I think someone has done this before me? But I can't seem to find it. Anyway, I built a personal transport system using gates to call the train to your stop. Then you can enter the train and take it to your desired location where it will stay until called to another stop.
It's great for when you're building on one end of the base and get distracted and stray to the other farflung end of the base only to realize you left your extra supplies in the train. Just walk to the nearest stop, stand on the gate and ... a few seconds later, your train arrives ready to take you back to wherever you were when you got distracted by ... or was it that copper mine again? Anyway, I like it.
