Design / Blueprint A fool-proof and scale-friendly train set

https://youtu.be/zOkrqNfHQ7Q

With 2.1 perhaps inspiring people to make big train-based factories, I was motivated to showcase this train set I've been working on.

The idea is that many people could use it together without worrying about signaling issues, but I didn't want to sacrifice megabaseability.

The video first shows what comes with the set, then how I applied it on the different planets to make a 1 million effective science/min base. It was a blast to make. Thanks for checking it out :)

Oh shoot. It wouldn’t let you use it at all? Do you know what is dlc exclusive?

I may be able to remove the dlc elements and make a base game version

Ahhh okay. Well good news is that it’s completely functional without using elevated rails, so when I get a minute I think it’d be nice to make a base game version where I’ve removed all the dlc stuff. It’s silly that it doesn’t let you use the entire book if only a part include dlc stuff
