It has twelve stops and intersects with the Blue Line at Central Station, Mushroom Line at Mushroom Island and Gamermans line at the Utmost South Station. Other notable Stations are [[Spawn|The Spawn]] and Old Ardakazia. The Northern section of this line is very scenic, as the track is elevated above ground (see Image). | ||

The further South you go on the Red Line, you can see that you are leaving civilisation further and further behind: The side of the track becomes littered with holes, either from caves or desperate miners digging for resources, you pass more and more Ghost Stations, where the minecart doesn't stop and even after arriving at your station, you will have to walk further until you find settlements.

The Utmost South Station at z7425 is the furthest that finished and active railways will take you from Spawn. The distance to spawn is outlined by unusual landscapes and sparse settlement. This line is the longest on the server stretching from the mentioned z7425 all the way to z-637 (Northlake Village), which amounts to 8062 Blocks. | ||

The Blue Line consists of the main Light Blue Line, that Services all stations in an (approximate) line from West to East and the Dark Blue Line that currently skips a station in favour of a more scenic route. Close to spawn this line runs mostly underground at around y57, but newer additions, further from spawn, have varying heights from y35 to y79. In the underground sections there is often little to see except for the occasional underwater glass tunnel or short looks at large cave systems. Meanwhile the new overground sections to the West allow for a scenic view of | The Blue Line consists of the main Light Blue Line, that Services all stations in an (approximate) line from West to East and the Dark Blue Line that currently skips a station in favour of a more direct and scenic route. Close to spawn this line runs mostly underground at around y57, but newer additions, further from spawn, have varying heights from y35 to y79. In the underground sections there is often little to see except for the occasional underwater glass tunnel or short looks at large cave systems. Meanwhile the new overground sections to the West allow for a scenic view of untouched landscapes and the city Snorp. This line intersects with the Red Line at Central Station and with the ''Copper Line ( a series of Ghost Stations )'' at the recently completed Kasuto Rail Junction. Later on at GCorp and Fern Junction it intersects with the Ardakaz Express, Great Chinese Railway and Doge Rail. | ||

This Route connects Fern Junction (and by extension GCorp) to the North Farlands Station and the adjacent China build. It is the longest straight rail line without a stop, in fact you will be set to AFK if you ride it from start to finish without typing in chat. It was built by [[Milkydragon69]] and [[GingM8]]. It stretches over 5000 Blocks and takes over ten minutes to ride. The southern stretches can also be dangerous at night but with innovative cactus technology the builders hope to ward off any Zombies that want to turn you into a snack. Currently the track is not safe for villager or other mob transport, as the tunnel is mostly 2 blocks tall, GingM8 has spoken about needing to raise the height to three blocks. | This Route connects Fern Junction (and by extension GCorp) to the North Farlands Station and the adjacent China build. It is the longest straight rail line without a stop, in fact you will be set to AFK if you ride it from start to finish without typing in chat. It was built by [[Milkydragon69]] and [[GingM8]] funded by generous donations by other players. It stretches over 5000 Blocks and takes over ten minutes to ride. The southern stretches can also be dangerous at night but with innovative cactus technology the builders hope to ward off any Zombies that want to turn you into a snack. Currently the track is not safe for villager or other mob transport, as the tunnel is mostly 2 blocks tall, GingM8 has spoken about needing to raise the height to three blocks. At the ultimate northern stop there is a board with the names of contributors. | ||

Apart from the unfinished Copper Line there way more Ghost Stations. Many of the known stations are stations that either Red or Blue lines do not stop at and that you can see on your journey between stops. Other than these there are believed to be an ''unknown number'' of stations in different states of disrepair just waiting to be discovered.

== | == Expanding the Railway Network == | ||
As stated in the beginning, players are always welcome to expand upon the existing rail infrastructure. In the spawn library under the education section there is a guide on how to build railways effectively. There are rumoured to be plans to finish the Copper Line and fully integrate it into the Railway System. In addition to that there are, as of now, many Lines and stations that are functional but not on the dynamap or the railway map in this Wiki. | As stated in the beginning, players are always welcome to expand upon the existing rail infrastructure.

====== Who do I ask if I want to build something? ====== | |||
If you are just building track, not directly connected to the network, you don't have to ask anyone for permission ( unless you are going through someone’s build or something). If you want to continue building from a station with a dead-end where the track is intended to continue, it is a good idea to ask the person who build the station or that part of the track in particular and see if they have any plans for it. You can ask a moderator if you're having trouble figuring out who built what. | |||
====== How do I add my line to the Dynmap? ====== | |||
The Railway Network and Project Galcies have the Route Data that the Dynmap uses in their source code here on the Wiki. You can edit it by pressing edit source code and scrolling down to the Route Data section. Here you can add to or copy the format used for the existing lines to add your line or addition. But you have to be very careful when editing, the Route Data can be quite finicky and it can take a few attempts to get everything correct. It is also easy to accidentally mess up the data for other lines, so be very careful!! If you don't want to or can't add it yourself you can message [[Starstriker1012|Starstriker]] on the discord or /mail Starstriker1012 ingame, though it can't be guaranteed that it will then be added anywhere near instantly. It is also good to know, that if you're building track above ground, it is very hard to accurately add lines with a lot of (also small) turns and bends so that it looks good in the dynmap when zoomed in. | |||
