Lightweight Global Rail Network

191 KM of track fully optimized for phase 5 completion using only rail logistics to move items between factories. Ready for hundreds of simultaneous automated trains. Designed to be lightweight in terms of the number of foundations used and working with the map instead of floating above it. This was built for my starter saves when I don't feel like spending 40+ hours building a global rail logistics network.

For version 1.0 / Mod free

Features:

  • Just the rail network, no power or facilities included. Designed to easily modify and hack depending on your playthrough needs
  • All routes selected based on efficient global logistics. All routes have a purpose!
  • Minimum to no clipping of rail vehicles and environment
  • All the rail network needed for phase 5 completion without drones or trucks or belts between factories.
  • Minimalistic design that follows the contours of the land
  • Fully signalized. Supported 300+ simultaneous automated trains in my playthrough
  • Overengineered grade separated interchanges. Highway engineers were involved
  • Everything built without blueprints or mods for that organic look
  • 2 slightly obscene mountain railways. We have trains. No need for conveyor lifts.
  • 57 stations with empty platforms. 4 Major multiplatform depots
  • Ready to supply Lubbo's 150GW Nuclear Power Plant (https://satisfactory-calculator.com/en/megaprints/index/details/id/1485/name/150GW+Nuclear+Power+Plant). Just nuke the northwest rail depo and supply all the NP_*_OUT stations with the appropriate ore.
  • 1 starter train at each start location to support earlier game rail supported exploration
  • Allow for 240 Megawatt idle draw + 150MW per operating train. Be sure you have the power to spare before attaching to your power grid!
  • Brush clearance and explosives recommended to clear tracks of vegetation and rocks on a fresh map!

Future versions will focus on denoodling rails, addressing capacity bottlenecks, and ensuring all supports and rails are not floating.
