Man, I played Minecraft for like six and a half hours on my day off and made like, a house, a little farm, and a path to the village. I don't understand how you did a train, and a track, and all this stuff in one episode, I'm so impressed. I love the train, it reminds me of the time travelling train in Back to the Future III! Fun fact, did you know that the system that makes sure trains don't bump into each other is called "The Block System?" I don't know all the details but I do remember that the main control thing that does all the timing is called "The Absolute Block System." Just thought you should know hehe. Have a great weekend!
You might want to replace that dirt under the tracks with gravel, because there's actually several very good reasons most real train track has gravel ballast underneath it. The first is drainage, that gravel drains water much better than dirt, which prevents the tracks from sinking into the mud under the weight of a train. The second is that it literally holds the track in place. Yes, the ties keep the rails at the correct gauge, but if your ballast is something like smooth river stones, or heaven forbid straight dirt, that's easily the worst, really anything other than rough gravel with lots of sharp edges all packed tightly together so nothing can move, the force of the train moving over the tracks will literally shove said tracks into weird new positions that're much more difficult, and much less safe, for trains to traverse. Really the only thing better than tightly packed rough gravel is to use solid concrete, which is far more expensive to build and, depending on how it was laid, extremely difficult to replace worn out rail, though they need very little maintenance in comparison to more traditional methods. I know it's just a video game, and it doesn't really matter, but as someone who's loved trains their whole life, and will soon be taking a locomotive engineer and conductor training course to hopefully get a job running trains, it really pains me
Where your railway line goes up and then over the little hill, you could reduce that by flattening it out slightly and creating a cutting. They usually were found leading up to tunnels or where the railway couldn't go up a very steep hill
train fan comment : Crongrulations ! You made Choo Choo Charles train ! (if do a train critique at least i do it lightly and jokingly) Good basics btw.
I wish they would make this mod for Bedrock on PS4/PS5 players more and more stuff is starting to move over to console but this mode really is something else love the train and design in your builds
That menu you opened with the Locometal, you can also do it with the train casing to choose different styles of bogies. I love messing around trying to make some 'somewhat realistic' but generic locos in creative.
is this dude ever gonna use windmills to create stress? if i remember correctly you can take two stacks of sails and get roughly around 800 stress per mill
wow this train is SO COOL!!! ❤
Ps you’re worse at the mechanical crafters than I was 😭😂
Maybe, The Copper Comet for the train~ Or the Copper Kettle since it looks like a little steamer~ I like it so much. It's too cute!
Copper Kettle is so cute!!!
I love trains a lot, so this is a tip: make the cabin shorter and the boiler longer!

Choo choo! Here comes the pogdown train!
Nice work as always!!!!!, and name the train "Blockomotiv" because it connects perfectly in my opinion and in your world as well😁😁😁
“Alright let’s build a britch”
Blockdown 2024
I recommend rooted dirt instead of dirt fir the loop in the track
The train is great! You could make a storage yard for the trains
New Blockdown vid is literally the ✨BEST✨ thing to wake up to!!!!

Should've bramg the platform around the corner a bit. Would've looked cool.
beautiful engine!
Name her Charlotte! You can call her Charlie for short 😆
you could make a lake in the circular train traks with a big Weeping willow in the middle, maybe a couple chickes as ducks and fence it
you don't need to hold left click to extend the track, you just need to press left click once

You can make 2 industrial iron ingots out of 1 iron ingot in a stone cutter to double the outcome
You are are like the God of being underrated (in a. Good way)

All hail the dirt slab
Take a shot every time Blocky needs to sort out his inventory ;D
Me before watching this Video
ME:I hope This Video hadn't a curse block.
Me after watching the video
ME: WTF A DIRT SLAB😂😂😂
Rusty or ruster would make a good train name.
We want more trains!!!!!
Really enjoying the new series....simple train name...The BD express!
I think a train track on top of dirt is not advisable 😅, imagine if it rain😂
HI BLOCKY 😀
The cheese train
Wow this is really cool im probably going to install create now
Train Named: The Mighty Steamer or The Copper Forager.
just wondering why you did not make a create machine to dig your tunnel for the train? Setting up drills on a contraption would have saved your tools
That menu you opened with the Locometal, you can also do it with the train casing to choose different styles of bogies. I love messing around trying to make some 'somewhat realistic' but generic locos in creative.
Amazing tip thank you!
Name the train Chuck
Love your vids!!

Damn people are quick 😅
Nice Vid as always but where stream?! :)
OOOHHHH james the tank engine from thomas and friends as name as it is red like james!
Okay 👌
its just a shame connecting rods arent possible for these trains. Theyre the best part of ALL steam lovomotives
Blocky rails
Hii ❤😊
Need episodes more frequently ❤❤
I like your steam engine Blockdown but you should ad a tender to the engine and for the name of the engine why not the flying blocksmen
Train name is block express.
How did you build the funnel on top with blocks?
You don't have to hold down to make train tracks
The tunnel is too short for the train, the train clips into the tunnel a little bit
I miss the Better Minecraft series.
what's your world gen mod ?
Blocklo
How can I install this modpack on a server? Wanna play it with some friends of me
Cho cho
Why did you not use creative mode?
First comment! Also under a minute 😭 love this!
