Description
Build your own railway track (in creative mode) and vehicles using these components! Part of the DH Train Engineers railway system for planets in Space Engineers! World download demonstrating it can be found at: https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=563217228

You can copy and paste these blueprints into your world (and on a planet). You need to have both "stations project to voxel" and "destructible blocks" unchecked in world settings for it to work properly. Tutorial video can be found at: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4BZHMK3lGP0

After building your railway, you can paste existing vehicles into the world and mount them onto the track (using the vehicle mounting tool and/or the skycrane, both included below). This collection also contains blank vehicle chassis, both of locomotives and wagons, for you to build your own vehicles.
