Hi

[@NineToes821]

This is one of my favorite vids. My son and I built our own rail system to get around our world faster, just like this one. Sometimes we (he or I) get a little bored with MC because we play it so much, but when that happens, I usually get new ideas from your vids and it renews our interest. Right now, we're turning a zombie dungeon into a loot/XP farm. It means a lot to me for my son and I to have a common interest like that. So, I guess I just wanted to say thanks for helping to keep things interesting for us.

This is great. I used to play MC with my kids when I was in the Army and stationed away from them. My sons grew up and joined the Army and they are now far away. We still connect with games and Discord and spend time just hanging out talking while we play. Great way to keep a relationship going!

What you do in Minecraft is truly art. I wished I had your artistic mind when building. Love watching your videos and builds, keep up the great work!

[@jci8972]

I love the monorail! Maybe have each stop platform themed differently according to the location/building the cart ends on. Like have a uniform basic foundation but add certain minor design features based on location. I’m really looking fwd to what you come up with and how it’ll turn out. I think I’ll add a train line & station to my world. A Lot of work but looks really cool!

[@fjolliff6308]

On the Monorail: I would extend those chiseled stone bricks up using stone brick walls and place a chiseled stone brick 2 blocks above the rail itself to hang a lantern from. It will look awesome with the lights and less odd/unnatural where the rails are actually lit up. Other than that, it looks amazing. I wish they would allow us to make rope fences because that would make it look even better. Great vid! I was expecting it to be more boring (like other monorail vids) but you kept my attention and made the vid really enjoyable.

You can use iron fence as psuedo rope but your right, we need rope/cable fencing in minecraft.

[@shysquirrel4292]

When I played Minecraft I never really used "carts" because I didn't really realise/understand just how useful they are/can be. Seeing Wattles, as well as other KZbinrs, use them has made me want to make a rail line, if I ever get to play Minecraft again.

[@xxDrain]

My first big objective in any world is usually to build a looong railway in the sky. It takes some time before I get the materials, but eventually I always do it. Something about covering great distances quickly and with ease really appeals to me in minecraft. Watching the world below as I go.

Hey Wattles, quick tip: Since you're going to make a Minecraft rail line connecting your world, when future versions become available, why don't you update the world, and travel, idk, 1000 blocks, start a new base and then connect them through the rails? It's a big effort job, but with it, you could talk about things like "lore" in a Minecraft world

[@mobilegames4335]

Wattles, riding on Chicago's rapid-transit-system: "My, what a lovely monorail!"

[@GarNelson1]

I like your monorail design. I've only been playing Minecraft for a bit over four months and you've given me my first major project. I want to travel 500m by minecart in a single direction. An elevated monorail looks a heck of a lot better than just putting 500m of track on the ground. :-) For changes, rather than torches on the chiseled stone brick I put a lantern on one side using one stone brick wall and three spruce fences to center the lantern over the rail.

[@GlitchNOut]

In regards to rails being a friendly mob, obviously Mojang is a friend of Thomas The Train Engine. As in the immortals words of Mr. Robert DeNiro, in Meet The Fockers, "What the hell are you saying Focker? Puff was a magical dragon from the land of Hanolee." But seriously, Wattles. I really loved you monorail design. I'm going to implement it in my world. Really nicely done! Thank you, Sir!

[@derrickvictor8829]

KZbinr’s have time and resources to make things beautiful! It’s awesome! For us regular gamers, it’s all about efficiency. I have rail taking me all over my world, but it’s just elevated rail. It doesn’t look fancy at all. However, it works! Lol

In Java you can do F3 + G to display chunk borders. It's useful for counting out projects like laying rails. In this case 2 chunks would have been 32 blocks and close enough to the 34 count.

Hey Wattles! I'm still pretty green to the minecraft series, but during this whole social distancing in California, I decided to put up a minecraft server and really sink some time into my world. Your guides have been invaluable! I've learned so much from your videos and am having more fun than I ever thought I would with Minecraft. I'm jealous of your design skills - I have a ways to go before I get as good as you - but I've been trying out some of your builds and it's been amazing to see them come to life in my own world!

[@dalipadilla3508]

Newbie here (started playing last year) and I wanted to build a railroad. This helped alot !

[@georgef551]

I have quite a few monorail-style builds in my "Abandoned World" series (3 of them, one spanning about 1 minute, one for 10, and a 3rd that takes about an hour to travel down), if you're close to, or at ground level, I find the best way to handle that is go at least 4 blocks from the rail, and fence it off. Torch the inside as needed to keep the bad ones out. Go 5 or 6 to prevent any "Hiss-Boom" incidents. (That is, if you go 5 blocks between it, and the fence, the fence would be the 6th block, to 5 blocks exist between it, and the rails.) For access if needed, add a gate here and there.

[@ArtisChronicles]

This is almost like the massive project a friend and I did. Something like 112 blocks high and 1500+ blocks long of just rails going to 3+ locations. The last location being the stronghold. It was an awesome Ride that took about 10 minutes to complete, but at the end we added a fun drop straight into water.

[@stopitpj2318]

Wattles you can make the mob farm better by setting up a water stream system that can lead all the mobs to a place where you can kill them. It will be much better and safer. The only downside would be the fact that endermen are scared of water.

Wattles check out the outposts. Sometimes there are Vines growing on the Tower so you could build a Farm for your mossy Stone-Bricks.

[@azoxystrobin]

I call mine the skybridge. 80 blocks high, in stone bricks, 2 blocks wide, 3 blocks wide every 11th block with a torch on it. levers with powered rails one every 3 torches (so every 33 blocks) The lever is on the bridge, so it can be turned off if necessary. The skybridge never turns, never changes height and goes from one end of the map to the other W/E and another one N/S connecting the entire map. If it goes through a mountain, then it goes through the mountain. It's pretty impressive. I don't bother with supports though. That could be very snazzy though.

When I had my metro rail line go up in the air I just use the Redstone Block and place powered rails on that instead of just using regular blocks and using the redstone torch or a lever.

[@kailonsohn8670]

Maybe do a subway and make this rail line more complex, it would be a oportunity to talk about intersections of rails (how use redstone to change directions on a crossing rail) it would be nice, expecialy if you pretend to expand this monorail to other structures in the future.

[@crispyzombieanimation5348]

I think a better method than traveling overland in a minecart is creating a train station at Y-11 and instead of branch mining create tunnels in the cardinal directions N,S,E,W for 2000 blocks, Not only do you get heeps of minerals you also start a railway out to distant location. Just a thought

[@Cosmic_Tortoise]

Note on 1.15.1's minecarts you could use. Using a Detector Rail with some hidden redstone and an Activator Rail, you could have an automatic ejection system from your minecart at the end of the line in the station.

Monorail, actually means it only has 1 rail. The minecarts have 2 rails, because they run on a standard track like a train. A track that is above the ground rather than on the ground, is an elevated train.

[@Sunnifieri]

I made my first rail line and it works! Mine looks a bit crazy but it functions. Thanks for the info!

[@migs7220]

I discovered something. For short stops on a long rail. Like a new in-between nether station. You can have the button in the block space next to the rail and it will still transfer signal. Wish I could draw it out. It looks nice having the empty space instead of being next to a block
