificate to be issued.

Sure, I will wait the 24 hours and respond with what happens. Thanks for advising.

(This is on the condition that the DNS records are absolutely correct.)

I have checked the DNS records and they are correct. I have waited the 24 hour period, but it is still validating ownership.

I assume both the CNAME and TXT show up with green check marks in Railway's dashboard?

How do I access that? I do not see the CNAME and TXT on the dashboard.

Go to your service > networking > there should be a button that has the string "DNS."

It does not seem like it is there. Please check the screenshot.

"Validating domain ownership" is related to a misconfigured TXT record. Did you copy the TXT record using the copy button instead of manually selecting the text?

"Validating domain ownership" is related to a misconfigured `TXT` record. Did you copy the `TXT` record using the copy button instead of manually selecting the text?

Yes, I clicked the copy button and pasted the value. I have removed and re-added the domain multiple times. The DNS propagation shows all checks. Maybe it is a backend railway issue?

Try using the 'dig' command (on WSL if you have Windows) on your machine with the domain as a target to help troubleshoot. I had this issue and fixed it through that it should show you info on the DNS records.

I tried that and an A records shows with a value of "192.64.119.94". The weird thing is that I do not see an A record on Namecheap->Advance DNS.

Are there any conflicting CNAME/AAAA/ALIAS records on the target domain?

No, there are no other CNAME records. There are no AAAA or ALIAS records at all. I have just added an A record with 1.1.1.1 to override the ghost A 192.64.119.94 record by Namecheap.

I'd just try migrating to Cloudflare's DNS service. Might solve this weird headache...
