Factorio #6 - Train Transport Tutorial
We're finally setting up a train transport system! I will do it in a tutorial style and go through all steps to get a resource (Iron Ore in this case) transported from a distant mine to a desired place (main base for example).
I'm starting to get a lot of resources in my chests, I should step up the production of Science Packs. But that auto-assembling require a lot of steps and more place than I have today. I'll need to think about that.
There are two ways to power a distant base like this: either you send power from your main power grid, or you produce it locally. I'm thinking of Solar Power, but it doesn't work at night. Perhaps a topic for next episode? :)
Key topics for this video:
- Locomotive (Diesel)
- Cargo Wagon
- Railway Tracks
- Stations / Stops
- Buffer system
- Train Schedule
