  by orwell96 and contributors(see below)
 -Until now are supported:
 -- tracks and switches, based on angles of 30(!) degrees
 -- wagons that drive on these rails and collide with nodes in the environment(they need 3x3x3 space)
 --> a steam engine
 --> a regular green wagon
 --> a subway train (NEW!)
 -- coupling /discoupling of wagons/trains
 -- trains can travel through unloaded map chunks
 -- head-up display for train speed and nice controls when sitting in locomotive
 -- signals and bumpers
 -- switches and signals controllable by mesecons
 -Planned features:
 -- locomotives need coal to drive (and water...)
 -- more types of trains and rails(electric, diesel, maglevs...)
 -- better textures
 -- physics for train collisions (conservation of momentum)
 -- Automatic train control (ATC) via mesecons (only available on electric/subway trains, maybe allow for more features with digilines)
 -- an API, because API's are cool.
 -(I will probably split trains api and actual trains into two mods, to allow for extensions to be enabled individually)
 -
 -Manual:
 -- Use the 'Default train track' item to place tracks. In most cases it will adjust rails in the direction you need them.
 -- use the trackworker tool (doctor who sonic screwdriver) to rotate tracks(right-click) and to change normal rails into switches(left-click)
 -- to overcome heights you need the ramped rails, place them and you will understand.
 -- right-click switches to change direction, or power them with mesecons
 -- place locomotives or wagons by picking the item and placing it on a track.
 -- right-click a wagon or locomotive to sit onto it.
 -- inside a locomotive, use W/S to accelerate/decelerate the train. This will fail if the train can't move in the desired direction. Shift stops the train, aux1 (default E) or right-click on wagon will let you off.
 -- drive two trains together and they will connect by right-clicking that green icon that appears.
 -- punch the red couple icon between wagons to discouple them
