A Rail is used for building a railway track for trains. Unlike transport belts, rail tracks can also be curved and placed diagonally. Train stops, rail signals and rail chain signals can be placed on rails to better guide automated trains. Gates can also be placed on rails, making them rail gates. There are also elevated rails, which are rails with added height, so that trains can freely pass over obstacles.
The minimum rail turning radius is 12, meaning the smallest possible 180° turn is 24 tiles wide.
The rail planner can be used to automatically place rails. See the page for more info.
