Here is another episode of my Minecraft Minecart Station Tutorials, this one covering 3-way and 4-way stations.

I have three examples of 3-way stations, a really simple one, a classic design, and a design where there rails are all on the same level.

The simple design has a lever to choose the direction to go, a button to have you leave the station. The user must look at the switch track to determine if the lever needs to be move to go the direction the want to go, so it isn't that user friendly.

The classic design has 2 buttons as you enter the station, basically to go left or right (or straight as the case may be), with the left button on the left, and the right button on the right. I've tried to update the redstone with some of the newer mechanics, like signals only going up upside does slabs, and I think I've made it a bit smaller.

The final 3-way design has all the rail on the same level, with the cart being directed to the same control panel from whichever direction you come in. Then there are three buttons that let you pick your destination and send you on your way. Most of the redstone is underground or behind the wall of the control panel.


For 4-way stations, I show off 2 versions of one design. One has the redstone running overhead, while the other has it underground. This station has two levers that let you pick from among the four destinations, with a button to send your cart on it's way. I've used versions of this station since booster carts were used to get carts moving.

I hope that you find this video informative!
