I Tried Building A Metro System In MINECRAFT?!

[@Peteboi64932]

Alex i got an idea: bring it to java (trust me) and install the create mod on the game. This way you can use trains and rails instead of... anvils?

[@radio_marco]

Or the MTR (Minecraft Transit Railway) mod, it's even more sufficient with real trains and real station blocks etc.

[@Markgamer789]

Thats what ive done :) I've built underground trains and lines under a city me and my friends have built

[@dh4rkx634]

i make metro systems in my minecraft builds, and they're heavily inspired by the vancouver skytrain, stations are medium size and minecarts work in the station and can conjoin together, the rail is either elevated or on ground, and stations are simple but complex

[@AlwaysAlexYT]

Ayyy nice! It's good to go for simplicity with complexity :D
