About Quality Trains

From Factorio Mod Portal

Quality affects locomotive speed and wagon capacity, scaling like most items in the game (1.3x uncommon, 1.6x rare, 1.9x epic, 2.5x legendary).

Quality now actually matters for trains! Wagon capacity scales with quality, just like most other items in the game.


## The Problem

In vanilla Factorio 2.0, quality on trains only increases health — a wasted opportunity. This mod fixes that.

## Cargo Wagons

Higher quality = more inventory slots.

| Quality | Slots | Bonus | |---|---|---| | Normal | 40 | — | | Uncommon | 52 | +30% | | Rare | 64 | +60% | | Epic | 76 | +90% | | Legendary | 100 | +150% |

## Fluid Wagons

Higher quality = more fluid capacity.

| Quality | Capacity | Bonus | |---|---|---| | Normal | 50,000 | — | | Uncommon | 65,000 | +30% | | Rare | 80,000 | +60% | | Epic | 95,000 | +90% | | Legendary | 125,000 | +150% |

## Scaling

All bonuses follow the standard quality formula: +30% per quality tier (with Legendary at level 5 = +150% total). Same scaling as crafting machines, inserters, labs, and most other quality-affected items.

## Technical Details

  • Uses Factorio's built-in quality_affects_inventory_size and quality_affects_capacity flags
  • No runtime scripting — pure data stage, zero performance impact
  • Works with modded wagons — all cargo and fluid wagons are affected

## Localization

Fully localized: English, German, French, Ukrainian, Russian, Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Polish, Spanish, Portuguese, Czech.


Requires: Factorio 2.0 + Quality mod (included with Space Age DLC)
