How to use / refuel trains

[tomsson]

Hi everybody,

is the any wiki about using trains ? I build a short track and put a train on it. I can enter it - but that's all. The fuel icon is blinking all the time and i dont know how to create a station/stop or how to move the train. How do i refuel it ?

Thanks in advance
Tom

Right click on train and then click the little circle loop near the top-left. Put fuel in there.

You can also get a chest and arm to put fuel into a stationary train.

Automated trains are explained here:

Or you can take coal into cursor, and control click on the locomotive to put it inside.
The next update, there will be some changes to make it easier to control, we would also like to extend the page with pictures and preferably make video.
