The Blizzard National Rail project is a world-wide railway network project in Blizzard. It was established and is maintained by User:Roy Curtis. It is still in-progress and is currently only serving three locations and two lines. It is inspired by pcnate's AWTeen Interway network and by the National Rail and London Underground networks from the United Kingdom. The rationale of the network, like the AWTeen Interway, is to link up builds and communities using scenic routes and also fill out empty locations, to inspire new builds across Blizzard.

Network

The network is made up of lines, each with a variable number of stations. Lines should have a terminus station on either end, at least one depot serving it and should not branch at more than two parallel lines. Lines may be underground, overground, elevated or all three. Railway lines should never cross roads but should be bridged over them. Other roads and built up areas take priority over the railway; the railway should route around or under such builds. The current and planned lines are:

Major lines

  • Cypress Line - North, north-west
  • Blackpool Line - North-west, west
  • Northern Line - North median (X: 0)
  • Metro Line - Within 100~ cell radius of ground zero only

Minor lines

  • Googl Line - Serving all Googl bases and surrounding areas from Blackpool Junction

Cypress Line

The first line of the network, which currently spans from ground zero to the object yard (approx. 500dm). This line mainly serves regions to the north and north-west. The name is inspired by New Cypress Hollow. From south-to-north order:

Blackpool Line

The second line of the network, it is currently the longest spanning from Blackpool Junction to Etox Town (approx. 7500dm). This line mainly serves regions to the north-west and west. From east-to-west order:
