Trains

The train would be an awesome addition to Minecraft. We have minecarts, be having coal powered trains like the furnace minecrart would be cool. We could be able to pull large amounts of wood or other items in storage carts, and you could make a massive railway that could take you across long distances. Wouldn’t it be cool if we could walk around on each of the carts without falling off, and we could sleep in a cart, and build up to a certain amount of blocks on a cart. It would keep the blocks on the trailer and it would allow players to create their own trains! It would be awesome!!

    Add the Floatater block to create large structures as transportation

    Ships, planes, balloons, large locomotives with wagons allowing players to be creative and giving more movement to the Minecraft world that is still very static, giving movement to the game's blocks in a way that Chaos Cubed was not capable of. As the block's movement is slow, it will maintain an appropriate negative point of speed that will make players look for other means of locomotion such as ghast, elytra, etc. but it will be a great acquisition for the construction community and even for survival. Just imagine large fleets of ships and several players crossing the Minecraft ocean, it's beautiful. Even with the current limitations of the block, it would be incredible, and the block already exists, it was already built in the Poisonous Potato Update, just add it.

    As the Floater is not that appealing, it could easily be made with redstone + slow fall potion + breze rods + iron.

    An engine made of a blast furnace would go faster than a normal furnace and if we use nether it’s instead of iron to craft recipe it would be a lot more resistant and go a lot faster and hold more stuff

    Please allow for a player to place any type of chest into a mine cart esp shulker boxes and enderchests.

    Recipe for steam engine might be
    Stone empty iron/copper/netherite
    Barrel furnace piston
    Chain minecart iron/copper/netherite

    For an electric train (no fuel needed but requires charging through redstone maybe through activator rail)
    Stone empty empty
    Redstone block piston piston
    Chain minecart iron/copper/netherite.

    A carriage will be
    Stone stone stone
    Glass plank glass
    Chain minecart chain

    Replace plank with chest for a cargo train
    Replace plank with bucket to hold liquids (could be useful to transfer loads of lava at once

    For a coupling (to attach trains together if they were made separate or to make trains that auto detach and connect)
    Iron empty iron
    Chain iron block chain
    Iron empty iron

    Right click to link the first train
    Right click again to connect to the second train.
    After connected punch to remove (will drop like lead)
    Can only connect trains 3 blocks away max
    Use dispensers to place couplings automatically and they will bind to the two nearest trains.
    Pistons to break them
    Hoppers will collect couplings when dropped.

    Add train station rail: trains stop exactly on it until powered again.they keep the direction they were going in the fist place.

    Allow blocks that allow vector movement through redstone controls. Please we could do so much with it.
