Immersive Railroading Machines and Multiblocks

Manufacturing trains requires a series of specialized machines. These are multiblocks formed by placing specific blocks and right-clicking the center with a Large Wrench.

The Production Line

1. Casting Basin: The heart of the factory. Melt Steel Ingots or Blocks into molten metal to cast Rails, Wheels, and Frames.
2. Rail Machine (Track Roller): Processes raw Rail Castings from the Casting Basin into finished Rail Segments.
3. Plate Rolling Machine: Flattens steel into various plate sizes used for boilers and car bodies.
4. Boiler Roller: Bends steel plates into cylindrical segments for steam locomotive boilers.
5. Steam Hammer: Forges heavy components like cylinders and pistons.

Powering Machines

Machines require Forge Energy (FE/RF). If Immersive Engineering is present, they can be powered via wire connectors. The power input is typically marked by a specific block (often a Gold Block in the ghost guide).
