Rail

The rail is used as a pathway for trains and their respective carriages. train stops, rail signals and rail chain signals can all be placed on rails. Gates have a different appearence when placed on rails, and two are required to fully cover a straight rail. 'Railway' must be researched first. (Credit: BurgerFanMan. I'm going to make pages for all rail-related things)
