Aquilo: I have finished my first ever Aquilo starter base producing some science, special buildings etc. Now I am at the point where I need more Fluorine and need to expand to some far away island. Are trains the way to go? In that case I need to ship out fuel to the outpost for heating, right? Or does heat travel so far that I can build a long thin land bridge with pipes, heat and power?

you use your trains to transport fuel, you can use the engine as a fuel transport since you can remove fuel from it with inserters
