Progressive infrastructure

Hi everyone!

So today, I decided to take a break from my observatory deck and focus on something else for a change. What I ended up expanding upon, is my long-delayed secondary railway network, which I have constructed in the airspace above my base. This project has been halted for quite a long while, so it feels good getting back into it, connecting the different parts of my base. The biggest hassle I face on a day to day basis in my world, is just getting from point A to point B within my primary base. I have my walkways, which works perfectly fine for the shorter walks, but if I am to get from one end of my base to the other, such as if I am to go from my EXP farm over to my new observatory, that's a good five minutes of just walking and running back and forth. And I am not taking into consideration if I have any runs I need to make for my resources, or if I get stuck repairing something along the way, because I am quite the perfectionist when it comes to certain details, so more often than not I get stuck on some different project along the way and never get to my destination. What I need is a quick and efficient way of getting from point to point, without getting distracted, and without having to walk, which is both slow, and very inefficient. Thus I commenced constructing an intricate system of railways that connects the different parts of my base together. The main line was completed over a year ago, but the project stalled after that, because I did not bother to continue it any further. All I cared about at the time was to connect my primary base, to my roller coaster and my old EXP farm. My world have changed quite a bit since than, so it's about time I get around to expanding the network. I have not constructed any new connective points yet which will allow me to access the railway from the ground level, but I have gotten a new section of the network ready. All I really need to do now, is to construct an elevator tower, and cover the walls of the "tube" in white stained glass.

It turns out pretty good if I may say so myself. And when completed it will hopefully make my everyday life in my base a lot easier and better. There are still a lot to be done though, so this is just a drop in the water when it comes to my vision.

Looking down at my progress from my secondary observatory. The newly constructed portion of my transportation network can be seen in the middle of the screenshot, next to my glass cube, and above my sheep farm.

I will keep updating as I make more progress on my network.
