Create: Trains On Trains — Trains Carrying Trains
This addon removes a long-standing limitation in Create’s railway system: bogies that are glued to a carriage but not aligned with the track can now move smoothly with the train. The result is a compact, server-friendly tool for engineers who want to stack, carry, or nest entire trains on a single platform. It works as a server-side only mod, so players joining your world do not need to install anything extra.
What the Addon Changes
In vanilla Create, bogies must connect to rails to function. Create: Trains On Trains — Trains Carrying Trains alters that rule. Any bogie attached to a train body—even if it hovers above the rails or sits on a second deck—will travel as part of the assembly. The only condition is that these extra bogies must not share the same alignment as the carriage’s primary wheels. This opens up multi-storey carriers, suspended frames, and “matryoshka” trains where one locomotive hauls several smaller ones.
Compatibility and Requirements
The mod is built for Minecraft Java Edition with the Forge mod loader. It supports stable releases like 1.19.2 and 1.20.1, and integrates cleanly with other railway expansions. In particular, it has been tested alongside Create: Steam ’n’ Rails, so you can combine custom tracks, switches, and visual wagon parts without conflicts. Always check your server’s mod list before adding it to a live world, as the dependency chain (Create itself plus any addons) must match the exact game version.
How to Install Create: Trains On Trains — Trains Carrying Trains
Installation follows the standard Forge workflow. If you prefer a one-click solution, launchers like foxygame.net let you browse and add the mod directly from their interface. For manual setup:
- Download the correct Create: Trains On Trains — Trains Carrying Trains jar file for your Minecraft version.
- Place it in the
modsfolder of your Forge server or client (if you want to test locally). - Ensure the main Create mod and its dependencies are already present.
- Restart the server. The addon activates automatically—no configuration needed.
Because the mod is server-side only, clients can join without installing it. This simplifies onboarding for large communities and reduces version mismatch headaches.
Server-Side Advantages
Administrators benefit from a lightweight, drop-in addition. There are no client-side assets to distribute, and the mod’s logic runs entirely on the server. This keeps player installations minimal and lets you update the addon without forcing everyone to re-download packs. Before deploying a complex rail network, run a short test route with curves, junctions, and carriage docking to confirm everything behaves as expected under your specific mod combination.
Practical Engineering Ideas
Once installed, the addon invites a new class of builds. Consider a mobile workshop: a main train carries a secondary train loaded with tool stations and building blocks, ready to deploy at a construction site. Or design a vehicle transporter that moves biome-specific mini-trains—forest, desert, underground—each with its own bogie size and cargo. On economy servers, these carriers become a dramatic way to shuttle equipment between player bases, replacing rows of manual carts with a single, impressive hauler.
Why This Mod Fits Your Stable Build
Create: Trains On Trains — Trains Carrying Trains does not overhaul the game. It surgically removes a constraint that blocked ambitious rail designs. Paired with a stable Forge environment and compatible addons, it gives you the freedom to build logistics that previously fell apart due to bogie rules. If you already run a Create-focused server or singleplayer world, this download is a logical next step—less compromise in design, more control over what your trains carry and how they move.
