The Death Feeder Concept

by Death

The Death Feeder Concept.

• The mainline consists of two lines going in the same direction in a loop around the entire map
• The only stations connected to the mainlines are Cargo Stations and Industry Drop off/Pickup stations
• Industries are connected to the mainline by feeder networks that dropoff cargo at a Cargo Station
• Small Trains (5 tiles is a good size) drop off cargo to the Cargo Stations
• Big Trains (20 tiles long is a good size) take the cargo from Cargo Stations and drop them off at the drop station for whichever type of cargo it is

Key points:

• Feeder networks (production industries) disattached from mainline
• Mainline only goes one direction
• Large trains take cargo from feeder networks to receiver industries (factory, power station, etc.)
