The time has come to expand our rail network further in minecraft create mod! And it's not going to be possible without a few new contraptions to automate track laying and tunnel boring, and also automate the construction of embankments to hold the rail up! The automated train track layer proves to be a great contraption which I'm sure we'll be using a lot more of in future as we extend our rails further.
We also build a brand new train station at the future location of our next project, a fully automated create mod mining town. I can't wait!

It`s such a shame these villagers will need to be "relocated"... Maybe you could integrate some of the new buildings into the old ones instead of tearing all of them down? Like the old village had a big ore deposit discovered near it, breathing new life into it and fueling expansion and building, turning a small farming communty into a bustling mining town? I think that`s quite a nice story! And, of course, the villagers could remain to represent the miners)
Yeah, I was thinking that he could have repurposed that initial building into being the train station, though I think the rails might have needed to be a few blocks higher.
Why relocate when you can ‘employ’. He did say it would be a mining town. That implies workers, and wouldn’t you know he has a lovely group of natives who know the area, and just need to be taught how to work the machines.
i very much like this option over clearing the village off the map entirely
Even the building that he torn down could have be able to be reused as a station house and simply have the platforms down 1 level
Oh please do that, wasting that village would be such a shame!
You can use contraption controls for deactivating the drills on the tunnel-bore.
Amazing - I knew there must be a way! Ty Ty lol
@@MrBeardstoneYou're welcome!
Good shout that @slimetix. I didn't think of that
@@MrBeardstonethey work for most of the contraption actors (drills, deployers, rollers, etc)
❤❤❤ ❤❤❤❤
Fun fact: Most of what you'll be building are viaducts, not bridges. The main difference between the two is that bridges are built over things (eg; rivers & sea arms), while viaducts are built to maintain height in valleys and low laying areas.
Neeeeerd!!! Lol I actually love random facts
very interesting, can a viaduct have a changing gradient?
A Viaduct is a type of bridge. Try harder NERD.
yes it can@@Fastthings8080
Use a Contraption controller! You can use it on a contraption to prevent certain parts from being used, for example your drills. The best part about the controller is that you can use it while moving as well. The Ponder function explains this very well :) Great video as always!
OMG! My drill train was parked at the end of the line for a while now since it would demolish my stations on it's way to depo. Ponder on contraption controls is quite good, but that should also be expained on actor blocks ponder screens. Thank you for the info, mate!
YES!
You should turn each village and the pillager outpost into stations for different trades and your pillager farm. Build a public house at one station called the BlowHole
i was thinking the same thing!! At least maybe one or two of them
Station for a raid farm.
Ideas for the flower shop idea: “Loco-motion blooms”, “Platform Petals”, “Trackside Treasures”,”Stem-Station Beauty”
I've been watching this series with my kids because I love trains and I wanted to share it with them. They love your trains and were tickled pink when the animal drivers got their little conductors hats. You should absolutely make some kind of small amusement park and fill it with animals riding the rides. I think it would be lovely. Thank you for putting a smile on my children's faces! ❤❤❤
It makes me happy to know I can bring them joy! Say hi from me :)
Absolutely will do!@@MrBeardstone
ngl i really like the village at the top and i think you should keep it! it looks nice and works with the train station and coult easily be adapted into a mining village
hey beard mate, here's an idea for ya. you ever seen those old fashioned mining yards? the ones with the large industrial towers, piping, conveyors and large structures on stilts with a huge hopper under them (of which drop gravel into carriages, trucks and such. you might see where I am going with this already)? well, something like that might help with your new station. Where a train goes under the structures with stilts, aligns with the hopper/s and gets filled with goods! it also might help you come up with new carriage designs for the cargo, irl such carriages are quite boxy like the one fixed onto the "Tunnel Train" and filled with gravel, coal and other goods. so you could draw inspiration from them.
Ha, you are thinking along the same lines as me I see! I think it's gonna have to be a vertical thing because of the space lol
@@MrBeardstone great minds think alike mate! i can't wait to see how you pull it off!
@@MrBeardstone You should set them up like giant hoppers, load from the top and unload from the bottom. Maybe even style some like hopper and/or chest minecarts?
14:13 LOOK AT THE CARRAGE WITH THE CHICKEN “Laying eggs on the job are ya?”
I feel like repurposing the village would be a better use of resources, maybe fix up some of the buildings and such, plus having having the villagers moving around the place would make it feel more alive!
This is the exact reason why I want the Create Mod. I love this world and the machines in it.
IRL a lot of cargo trains are ironically named for there speed like “bullet or thunderbolt”. You should do something like that. Like call the cargo train “the rolling boulder” or you could name it after an animal like some other trains. “The stone elephant” or something. Keep up the great content and work
I think it would be cooler to try and integrate parts of the village. It would feel way more alive that way
for the paving/path maker tunnel train, you could use rollers to pave the path under the train and or have a separate carriage behind set to sloped fill to make a natural ish looking base for the paved tracks from the main carriage serrate carriages on trains (groups of 2 bogeys) have independent inventories and contraption actors from the perspective of the controller things ( same ones as from the lift/elevator)
I think it would be really cool if you rebuilt the village so that the villagers could still live there. So basically build Villager Death Proof. I imagine it would be really cool when you get there and the city is full of life and doesn't just consist of a few dull machines.
I'd really love to see the existing village buildings preserved or enhanced rather than stripped down. I think it would be much more interesting
Would love to see you develop the areas the track goes through. Giant farms, quarries, bustling towns. Really helps create a story and makes the world feel less empty!
i'd say instead of completely leveling the village maybe you should adapt it, build around it and then make it mesh with the mining facility; say make the villagers into workers or something
Here's a name idea for the mining town name area, the one named stone valley peaks right now, you could call it Acacia Heights.
I honestly love this series to death, I've tried watching others and they simply can't compete! Your designs for both trains and buildings are awesome to see unfold, I hope to see this series thrive for a long while!
create: extended flywheels makes the flywheels spin on trains, but only when they're on the sides
11:07 yeah, separate carriages have separate inventories and based on some testing i did for a 1.18 train base there doesn’t seem to be a way to connect them up on the train itself
You snagged my attention when you mentioned getting flywheels spinning on trains, there is a mod that can do that for you! It's called Extended Flywheels. It adds a whole bunch of flywheel variants, and it makes flywheels on the sides of trains spin as if they were the train's own wheels. It's purely aesthetic, but I think you might like it!
i think for the mining town, maybe having a tunnel into an underground vault area for storage of the factories etc that comes out near the station would look cool
Its crazy that you have already played a thousand days The grind is real
You could integrate the storage/loading warehouse into the mountain. I think that would look awesome, that building could then help bridge that area to possible expand the village area... Just a thought
If you’re using create steam and rails, you can use a conductors whistle to summon a train to your location (if the train uses a conductor as the driver, and there is a way to the location. Then, you can use a personal schedule to send the train to a given location, effectively a semi-automatic train.
Considering your track laying skills, I think you either need to install quite a few bypasses allowing for trains to go back and forth between both tracks as needed, or you may need to put in a few "roundabouts" areas of track where there is a large circle that can act as hubs should you need to break off from the main line and head in various directions
You can use the extended flywheels mod to make the flywheels rotate but im not sure if the front one will spin or not. I guess you can experiment It also has a lot of cool looking flywheels
an interesting idea for the village, you could instead of destroying the entire village you could upgrade all of the houses and give the mining village the double purpose of being a trading 'hall' it'd also be a different building style then the industrial buildings back at your base.
I kinda think you should have a bypass track or two on the new station so that cargo trains don't get held up by passenger trains and vice versa
It would be really cool to see a truss bridge of some sort for your railway since it's quite industrial
I hope the villagers all get jobs in the new mining district. Maybe as train drivers or just as lads to occupy some ascetic dwellings. Or even have one get a job at that flora store thing. In other news, I'm sure Flying Beardman and Logomotive are excited about the extension to the railway even if they don’t end up traveling the new rails often. Still, glad to see the trains have access to even more rail.
21:20 the voice crack killed me
Ideas for florist: Trackside Tulips, Station Stems, Petal Express
You can use the rollers to break blocks just like drills, except they won't damage the tracks. I'd also recommend semaphores from the Create: Steam and Rails mod; I use those combined with nixie tubes, and it's so much easier to see what the signal says! I believe there is a mod that makes flywheels on trains spin, but it uses its own flywheels so the standard ones aren't affected. I *think* it's called something like Extended Flywheels. (Disclaimer: I haven't tried this one yet, so this is just going from my recollection of the mod description.) EDIT: Since posting this I've looked into Extended Flywheels a little more, and apparently it's only supported through Create 0.5.0 and Minecraft 1.19.2. So, probably not an option.
21:21 - That voice crack was legendary
ahahah fr
just have to say your music choices are immaculate, so entertaining to listen to during the montages
Ngl i really enjoyed that POV driving section part idk it was just really fun to watch for some reason, as always great job
I love how you have the power to erase whole villages, ecosystems, mountains, and absolutely humongous amounts of land
I absulutelly love your create Series! Hope it never stops!
I had to point it out 😂 I had a good laugh at your voice cracking around the 21:23 mark. Really enjoying this series, you've done a fantastic job!
I love your station design, but, I think that a big industrial city needs a big industrial central station. Perhaps you should add some canopies and a bigger building with a waiting area? Also I suggest that you add that third bypass rail because the station will create a bottleneck and will reduce your T H R O U G H P U T
Railrrouds and tearing down villages of natives. Ah yes, the true Industrial Revolution experience XDD
Waiting for the bridge mania happening next week! Also, love your videos and thanks for the content @MrBeardstone!
I agree with all of the comments saying to integrate the village into your mining town, but I also think that you could build your freight line to the other side of the village, so that there's a place for people and a place for items to get on trains. You could just branch it off of the track going to your base and then have it go around and reconnect. Just an idea. Love the vids!
Love the trains, sence your in a village why not use the villagers as passenger. Can't wait to see what you do to the village. You could probably get away with a narrow gage mining train running throw the town and mined. Just like how they use to in the gold rush. Good luck on your adventure and safe travels.
It is really satisfying to see your perspective while riding a train.
That driller train looks like something out of an old spy movie. Something the main villain would tie you to a track and wait for.
It might be that since the vault kept clipping behind the main "engine" it did not count for storage. One idea would be to have extra barrels near where you head is, the connect them with hoppers that feed *into* the vault?
In my opinion that large building next to railway could have been a fitting rail station. Idk just looks fitting
This is probably the only series on youtube that i consistently watch and enjoy
My favourite series on KZhead right now ❤
Hey, I don't know if you will ever read this, but if you want to focus on a villager breeder, you could have 2 trains that are dedicated to carry villagers from the breeders that can circle around all locations and bring the villagers in. The trains can be based on the Hogwarts Express and in the Chronicles of Narnia series ('GWR 7800 Class 7802 Bradley Manor' and the 'GWR 4900 Class 5972 Olton Hall' - if you want the models) and have these be driven by passive pillagers. Pillagers will look quite the train driver/pilot or whatever they are called across different countries.
This series makes me so happy. Thank you!
keep this up man :)
Grew up in coal and steel country in eastern USA. With loading stone, coal, or even grains it was done from the top and unloaded from the bottom or tipped dumped. Also the area in your main base turnaround would be a good place for a water tower to refill the train.
You should name the mining train "The Borealis" Like bore, as in mining
Absolutely love your content, been binge watching it
Why not turn part of the village into an actual Town? I think aesthetically it would be pretty pleasing. Might have to rebuild or remodel some of the houses to look a bit better. Trains in the real world go through towns and cities, would only make sense.
might be an idea to keep a few stacks of exp blocks in any backpacks/trains you have and take around with you for tool and lighting purposes
Preach it lol
Wish i could subscribe multiple times. This man deserves it
This series is so good!
I say that building would have been a nice train station. Just would have had to change the blocks
i usually get bored of youtubers when i follow their series, but here i actually wait for the next video, keep it up!
I think you should have kept the villager building and turned it into a train station, also might be an idea. To add some log stacks, and maybe some bulk storage near the warehouse
Great name for the village would be Gemstone Peak Quarry
2:02 he sais it soo emotionlessly XD and exactly like an owner of a big company XD very very love the series. please continue
12:43 The train going reverse cause of the creepers got a chuckle from me. At least they only blew part of the track up... the creeper getting drilled later was also funny.
that "i look forward to destroying this building" was so personal 😭😭💀
Maybe have a branch line after the station that would go to a storage yard you put else where near the town, and just have switches to move to the brabch line towards this storage yard. Also when you planning to put in a round house?
this is one of the best create series on youtube man.
I have never seen someone so motivated with the create mod
16:15 the random elephant appearing with everything cutting off and you looking at it like "how did you get up here?" i love
Very clever machine made there for rail embankment. You really showed CREATE
the mining outpost station would have looked really cool if it was built on big stilts, maybe with the existing building next to it being reworked into a large station house
How many hours of gameplay do you do in each recording? reaching 1000 days in this short amount of time is crazy but then again your builds are so decorated and well done
Many lol. I play about 8 hours a day on average, edit for a few, a video takes 2-3 days :)
@@MrBeardstone love the dedication, cant wait to see what your world will look like in a year
New post less go
Damn it, Beardy... You could have converted that building into one heck of a sweet train station...
Pfft, not big enough. We'll get there lol
please don't destroy the village. You can use the village as the area for your workers to live. You can create your mining factory near the village
I like how the mobs look likethey're so excited over the weird contraption that's digging through their natural habitat xD
“‘Jiggery pokery!’ *Said Harry in a fierce voice.* "Hocus pocus … squiggly wiggly …" "MUUUUUUM!" *Howled Dudley, tripping over his feet as he dashed back towards the house.* "MUUUUM! He’s doing you know what!"
An idea: why not make a circle around the small central mound, it give's you more option for different path and at the connections you could make a different track for a mining train. Would it be possible to make an underground station for it? The idea is for you will probably transport most if not all mining resource underground anyway, why not having a main conveyor connected to all factory's storage to a underground station?
I randomly found your channel while looking up create mod videos, absolutely love your channel
The storage yard could be build integrated into the mountain and then have the freight train, coming in at a lower level being loaded from the top, so just the transport belts and interfaces have to be near the tracks
Imagine if the drills protrude out more to look like a very big drill
Beardstone just casually relocating locals just because they settled in the area crucial for his industry, and the fact that all of this happens on Savanna biom makes it so much better
"I have a plan. and that plan is going to start with me going to bed" story of my life
You had a lot of bandits trying to rob your train on that train track building montage.
Florist Shop : Either "Tulips to Kiss" or "Stem Sell"
This is amazing, Thanks for the content!
The Vault needs to be on the same Cart as the Drills to work :)
build for the minecity a monorail train that will transport miners and mined stuff down to the station where the stuff will be transported to your base back. That will be great!
This series is one of the best series as of now tbh
I would have just integrated the train station into the existing townhall building. Very nice video 👍
Lol, I love that bit with the elephant as he's destroying the building... just the perfect silly cut. Made me giggle
I want to see you build a proper trainyard with a railway turntable! I think actually making one would be fairly simple, if resource intensive, but I'm not sure how a train would actually interact with one.
The village is super cute! Itd be a waste to just throw it away, possibly making it look like a small town grown up, it would reduce the amount of work you had to do and could give new inspiration on buildings.
I'd recommend setting an astericks * for the train station name on the display board to show current station rather than the station it's at.
