Part of this project includes writing tools to modify whole blueprint books at once outside of the game.
Is it linux only? Looks like it. Uses git
BTW: About 90% of the people clicking the links in my signature use windows.

Hello!
I've spotted an issue with the 'Output Mainline' blueprint, there's an incorrectly placed Rail Chain Signal that prevents rail from being put down.

Found the same issue with the T-Junction. your best bet is to fix it yourself and save a new blueprint.

There also should be chain signals before the forks. Why you ask? Because a red/blue chain signal allows the train to repath and find a better path. It might decide it doesn't want to take the turn it's waiting for after all.

PLEASE DO NOT USE THIS BLUEPRINT BOOK

This thread currently shows up as the very first entry on a google search for "factorio rail blueprint." I doubt anyone coming here from a quick google search would make it to the second page, but in case you found this: Multiple blueprints in this book are completely screwed up. Rail signals do not get properly built by construction robots as the signals intersect with curved pieces of rail. So as a user, your tracks look great and trains start to run - but soon everything grinds to a halt and your trains cry out in pain : "No path!" I wasted so much time trying to figure out what I was doing wrong. My only mistake was not deleting the blueprint book sooner, as having to screw around with prefabs at all just for them to function defeats the point of the prefabs.

It would be nice of the original poster either fixed the blueprints or included a warning about their current state. Fat chance the google search result ever goes away. Maybe these worked in an old verison of factorio? They certainly wont work after space age comes out...
