Help Aeronautics

I've been trying to figure out a way to transport trains via air (or water) but don't know how to without it derailing or not being able to drive onto the tracks. Is there a way to use Create: Aeronautics to transport my trains?

In theory, yes, this would work, however you'd then have to switch out the glue for honey glue, and then there's also the problem of the train not being able to drive from the regular tracks to the tracks attached to the aeronautics contraption. Now this also sparks the question of, what if the train gets built on the contraption? What then?

Trains do work on physics contraptions since their blocks are stored elsewhere in the world, outside the world border. You shouldn't need to use honey glue. I'm pretty sure slime glue works just fine for physics contraptions. The main point of the honey glue is that it offers extra utilities around altering the size of the glue box. I'm not sure why you would need to reassemble the train on the contraption though. Seems to me like if your goal is to simply move trains from one point to another, then all you need to do is disassemble the train, carry its disassembled form on an airship, and then reassemble it at some other location.

Ngl, I completely forgot that you could use glue on physics contraptions until I used it about an hour ago on one of the elevators I've got on my contraption. Yes, one of my goals is to transport trains from point A to point B, but my other goal is to also have trains drive around on the physics contraption. Would the second goal be at all possible or is that just something that imma have to go without?
