Why didn't Han just go and get more co-axium?

Science Fiction & Fantasy Asked on July 11, 2021

In Solo: A Star Wars Story, there’s a train heist sequence at the start

So, they end up losing what they stole and spend the rest of the film making up for their loss.

Why didn’t the crew retrieve their loot from this obvious location?

Because the other cars on the train didn't contain coaxium.

Beckett quickly found the train car that contained the coaxium, and the three set to work attaching cables from the AT- hauler to the cargo.

All the information provided in the film seems to clearly indicate there is no other coaxium on the train:

1st - we know from Beckett and later Dryden that finding this much coaxium at once away from a heavily guarded base is exceedingly rare. The amount that Beckett was trying to steal would have been an unprecedented heist. Assuming there was 12 times that amount lying around (each car loaded) seems very unlikely.

2nd - Given their plan the easiest car to steal would have been the last one on the train as it would only have to be decoupled on one side. Instead, Beckett went to a specific car further ahead in the train and cut it open to make sure he had the right one.

3rd - Neither Beckett's gang or the "Marauders" that show up show any interest in any other car. Everyone is after the same one.

And lastly is the detail you already mentioned. The train didn't explode as it plunged into the ravine.
