Instructions
- Have 3 blocks inbetween the suspension for the right width for tracks
- SET THE TRAIN WHEEL SUSPENSIONS TO 25% FRICTION FOR OPTIMUM USE ON RAILS.
- Set the strength quite low but high enough that it doesnt droop much when stationary.
- You may need to do a lot more tweaking depending on the build.
- Place it on the tracks and go!!!
Additional Info
- Very light trains may have grip issues (similar to IRL).
- Having your bogie on a rotor to rotate the suspension set helps a lot on curved tracks.

Greetings, I like trains but they are annoying to make in vanilla. I started this mod with the hope that I could make wheels stay on the track like they do IRL without requiring a rollercoaster style wheel spam setup.
These wheels are designed to work with the track blocks in the mod. They are near unusable on voxels. To make up for this they have more pulling strength and less power use than normal wheels.
I recommend a low strength to absorb small bumps you might get when on a track.
Features
- 4 variants of small grid 3x3 train wheel suspensions. - 4 straight tracks (15, 10, 5 and 1 block long versions)
Preset curved tracks are not viable, but a train track hinge that meshes nicely with the straight track for easier curve-making will most likely come in the future. For now you'll need to do it manually.
I CANNOT STRESS THIS ENOUGH, SET THE TRAIN WHEEL SUSPENSIONS TO ~25% FRICTION FOR OPTIMUM USE ON RAILS.
These aren't magic and your train might still derail at very high speeds. This is [BETA] for a reason. Currently no build states, ill get to it eventually.
