[[File:train-example-1.png|thumb|512px|To form a train place locomotives and wagons on the track]]

== Basic ==
To build a train, place a [[Diesel Locomotive|locomotive]] and one or more wagons [[Vehicle/Train/Wagon|wagon]] adjacent to each other on the track. A symbol will appear when they'll be connected. Further discussion on train building can be found [http://www.factorioforums.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=2762 on the forum].

== Advanced ==
Put a [[Robotic network]] with [[Construction robot]]s and some [[Repair pack]]s at a train station, so that any eventual damage is repaired.

== Expert ==
* [[Diesel Locomotive]]: A train needs a locomotive at minimum.
** [[Vehicle/Train/Driving]]: When you want to enter a train press enter to enter.
** [[Vehicle/Train/Reverse driving]]: For automatic transport place a locomotive at the end of the train.
** [[Vehicle/Train/Refueling]]: Trains need [[Fuel]] to run.
* [[Vehicle/Train/Wagon]]: A wagon is like a rolling chest, but the inserters can reach it from a farther distance.
* [[Vehicle/Train/Coupling and decoupling]]: [[Keyboard bindings|"G"]] couples. "V" decouples the last wagon or locomotive.
* [[Vehicle/Train/Defence]]: A stopped train can be destroyed by the natives.
* [http://www.factorioforums.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=18&t=8145|| Speed] Locomotive count affects max speed and acceleration.
* [[Railway network/Do not cross the tracks]]: A train is very fast...
* [[Railway network/Train make-up]]: No matter many wagons you have, it's a good idea to make all trains for the same route the same length.
