History

Prior Concepts

Since 2018 getplayerhead.sh?SiOtter&16.png SiOtter has spitballed the idea of a subway network or local rail within the Kanal Town area. The idea was a train running from Mount Dernal into New Kanal Town; the plans were scrapped upon his ban. Another subway almost happened in 2020 when the nexus was installed but unfortunately SiOtter went on a break before he had a chance to start. In September 2023 SiOtter would begin work with getplayerhead.sh?CarCrasher13&16.png CarCrasher13 on the Spawn Continental Railway connection to Chilliwack, a third concept was submitted for a north-south line but was put down due to a lack of materials.

Phase 1

Phase 1 began in November 2023 to better connect the Kanal Town nexus building to the nearby auction house. A tunnel was dug and the Kanal Town Subway stretched from the Sandbar Station to the nexus, and then to the dark-oak dock near the auction house. The line would see regular use for people traveling to the many server auctions held in the building. In February 2024 getplayerhead.sh?red_sporb&16.png red_sporb would approach SiOtter about modernizing the subway a bit more by turning its walls into stone brick. This partnership grew and both of them began to work on extending the subway; now renamed the Dernal Line across multiple other stations in order to better connect various tourist attractions in the town.

Phase 2

Phase 2 began in February 2024 with the creation of the Crasher Line, the first part to open was from the Kanal Town Nexus to the cities stadium. This was followed by stations at the Public Library and Industrial District. The crasher line is planned to run north-south and eventually go into the southern Dernal Highlands with its final station. The line was made by getplayerhead.sh?SiOtter&16.png SiOtter and getplayerhead.sh?red_sporb&16.png red_sporb.

Phase 2A

Phase 2A was the expansion of the Dernal Line into Maple Ridge. The line extension was planned for Phase 1 but ultimately was left unfinished due to a few reasons. The extension was made by getplayerhead.sh?SiOtter&16.png SiOtter, getplayerhead.sh?red_sporb&16.png red_sporb, and getplayerhead.sh?BomBardyGamer&16.png BomBardyGamer. The crasher line was completed in March of 2024 with the completion of the Crasher Line with stations C6 and C7.

Phase 3

Set to begin April-May 2024.
