Whenever I'm looking for a build I always do it in the hopes that the person making the video will explain how their creation works but that seldom happens. This was seriously refreshing to watch. Awesome vid.
Awesome! I've felt that same frustration in the past, and mostly learned how to do redstone by staring at the thing a tutorial told me to build until I thought I'd maybe figured it out. So, for my videos I really like giving a description of how it all works if anyone is interested. It can always be skipped by those who aren't, after all. :)
Extremely excellent tutorial!! You thoroughly explained what you were doing, why you were doing it, and how it all works together. You spoke slowly and clearly enough for me to understand and follow along, which is sometimes a problem when watching tutorials. I love Redstone builds, but I want to understand how everything works together instead of always having to go to RUclips when I want to build something. I liked and subbed, as this is probably the best tutorial I've watched. FYI, in case others have not seen in the comments, for those playing the Bedrock edition, add a piece of Redstone dust to each dropper to get it to work.
I really hope you still look at these comments. This is hands down the best Minecraft tutorial I've ever watched! So clear. So informative. I watch SOOO much RUclips and this is the first comment I've ever left.
Aw thanks, glad it’s helpful for you! I’m still here. It just takes a surprisingly large amount of time to make videos like this and I can’t make that commitment nowadays.
Your tutorials are excellent! The quality and quantity of information you give us in your videos make me look forward to your next post. I love the look and feel of this design. Thank you and keep up the good work.
Thank you so much for taking the time to actually explain how the redstone is working. I personally get so confused by these contraptions, despite how much I want to build them. You actually managed to make this (usually) frustrating task fun AND educational.
This video was a revelation to me at the time how truly amazing and expandable Minecraft is! Thank you once again for making this excellent video, I loved your style of very clear and concise explanations and it was very fun to use in my world. I hope you're alright and I miss your content! =)
@@weirdwilliam8500 Hey glad to hear you're doing fine! Of course I understand, no pressure! Wishing you the best and hopefully you'll find some time in the future if you feel like it =) The 1.17 part 2 update is looking quite exciting so there'll probably a lot of demand for minecraft videos =) Anyway thank you once again for making this very helpful tutorial!
Really love this creation in the way you've done it and explained it. I feel like I could actually be able to build it myself. I already have a bunch of separate lines in my game, but was growing tired of having to move from one to the other and get carts from chests and so on. This will simplify everything.
*Console players* Use droppers and put redstone on top. Works great, thank you for explaining the mechanics of each working part it helped a lot more when I had to trouble shoot.
If this build is not turning off rail line when selecting other lines double check your hoppers. I had this problem 8hrs after messing with this I figured it out. CROUCH WHEN PLACING YOUR HOPPER!
Shootout to K1. Guy was a beast and very detailed. Glad you got advice for him. Hope this works in bedrock realms. I just started a realm and would love to make this
I'm not sure if you will see this someday.. But I appreciate the video you made. I just started with a realm with friends and i was dealing with tutorials who weren't helpful enough. But you did an amazing job, taking the time to explain everything in a simple and entertaining way. Thank you so much!
Thanks! I've definitely been considering making more. It's actually a lot of work and all my little kids are stuck at home with me all day. Still, I have some ideas I've been mulling over. :)
Great, I'm glad! Yes, you could mirror the return line setup so it dumps the cart onto the launch line, and have it hit a cactus right by the launch area if you want. I've seen that done in other videos, but I like the separate return line because it gives you more control of where the passenger is ejected, and it reduces the risk of collisions. I also like the symmetry.
Just come from a video from cubey, This is explained sooo much better! love the explanations so you can actually learn rather than copy aimlessly. Keep up the awesome work!
The only thing that would have made this better would be a materials list, though I get that numbers would vary depending on how many rails you built (I had to keep running back home to get more supplies RIP). Other than that though, this was brilliant! I love that you took the time to explain what each piece was doing, the game mechanics behind the switching rails, the little detail with the different noteblock patterns- and especially the fact that you mentioned ways to make the build easier in survival even while you were in creative. I built a 7-rail station in our server, and I'll probably use this tutorial and build again in any other larger worlds I play :D
so glad i read the description for once as i was raging bad as it wasnt working and watched 3 times and i did it all correct first time lol (XBOX ONE) i removed the half block from above the droppers and placed the redstone dust on the whole blocks above the droppers works great 100% impressed with how well it works for me XD my friends will be like WOAH!! i only started this game yesterday too lol
Hey this was really helpful man linked up all my buddies on our server with this, can confirm it works in multiplayer on the latest edition of Java. Have it set up on a spigot server. THANKS MAN
I just want to specify that you can have 8 stations without any issue (instead of 7). You can even have much more stations than 8 but you need not select any stations that is more than 7 stations farther than the one currently selected or it won't reset. For example, I have built a 10 stations with this design but if track 1 is selected and I then select track 9, or 10, track one won't reset, instead, select track 6 and then select track 9 or 10 and it'll work. This is because redstone signal wont travel more than 15 blocks. Also, use stone buttons to speed-up the selection process instead of wooden buttons. Nice design, love it!
Yes, fair enough. If you want to make a much larger train station with each button still resetting all the lines, then I suggest looking up K1 Inc's design for up to 60-something lines. It just needs a fairly minor modification which makes the build a bit larger and more complex. I've often built it for nether hubs on the servers I play on. I linked to K1's video in an old comment on this video somewhere, and specified the time stamp for the exact modification.
@@weirdwilliam8500 Honestly, I much prefer the one you provided, much easier, much compact and easy to work with and expandable. Eight stations is usually more than anyone need ;o) I have built based on your desing and made it auto reset so every time I come to my station it is reset. Great work, great tutorial, love it!
I solved my problem shortly after sending the comment, so I deleted it though it didnt show you had already responded (I had placed dispensers instead of droppers, sigh). Anyway the tutorial was spot on, and thanks for including the changes for bedrock. Awesome work!
This is an amazing build and just what I was looking for. The only issue I am experiencing is the return cart not going into the hopper. Now, mine is configured in my mines, but that shouldn't impact it. This did work a couple of times, but then I had a fire. After the fire, it stopped working. I've checked the configuration to make sure it's still configured correctly. Yet the minecarts do not go into the hopper after hitting the cactus. Thank you I had just finished up with laying out two-track 4-way intersections in my mines when I came across this. Now I am changing the 4-way intersections from two tracks to single tracks. Well worth the effort in my book though.
My cactus had grown to a height of two. When it did that, it was destroying the minecarts. I cut it down to one, and it now appears to be working again.
Super easy to build, explained very well. and in my Realm world built facing east. it works perfectly! i LOVE this design. i plan on memorizing this and building a few of them!! Thank you so much.
Great! I'm glad my video is helpful. I've fallen away from Minecraft some this summer, mostly due to the weather. I live in a semi-arctic place so summer is special. Still, I'm hoping to do some more videos soon-ish.
WeirdWilliam I have a question if you’re able to help :) I’m in bedrock edition and my tracks switchback to default before the carts have even made it out of the departure area... Been fiddling with it for days and can’t figure it out!
Hello, I am on Windows version and I have my setup built exactly like you have yours, my issue is, when I test the design, the redstone dust lights up to the first repeater, then nothing happens after that, none of the redstone dust lights up above the hopper/dropper and beyond that point. If anyone has a solution to this it would be much appreciated!
Just finished building this and it’s incredible, simple tutorial and works incredibly well. Would love to see a version for changing lines too, I’ve got a line that goes so far and then ends and requires you to join another rail line mid way through the line. Would love a solution for that!
PEOPLE ON JAVA: Some are having issues with the redstone lamps staying on. Place your hoppers on top of the dropper, and make sure the dropper is facing upward! Hope that helps.
This is working well, functionally, but the Redstone Lamps are not turning on for me following the same instructions and layout. Odd. Was something changed for 1.16.1?
Great tutorial and design. On Switch Edition, can't make it work. Can't put a rail on dispenser or hopper. just brings up inventory. What am I doing wrong?
There are sometimes very slight redstone differences across the various game platforms. In this case, maybe see if a dispenser can be placed alongside the rail, facing from the side onto the top of the rail? This might work to dispense the cart onto the rail, and then you could have the same delay of 4 repeaters with 4 ticks each, and have the cart dispense with the right delay after you push the launch button? That's all I can think of. xD
Alternately, you might just need to figure out the Switch version of "shift-click," which on a PC lets you click onto containers instead of opening them.
I found out from a couple people that B(crouch)+ZL clicks on containers. Getting closer. It's not adding on the hopper, but I don't know much about hoppers/dispensers, yet. Thanks again ^_^
@@mayorami657 Great, I hope you figure it out. If there's a hopper right in front of the cactus then it should be picking up the cart when it breaks. Just make sure no redstone signals are locking the hopper or it won't be able to pick up anything, though. Good luck!
Can I make it accurate to real life and add some unpowered rails to the end section so I have more time to hop off & can I make some commuter stations for commutor lines? for other lines and Skip rails for the commuter stations?
I'm just having a problem with 1.14.4 where the dropper isn't placing the minecart on the rail and just leaves it as an item on top of it. It's a bit annoying and I'm not quite sure how to fix it.
I've had this happen, and it's usually for one of two reasons. First, you may be powering one of the hoppers in the chain, which will disable it. Make sure any torches/levers nearby for power rails are not also feeding a redstone signal into a hopper. You can use the F3 debug feature to examine whether a hopper is enabled or disabled. Alternatively, you may have placed the hoppers so that they are not feeding into each other all the way back to the dispenser. Good luck!
The rail is facing the wrong way when I power the junction and I can't seem to fix it, is it a directional problem? Edit: I had to make a NOT gate to negate the first NOT gate
I'm not sure based on your description. If you've put the launch area on the wrong end, the cart will go out on the line closest to the launch bay pretty much no matter what. If you've activated and then turned off each line, and look at the rail junctions, they should each be curving the same way by default and then individually swap directions when activated.
Im not understanding how this is a T flip flop because on its own, a T flip fop should be changing the output state when you toggle the input. But in this case, if the current station is selected, and you select it again, it does not deselect the current selected station as how a regular t flip flop would. Thanks, im just trying to learn :0
Does the terminal work in creative mode in mcpe i have tried a lot but it seems like you can't break minecart with cactus and send it into the dispenser everything else is working fine
My block isn’t transferring to my hopper from my dropper and the lamp won’t light but all my red stone and blocks are placed correctly. Is there a reason for this in a new update. I’m on pe
Make sure your arc of repeaters isn't coming around to power the redstone the button is turning them on with. You may have put the cart dispenser too close to the button. You can experiment with it a bit and configure it differently, but you just need a delay of 4 repeaters set to 4 ticks.
I'm having abit of a problem, everything works great untill the very last line of rail to return the minecart after you get ejected, the cart just starts to shake and won't make it back to the cactus?? Anyone have any solutions please
Callum monk How strange. I’ve seen that happen on activator rails. Did you maybe use those instead of power rails by accident, for the cart return portion?
Love this, best station design yet. Do you have any ideas for an occupied minecart vs empty or minechest/hopper detectors? That way freight and passengers can exist on the same line? I am currently using tripwire to divert the manned carts into my passenger stations, but would love to see something smarter that can detect empty/loaded passenger/freight.
I have a few ideas off the top of my head. For returning carts related to passengers/empty carts, you can use a tripwire, but you could alternatively have a detector rail on the return line and a set of power rails after it that will accelerate an occupied cart at a different speed than an empty cart. Then set up a junction activated by the detector rail that will temporarily divert, at a point right past those power rails, and couple it with a timing system that will trigger the diverting junction *after* an occupied cart speeds by the junction but right *before* a slower unoccupied cart arrives. You can divert and filter out the slower empty carts to a separate rail that way. Does that make sense? I believe you can also use this cart speed + timed junction system to separate empty carts from carts with hoppers or chests, since I think those move along at speeds comparable to carts holding passengers. Combine that with the tripwire to separate passengers from the other types of carts, and you should be able to separate all of these categories from each other. That would be fun to set up. I've never had a need for it because (unless they've changed it in recent updates), unoccupied carts just go into unloaded chunks on longer rails and don't progress. This could still be a really cool way to move items out of a nearby strip mine, or something like that, with a shared passenger line to get down to the mining area.
Quick Question (I know im late lol) I think i heard you say you could do this with 2 to 7 lines. Why is there an upper limit. Surely there could be as many lines as you want?
Harry Mann It’s actually up to 8 lines. It’s limited by redstone signals only going 15 dust long before tapering out, which applies to the line of redstone dust under the control panel. Any longer and the buttons on on side of the control panel can’t reset the lines on the opposite side. K1 Inc details a modified setup that allows up to 62 lines, heh. I’ve only done it up to 14 or so, for nether hubs.
@@melfur9430 I think someone said they put redstone on top of the dropper or something, for console? But if it works differently then I'm just not sure. :/
Unfortunately empty carts can’t move through unloaded chunks. If there’s a destination like an end portal where people won’t return back by rail, I sometimes put a chest to collect the carts, and an ender chest next to it so people can then periodically transfer carts back. There’s no perfect solution.
Ok so everything works amazing but i don't get kicked out the minecart on the platform, I go straight through the gate and banner. I even tried it with a solid block instead of gate and went through thst too! Any ideas? I'm in survival and I built it in the Nether
Sorry to hear that. If you use the activator rail, instead of a powered rail, then it will pop you out of the minecart. The activator rail is the specific rail type that does this and is rarely used, but in this case it's essential for the ejection feature. So make sure it's an activator rail and that it's activated (on) by a redstone torch underneath the block it's on, or a lever, etc, and you shouldn't have any problems. I hope this helps!
Great tutorial. But I play on ps4 and everything works well until the minecart hits the cactus and disappears breaking the minecart completely.. any fix for this?
Really? That's a very different mechanic. If that's the case, the only thing I could recommend would be having a returning cart run on rail above the station until it ran off the rail into a hole where it fell down onto the cart launch site. That still doesn't leave you with a reserve of carts, although you could also set up a pillar of stacked minecarts that could add or dispense one cart at a time to the top or from the bottom of the stack. A bit ungainly, still. I'm still surprised a cactus immediately destroys carts that impact the side of it in PS4. That would also take away their use to end ice lines by breaking and collecting the boats. :/
I did everything correctly but the rail goes crazy and always goes to the previous station selected...I need help I have observed that the cart mostly goes to station 1 or 2 I copied the video exactly as it is but still something is going wrong
So i realised what I was doing wrong my station was facing north and I found out that his original station design was the one is should be working on and I changed the departure and arrival spots and changed the track to one similar to his original work and bravo it worked like a charm yet the dispenser isn't working that well working on it
@@mohammadadilhussain2856 Glad you figured it out. I hadn't checked comments but that would be what I suggested. The dispenser needs 4 repeaters on 4 ticks, for the right amount of delay, to avoid launching the next cart too. If that's the problem.
hi im new in minecraft, been playing for over a week, im confused when the video suddenly shows a reset button near the note and also, it seems when i click the control panel it says "dispenser failed"? I'm playing on 1.15.2. Helllp.
Also i tried turning on a station, it wont automatically turn off whenever i turn on another station huhu helppp. And it seems the dirt always remain in the hopper. Can u tell me what did i miss? Or what should i do?
@@animekun2041 Welcome to the game! I hope you have fun. Are you in Java or another version? You might want to try putting a piece of redstone on top of each dropper and that could fix it. If you're in Java then I'm not sure what the problem is without more description or an image. If you're getting a "dispenser failed" message then that's odd, because the control panel and rail line stuff shouldn't have any dispensers.
Wonderful, you're welcome! I'm hoping to get into making videos again soon, but I've been dabbling in other things lately. It's always great to hear that I've helped someone enjoy the game a little bit more, though. :)
Check that a redstone torch or lever nearby isn't locking one of the hoppers that you intend to return the broken minecart. I've made that mistake before.
in need of help i play on the xbox one but bedrock, but i can’t seem to get the station to lock so i can go to the desired station. but instead it turns off after the button is pressed and goes back to the original position. plz help
Try putting a piece of redstone dust on the top of each dropper. I believe that's how someone else got it to work for Bedrock. The t-flip flop relies on signal budding, which may not work the same in Bedrock and require that fix. Hope that works!
Hi, re-watched a couple of times incase I was forgetting something , when I get to the part where you click the buttons and do the reset , the lights stay on as well as the top level of redstone . I'm on Java (1.14.4) Also would like to thank you for making the Tutorial , like others have said , it's nice to have someone explain what the redstone actually does.
It sounds like the dirt is staying in the hopper instead of returning to the dropper, when you're pushing buttons. Is the hopper's nozzle facing into the dropper for each line? Some other people have had that issue. Remember the hopper's output is directional depending on the block you're clicking against when you place the hopper. And thanks! I'm hoping to get back into making tutorials eventually, but I've been distracted by other things of late.
@@wildginger01 Ok, but when the lines are all on like you described, is the dirt block in the hopper or the dropper? From what I understand, for the lines to be on like that then the dirt should be stuck in the hoppers. If dirt is in the droppers and the top part is all on, then there's some other big issue.
WeirdWilliam Having the same issue as OP. Hopper is placed on top of dropper in my case. Everything seems fine until the test. Note block and light go off, but the redstone torch is on and the comparator is off. It won't reset to look like the others.
came to the comments to say the same thing, this is going to be perfect for out server. and thank you for being so kind the way you've have explained this as a total redstone novice its nice not to feel like and idiot when trying to learn. Thankfully for our server the building of this will not be done by me, but I really appreciate you!
I'm not sure if there are any redstone differences on mobile since I've never used it. I'd guess you need to put a piece of redstone dust on top of each dropper, though, which is the simple fix to get it to work in Bedrock edition. Try that?
I'm not sure, but putting a piece of redstone dust on top of each dropper may fix it, like it does in Bedrock. The java build uses BUD mechanics which don't always carry over into the other versions.
Amazing build! I just have one question; it doesnt dissmount me - any idea why? I have the banner and the fence gate, yet make the whole round trip to the cactus :(
Glad you're liking it! For your question, are you sure there is an activator rail at the dismount area, and not a power rail? Is the activator rail powered by a redstone signal? If no to either question, then you won't dismount.
Hi thanks for the awesome tutorial but somehow my hopper cant receive the dropper's dirt hence the system not working I'm playing the latest version as of this date (1.16.4)
Hey guys. Some help would be very much appreciated. No matter what we try, the tracks switch back to default position before the cart reaches them We are in bedrock edition on Xbox one of it helps
It sounds like you built the launch on the wrong side? If the cart is taking the first line out every time, then it's on the wrong side. Does that help or is it a different problem?
WeirdWilliam it goes right through to the return side immediately. Because the tracks flip back to their original position before the cart gets to them. So there’s not enough delay between choosing a station and leaving the platform before the tracks reset
@@SlenderManProjectUK Ah, I see. Did you see the note in my description saying that you need a piece of redstone dust on top of each dropper if you're in Bedrock? If that's the not the issue either, then you should check and make sure the repeaters are on 2 ticks. I think the control panel should work with wood as well as stone buttons, but you might try using different buttons instead, too. If the cart is going all the way through then that means the track is correct and the reset feature is probably correct, but the hopper/torch lock timing is off, or the dropper isn't shooting the dirt over at all. I don't think xbox redstone is different enough from Java that this shouldn't work. The typical issue is the Java BUD mechanics that work differently, but redstone dust on top of each dropper fixes that in bedrock.
WeirdWilliam following your tutorial I couldn’t actually get the buttons on the station selection to trigger everything. So I tried a modified version of the upper layer (leading to the Redstone lamp). That triggers fine now. But the delay issue is still present which ever way I build it. Even with the Redstone dust tip 🤷🏻♂️ I wondered if I built it wrong somewhere so tried again in creative from scratch and it still didn’t work fully
Right, this almost certainly means you build the cart launch and return line on the wrong sides, sorry. If you build the launcher on the wrong side it will always send the cart to the first line only. :/
On bedrock edition, do you keep the repeater on top of hopper and delete the full block over the dropper and put the red stone dust on the dropper, or half slab over dropper and put red stone dust on that???
You don't have to delete or move any blocks. The droppers (the ones that shoot dirt into the hoppers) each have an empty space over them, below the block the repeater is facing into. So, just put a piece of redstone dust on top of each dropper. That should fix it in bedrock.
Thank you for making this one. I’m using the latest Bedrock build on iPad and XBox. Your design works great with the added Redstone on Droppers. I am having an issue however where passengers get ejected out of the cart on the last 2 routes/rail lines as it is passing through the spaghetti rails. The first 2 railways work as they should. The last 2 the passenger gets kicked out but the rail car goes to the correct rail line (#3 or #4 ) and tunnel in my case. Everything looks to be the same. I’ve redone the powered and non powered rails but same result. Any ideas? Thank you!
It sounds like you may have placed a couple activator rails instead of power rails, among the rail spaghetti in the back. Carefully inspect them and see if that's the case? They look subtly different but very similar. If the cart is not destroyed but the passenger is still popping out, then that's pretty much all it could be.
I'm on 1.16 Java and it seems that the hopper transfers the item into the dropper but the dropper brings it back to the hopper before the first redstone torch can turn on. I feel like there has to be a bug on my end.
@@akibhussain3874 Look and see where your redstone torches or levers are, around there. You may be locking the hopper so it can't pick up the cart. Alternately, the hoppers may not be properly pointing into each other in the right direction.
@@weirdwilliam8500i am talking about the terminal station it is supposed that cart will it the cactus and drop into the hoppers and later get into the dispensar but my cart just vanishes and doesn't drops in the hopper need your help
@@akibhussain3874 If it's being destroyed by hitting the cactus from the side, then that would be very strange and unlike any prior versions of minecraft. You're sure the carts aren't stuck in one of the hoppers or floating on top after they break?
I spent a month running rails and setting up stations then ps4 got the update of cross console now my incoming return and out going work ask they are suppose to but the line switching does not do you have any update on your system?
I've never played minecraft on ps4, so I'm not sure. Have you tried the fix for bedrock where you just put redstone dust on top of each dropper? Sorry I can't be more help.
If I had 20+ points of interest, could I place each T flip flop next to each other or will the red stone overlap??? I play bedrock if it makes a difference.
This one works for up to 8 lines, actually, since a redstone signal can only activate up to 15 blocks of redstone dust in a row. That's the limiting factor for the reset system under the buttons. If you really want 20 lines, you can either look up a video by K1 Inc who did a 2-62 line system I believe, which is sort of similar to mine, or you could make like a main station with 5 lines, each of which go to a substation with 4 lines, for example, for 20 lines total. Hope that helps.
@@weirdwilliam8500 I definitely will take a look at what K1 has to offer. However, I devised a system similar to the one you described; with substations and main stations. My plan for my world is to map a 5x5 item frame, 25 maps, and connect all towns to my town. Along with various points of interest. The return system is amazing and will each have their own building for each town. THANKS!!!
I heard that depending on the direction you're building this can mess up the system. In which direction should I do it? Thanks for this amazing tutorial
I talk about this partway through the tutorial. Basically you build out the row of rail junctions, then press each line button to activate and reset each junction, then you can go and look which way their default orientation is and then build the rest of the station based on that. If you build the cart launch on the correct side, the station works perfectly. If you've built the launch on the wrong side, then the cart will always take the first line out no matter which line has been selected. In short, yes, the side the launch area needs to be on depends on which direction the station is facing, but the tutorial shows how to figure out the correct side.
It works in 1.15.2. From what I've seen, it should also work with the new redstone changes for 1.16 in the latest snapshot, although I'd have to double check.
BEDROCK EDITION: You only need to put a piece of redstone on the droppers for it to work. Great tutorial!
Thanks for the tip!

All the droppers?

This is the best tutorial video I’ve seen. Thank you for taking the time to explain how the red stone components work. Excellent job!
Thanks!
Absolutely stunning work! Can't wait to try it out. Your video quality is out of this world!
Can confirm this works on Java 1.20.4, built it in the Nether installed 10 lines total.
Great vid! Thank you!
Really love this creation in the way you've done it and explained it. I feel like I could actually be able to build it myself. I already have a bunch of separate lines in my game, but was growing tired of having to move from one to the other and get carts from chests and so on. This will simplify everything.
Works amazingly still on bedrock! Yes, put redstone dust on top of all the hoppers. Such a tight system.
and if you need any intersections, this was a great addition: ruclips.net/video/sxNExqSUW_4/видео.html
Thank you so much. I just built this and love the way you explained everything! It was very helpful
Glad you're having fun with it!
@@weirdwilliam8500 Come back, is your summer break over :(
I really like your tutorial
*Console players* Use droppers and put redstone on top. Works great, thank you for explaining the mechanics of each working part it helped a lot more when I had to trouble shoot.
If this build is not turning off rail line when selecting other lines double check your hoppers. I had this problem 8hrs after messing with this I figured it out. CROUCH WHEN PLACING YOUR HOPPER!
Newbie mistakes feels bad man
Thank you!
Shootout to K1. Guy was a beast and very detailed. Glad you got advice for him. Hope this works in bedrock realms. I just started a realm and would love to make this
I love your in depth tutorial. A world download would make me very happy. Thanks for the tutorial
Love your train stations! Thank you for this, though I'm afraid I'll have to watch the redstone bits a few times :)
I'm not sure if you will see this someday.. But I appreciate the video you made. I just started with a realm with friends and i was dealing with tutorials who weren't helpful enough. But you did an amazing job, taking the time to explain everything in a simple and entertaining way. Thank you so much!
Aw thanks, I’m so glad it’s been helpful for people. Have fun in your realm!
This tutorial was amazing. I appreciated the clear explanations, and the final station works really well. Thanks so much!
This tutorial was so awesome. I really appreciated the redstone explanation. You should come back and do more videos!
Thanks! I've definitely been considering making more. It's actually a lot of work and all my little kids are stuck at home with me all day. Still, I have some ideas I've been mulling over. :)
WeirdWilliam I’d love to see what you cook up. You have a knack for plain speech, which is awesome for useful contraptions that use redstone.
Thank you for creating this video, I only needed a small simple design for my needs and this shall work perfectly.
Really good video, worked out perfectly, even with a Train Station design that has an incoming and an outcoming line you can adapt it very easily.
Great, I'm glad! Yes, you could mirror the return line setup so it dumps the cart onto the launch line, and have it hit a cactus right by the launch area if you want. I've seen that done in other videos, but I like the separate return line because it gives you more control of where the passenger is ejected, and it reduces the risk of collisions. I also like the symmetry.
Great Tutorial! Extremely clear instructions. Worked perfectly first time. Thanks.
Awesome, I was amazed at this in your base
Just come from a video from cubey, This is explained sooo much better! love the explanations so you can actually learn rather than copy aimlessly. Keep up the awesome work!
The only thing that would have made this better would be a materials list, though I get that numbers would vary depending on how many rails you built (I had to keep running back home to get more supplies RIP). Other than that though, this was brilliant! I love that you took the time to explain what each piece was doing, the game mechanics behind the switching rails, the little detail with the different noteblock patterns- and especially the fact that you mentioned ways to make the build easier in survival even while you were in creative. I built a 7-rail station in our server, and I'll probably use this tutorial and build again in any other larger worlds I play :D
Thanks! I'm glad it's helping people to have fun.
so glad i read the description for once as i was raging bad as it wasnt working and watched 3 times and i did it all correct first time lol (XBOX ONE) i removed the half block from above the droppers and placed the redstone dust on the whole blocks above the droppers works great 100% impressed with how well it works for me XD my friends will be like WOAH!! i only started this game yesterday too lol
Hey this was really helpful man linked up all my buddies on our server with this, can confirm it works in multiplayer on the latest edition of Java. Have it set up on a spigot server. THANKS MAN
Awesome! That's exactly why I made the tutorial. So people could have fun on their servers like that. :)
I just want to specify that you can have 8 stations without any issue (instead of 7). You can even have much more stations than 8 but you need not select any stations that is more than 7 stations farther than the one currently selected or it won't reset. For example, I have built a 10 stations with this design but if track 1 is selected and I then select track 9, or 10, track one won't reset, instead, select track 6 and then select track 9 or 10 and it'll work. This is because redstone signal wont travel more than 15 blocks.
Also, use stone buttons to speed-up the selection process instead of wooden buttons.
Nice design, love it!
Yes, fair enough. If you want to make a much larger train station with each button still resetting all the lines, then I suggest looking up K1 Inc's design for up to 60-something lines. It just needs a fairly minor modification which makes the build a bit larger and more complex. I've often built it for nether hubs on the servers I play on. I linked to K1's video in an old comment on this video somewhere, and specified the time stamp for the exact modification.
@@weirdwilliam8500 Honestly, I much prefer the one you provided, much easier, much compact and easy to work with and expandable. Eight stations is usually more than anyone need ;o) I have built based on your desing and made it auto reset so every time I come to my station it is reset. Great work, great tutorial, love it!
thank you so much I have been looking for this. i have tried two other tutorials and neither worked for me. it works perfect!
I solved my problem shortly after sending the comment, so I deleted it though it didnt show you had already responded (I had placed dispensers instead of droppers, sigh). Anyway the tutorial was spot on, and thanks for including the changes for bedrock. Awesome work!
Hah, no worries. I've been hanging out on RUclips today so I'm quick on the draw. :P
Best tutorial ever. Very simple to follow and clear.
subbed and liked, wishing more growth to your channel brother
This is an amazing build and just what I was looking for. The only issue I am experiencing is the return cart not going into the hopper. Now, mine is configured in my mines, but that shouldn't impact it. This did work a couple of times, but then I had a fire. After the fire, it stopped working. I've checked the configuration to make sure it's still configured correctly. Yet the minecarts do not go into the hopper after hitting the cactus.
Thank you
I had just finished up with laying out two-track 4-way intersections in my mines when I came across this. Now I am changing the 4-way intersections from two tracks to single tracks. Well worth the effort in my book though.
My cactus had grown to a height of two. When it did that, it was destroying the minecarts. I cut it down to one, and it now appears to be working again.
Super easy to build, explained very well. and in my Realm world built facing east. it works perfectly! i LOVE this design. i plan on memorizing this and building a few of them!! Thank you so much.
Great! I'm glad my video is helpful. I've fallen away from Minecraft some this summer, mostly due to the weather. I live in a semi-arctic place so summer is special. Still, I'm hoping to do some more videos soon-ish.
WeirdWilliam I have a question if you’re able to help :) I’m in bedrock edition and my tracks switchback to default before the carts have even made it out of the departure area...
Been fiddling with it for days and can’t figure it out!
Most amazing tutorial ever!
I've been waiting for this one!!!
Thank you very much for this excellent tutorial!
Hello, I am on Windows version and I have my setup built exactly like you have yours, my issue is, when I test the design, the redstone dust lights up to the first repeater, then nothing happens after that, none of the redstone dust lights up above the hopper/dropper and beyond that point. If anyone has a solution to this it would be much appreciated!
exceptional tutorial. thank you
I'd add a small detector circuit so when it's leaving the station it resets the input. Obviously not needed, but then
Just finished building this and it’s incredible, simple tutorial and works incredibly well. Would love to see a version for changing lines too, I’ve got a line that goes so far and then ends and requires you to join another rail line mid way through the line. Would love a solution for that!
For that I think you would have to use activator
Before the power rail
Wonderful Tutorial! it just helped me a ton!
Glad I hit the bell-I dig your videos!
Very good video and so easy to understand!! Thank you!
Thanks for a good explanation, somebody that knows to do a tutorial, thanks a lot!
had problem, fix was at 18:38. i placed it the wrong way ( works on Bedrock update 1.19 just need one more redstone pr dropper)
PEOPLE ON JAVA: Some are having issues with the redstone lamps staying on. Place your hoppers on top of the dropper, and make sure the dropper is facing upward! Hope that helps.
👏👏👏 you gained a new subscriber!
This is working well, functionally, but the Redstone Lamps are not turning on for me following the same instructions and layout. Odd. Was something changed for 1.16.1?
Figured out the problem. I missed a Redstone patch on the back end section close to the rails. What a great guide! I'll stick around for more!
great guide! well explained!
this is awesome, thanks for the tutorial
Great tutorial and design. On Switch Edition, can't make it work. Can't put a rail on dispenser or hopper. just brings up inventory. What am I doing wrong?
There are sometimes very slight redstone differences across the various game platforms. In this case, maybe see if a dispenser can be placed alongside the rail, facing from the side onto the top of the rail? This might work to dispense the cart onto the rail, and then you could have the same delay of 4 repeaters with 4 ticks each, and have the cart dispense with the right delay after you push the launch button? That's all I can think of. xD
Alternately, you might just need to figure out the Switch version of "shift-click," which on a PC lets you click onto containers instead of opening them.
Thanks, I'll try that if i can. I can stop the cart with cactus, but the cart disappears after. I'm a bit limited on controller buttons.
I found out from a couple people that B(crouch)+ZL clicks on containers. Getting closer. It's not adding on the hopper, but I don't know much about hoppers/dispensers, yet. Thanks again ^_^
@@mayorami657 Great, I hope you figure it out. If there's a hopper right in front of the cactus then it should be picking up the cart when it breaks. Just make sure no redstone signals are locking the hopper or it won't be able to pick up anything, though. Good luck!
Can I make it accurate to real life and add some unpowered rails to the end section so I have more time to hop off & can I make some commuter stations for commutor lines? for other lines and Skip rails for the commuter stations?
I'm just having a problem with 1.14.4 where the dropper isn't placing the minecart on the rail and just leaves it as an item on top of it. It's a bit annoying and I'm not quite sure how to fix it.
I've had this happen, and it's usually for one of two reasons. First, you may be powering one of the hoppers in the chain, which will disable it. Make sure any torches/levers nearby for power rails are not also feeding a redstone signal into a hopper. You can use the F3 debug feature to examine whether a hopper is enabled or disabled. Alternatively, you may have placed the hoppers so that they are not feeding into each other all the way back to the dispenser. Good luck!
The rail is facing the wrong way when I power the junction and I can't seem to fix it, is it a directional problem?
Edit: I had to make a NOT gate to negate the first NOT gate
I'm not sure based on your description. If you've put the launch area on the wrong end, the cart will go out on the line closest to the launch bay pretty much no matter what. If you've activated and then turned off each line, and look at the rail junctions, they should each be curving the same way by default and then individually swap directions when activated.
@@weirdwilliam8500 Thanks for your fast reply!
This is more simple than what I was trying xD
Can I adjust it to only go to 2 or 3 destinations?
Truly amazing
Keep it up
Its not working for me not even the single trial when I build it alone
Im on java 1.14.3 but this is not working for me...the item never stays in the dropper
Im not understanding how this is a T flip flop because on its own, a T flip fop should be changing the output state when you toggle the input. But in this case, if the current station is selected, and you select it again, it does not deselect the current selected station as how a regular t flip flop would. Thanks, im just trying to learn :0
Does the terminal work in creative mode in mcpe i have tried a lot but it seems like you can't break minecart with cactus and send it into the dispenser everything else is working fine
My block isn’t transferring to my hopper from my dropper and the lamp won’t light but all my red stone and blocks are placed correctly. Is there a reason for this in a new update. I’m on pe
Never mind I just read the description😂😂 thanks for the tutorial very clear to understand.
for me the redstone doesnt turn off when i push the button
Make sure your arc of repeaters isn't coming around to power the redstone the button is turning them on with. You may have put the cart dispenser too close to the button. You can experiment with it a bit and configure it differently, but you just need a delay of 4 repeaters set to 4 ticks.
I'm having abit of a problem, everything works great untill the very last line of rail to return the minecart after you get ejected, the cart just starts to shake and won't make it back to the cactus?? Anyone have any solutions please
Callum monk How strange. I’ve seen that happen on activator rails. Did you maybe use those instead of power rails by accident, for the cart return portion?
Love this, best station design yet. Do you have any ideas for an occupied minecart vs empty or minechest/hopper detectors? That way freight and passengers can exist on the same line? I am currently using tripwire to divert the manned carts into my passenger stations, but would love to see something smarter that can detect empty/loaded passenger/freight.
I have a few ideas off the top of my head. For returning carts related to passengers/empty carts, you can use a tripwire, but you could alternatively have a detector rail on the return line and a set of power rails after it that will accelerate an occupied cart at a different speed than an empty cart. Then set up a junction activated by the detector rail that will temporarily divert, at a point right past those power rails, and couple it with a timing system that will trigger the diverting junction *after* an occupied cart speeds by the junction but right *before* a slower unoccupied cart arrives. You can divert and filter out the slower empty carts to a separate rail that way. Does that make sense?
I believe you can also use this cart speed + timed junction system to separate empty carts from carts with hoppers or chests, since I think those move along at speeds comparable to carts holding passengers. Combine that with the tripwire to separate passengers from the other types of carts, and you should be able to separate all of these categories from each other.
That would be fun to set up. I've never had a need for it because (unless they've changed it in recent updates), unoccupied carts just go into unloaded chunks on longer rails and don't progress. This could still be a really cool way to move items out of a nearby strip mine, or something like that, with a shared passenger line to get down to the mining area.
Quick Question (I know im late lol) I think i heard you say you could do this with 2 to 7 lines. Why is there an upper limit. Surely there could be as many lines as you want?
Harry Mann It’s actually up to 8 lines. It’s limited by redstone signals only going 15 dust long before tapering out, which applies to the line of redstone dust under the control panel. Any longer and the buttons on on side of the control panel can’t reset the lines on the opposite side. K1 Inc details a modified setup that allows up to 62 lines, heh. I’ve only done it up to 14 or so, for nether hubs.
I have a slight problem! the back torch will not lit and the dirt wont move into the hopper. Is there something im doing wrong?
Is the repeater set to 2 ticks? Are you in Java or some other platform?
@@weirdwilliam8500 im playing on concole
@@melfur9430 I think someone said they put redstone on top of the dropper or something, for console? But if it works differently then I'm just not sure. :/
mel fur I did 5 and two of them didn’t light up so I took the dirt out of the dropper and it worked also I had the redstone on top of the dropper
Is there any way to get a minecart sent back automatically? I'm concerned about the minecrarts in the hub getting drained.
Unfortunately empty carts can’t move through unloaded chunks. If there’s a destination like an end portal where people won’t return back by rail, I sometimes put a chest to collect the carts, and an ender chest next to it so people can then periodically transfer carts back. There’s no perfect solution.
Ok so everything works amazing but i don't get kicked out the minecart on the platform, I go straight through the gate and banner. I even tried it with a solid block instead of gate and went through thst too! Any ideas? I'm in survival and I built it in the Nether
Sorry to hear that. If you use the activator rail, instead of a powered rail, then it will pop you out of the minecart. The activator rail is the specific rail type that does this and is rarely used, but in this case it's essential for the ejection feature. So make sure it's an activator rail and that it's activated (on) by a redstone torch underneath the block it's on, or a lever, etc, and you shouldn't have any problems. I hope this helps!
Great tutorial. But I play on ps4 and everything works well until the minecart hits the cactus and disappears breaking the minecart completely.. any fix for this?
Really? That's a very different mechanic. If that's the case, the only thing I could recommend would be having a returning cart run on rail above the station until it ran off the rail into a hole where it fell down onto the cart launch site. That still doesn't leave you with a reserve of carts, although you could also set up a pillar of stacked minecarts that could add or dispense one cart at a time to the top or from the bottom of the stack. A bit ungainly, still. I'm still surprised a cactus immediately destroys carts that impact the side of it in PS4. That would also take away their use to end ice lines by breaking and collecting the boats. :/
I’m having the same issue on mobile🙁
I did everything correctly but the rail goes crazy and always goes to the previous station selected...I need help I have observed that the cart mostly goes to station 1 or 2 I copied the video exactly as it is but still something is going wrong
So i realised what I was doing wrong my station was facing north and I found out that his original station design was the one is should be working on and I changed the departure and arrival spots and changed the track to one similar to his original work and bravo it worked like a charm yet the dispenser isn't working that well working on it
@@mohammadadilhussain2856 Glad you figured it out. I hadn't checked comments but that would be what I suggested. The dispenser needs 4 repeaters on 4 ticks, for the right amount of delay, to avoid launching the next cart too. If that's the problem.
@@weirdwilliam8500 i have copied that exactly but the cart doesn't comes out I think I need to double check the build again

@@animekun2041 Welcome to the game! I hope you have fun.
Are you in Java or another version? You might want to try putting a piece of redstone on top of each dropper and that could fix it. If you're in Java then I'm not sure what the problem is without more description or an image. If you're getting a "dispenser failed" message then that's odd, because the control panel and rail line stuff shouldn't have any dispensers.

My cart gets destroyed in 1.15 or hopper doesn't pick it up
Check that a redstone torch or lever nearby isn't locking one of the hoppers that you intend to return the broken minecart. I've made that mistake before.
@@weirdwilliam8500 I destroyed everything and recreated. Working now. Thank you
Can’t get mine to work for some reason I looked at your video over and over to see if I for got something but can’t seem to find the problem
What is specifically the issue?
in need of help i play on the xbox one but bedrock, but i can’t seem to get the station to lock so i can go to the desired station. but instead it turns off after the button is pressed and goes back to the original position. plz help
Try putting a piece of redstone dust on the top of each dropper. I believe that's how someone else got it to work for Bedrock. The t-flip flop relies on signal budding, which may not work the same in Bedrock and require that fix. Hope that works!
Hi, re-watched a couple of times incase I was forgetting something , when I get to the part where you click the buttons and do the reset , the lights stay on as well as the top level of redstone . I'm on Java (1.14.4)
Also would like to thank you for making the Tutorial , like others have said , it's nice to have someone explain what the redstone actually does.
It sounds like the dirt is staying in the hopper instead of returning to the dropper, when you're pushing buttons. Is the hopper's nozzle facing into the dropper for each line? Some other people have had that issue. Remember the hopper's output is directional depending on the block you're clicking against when you place the hopper.
And thanks! I'm hoping to get back into making tutorials eventually, but I've been distracted by other things of late.
@@weirdwilliam8500 I connected the hopper to the dropper and it still wont go back into the hopper.
@@wildginger01 Ok, but when the lines are all on like you described, is the dirt block in the hopper or the dropper? From what I understand, for the lines to be on like that then the dirt should be stuck in the hoppers. If dirt is in the droppers and the top part is all on, then there's some other big issue.
@@weirdwilliam8500 I have the same issue I'm on windows 10 edition, the hopper IS connected to the dropper but the dirt stays in the hopper...
WeirdWilliam Having the same issue as OP. Hopper is placed on top of dropper in my case. Everything seems fine until the test. Note block and light go off, but the redstone torch is on and the comparator is off. It won't reset to look like the others.
Noooo you stopped making videos. I really enjoyed this tutorial 🥲
Aw, thanks. Glad it was useful. I’m still around but got into other things.
came to the comments to say the same thing, this is going to be perfect for out server. and thank you for being so kind the way you've have explained this as a total redstone novice its nice not to feel like and idiot when trying to learn. Thankfully for our server the building of this will not be done by me, but I really appreciate you!
It is not working on minecraft mobile the button doesn't work. Help.
I'm not sure if there are any redstone differences on mobile since I've never used it. I'd guess you need to put a piece of redstone dust on top of each dropper, though, which is the simple fix to get it to work in Bedrock edition. Try that?
Will this build work on the Switch? I have tried several times and it doesn't seem to work?
I'm not sure, but putting a piece of redstone dust on top of each dropper may fix it, like it does in Bedrock. The java build uses BUD mechanics which don't always carry over into the other versions.
Amazing build!
I just have one question; it doesnt dissmount me - any idea why? I have the banner and the fence gate, yet make the whole round trip to the cactus :(
Glad you're liking it! For your question, are you sure there is an activator rail at the dismount area, and not a power rail? Is the activator rail powered by a redstone signal? If no to either question, then you won't dismount.
@@weirdwilliam8500 got me there - wrong rail. Thank you!
Hi thanks for the awesome tutorial but somehow my hopper cant receive the dropper's dirt hence the system not working
I'm playing the latest version as of this date (1.16.4)
Hi there. Are all the repeaters set to 2 ticks? That's the most likely culprit, if not. I've built this station in 1.16.4 and had it work.
Hey guys. Some help would be very much appreciated. No matter what we try, the tracks switch back to default position before the cart reaches them
We are in bedrock edition on Xbox one of it helps
It sounds like you built the launch on the wrong side? If the cart is taking the first line out every time, then it's on the wrong side. Does that help or is it a different problem?
WeirdWilliam it goes right through to the return side immediately. Because the tracks flip back to their original position before the cart gets to them. So there’s not enough delay between choosing a station and leaving the platform before the tracks reset
@@SlenderManProjectUK Ah, I see. Did you see the note in my description saying that you need a piece of redstone dust on top of each dropper if you're in Bedrock? If that's the not the issue either, then you should check and make sure the repeaters are on 2 ticks. I think the control panel should work with wood as well as stone buttons, but you might try using different buttons instead, too.
If the cart is going all the way through then that means the track is correct and the reset feature is probably correct, but the hopper/torch lock timing is off, or the dropper isn't shooting the dirt over at all. I don't think xbox redstone is different enough from Java that this shouldn't work. The typical issue is the Java BUD mechanics that work differently, but redstone dust on top of each dropper fixes that in bedrock.
WeirdWilliam following your tutorial I couldn’t actually get the buttons on the station selection to trigger everything. So I tried a modified version of the upper layer (leading to the Redstone lamp). That triggers fine now. But the delay issue is still present which ever way I build it. Even with the Redstone dust tip 🤷🏻♂️ I wondered if I built it wrong somewhere so tried again in creative from scratch and it still didn’t work fully
WeirdWilliam I added more repeater delay and it’s working like a dream now! Thank you
I need some help, when I press any of the numbers the light will come on but it will only take me to the first one
Right, this almost certainly means you build the cart launch and return line on the wrong sides, sorry. If you build the launcher on the wrong side it will always send the cart to the first line only. :/
On bedrock edition, do you keep the repeater on top of hopper and delete the full block over the dropper and put the red stone dust on the dropper, or half slab over dropper and put red stone dust on that???
You don't have to delete or move any blocks. The droppers (the ones that shoot dirt into the hoppers) each have an empty space over them, below the block the repeater is facing into. So, just put a piece of redstone dust on top of each dropper. That should fix it in bedrock.
Awesome, it worked, thank you so much for the response!
Thank you for making this one. I’m using the latest Bedrock build on iPad and XBox. Your design works great with the added Redstone on Droppers.
I am having an issue however where passengers get ejected out of the cart on the last 2 routes/rail lines as it is passing through the spaghetti rails. The first 2 railways work as they should. The last 2 the passenger gets kicked out but the rail car goes to the correct rail line (#3 or #4 ) and tunnel in my case. Everything looks to be the same. I’ve redone the powered and non powered rails but same result.
Any ideas? Thank you!
It sounds like you may have placed a couple activator rails instead of power rails, among the rail spaghetti in the back. Carefully inspect them and see if that's the case? They look subtly different but very similar. If the cart is not destroyed but the passenger is still popping out, then that's pretty much all it could be.
WeirdWilliam Thank you! I’ll check later today.
You nailed it! I found 2 Activator Rails. Replaced and all is good! Thank you again.

@@dorisleesman4727 Sure, let me know if it works
If I had 20+ points of interest, could I place each T flip flop next to each other or will the red stone overlap??? I play bedrock if it makes a difference.
This one works for up to 8 lines, actually, since a redstone signal can only activate up to 15 blocks of redstone dust in a row. That's the limiting factor for the reset system under the buttons.
If you really want 20 lines, you can either look up a video by K1 Inc who did a 2-62 line system I believe, which is sort of similar to mine, or you could make like a main station with 5 lines, each of which go to a substation with 4 lines, for example, for 20 lines total.
Hope that helps.
@@weirdwilliam8500 I definitely will take a look at what K1 has to offer. However, I devised a system similar to the one you described; with substations and main stations. My plan for my world is to map a 5x5 item frame, 25 maps, and connect all towns to my town. Along with various points of interest. The return system is amazing and will each have their own building for each town.
THANKS!!!
@@mchaelc.1477 Sounds like an awesome plan. Have fun!
Hi there. This is a very nice train station and I'd like to build this in my Bedrock Edition world. Will it work?
It should. There's a very simple tweak for bedrock that I include in the video description.
I heard that depending on the direction you're building this can mess up the system. In which direction should I do it? Thanks for this amazing tutorial
I talk about this partway through the tutorial. Basically you build out the row of rail junctions, then press each line button to activate and reset each junction, then you can go and look which way their default orientation is and then build the rest of the station based on that. If you build the cart launch on the correct side, the station works perfectly. If you've built the launch on the wrong side, then the cart will always take the first line out no matter which line has been selected.
In short, yes, the side the launch area needs to be on depends on which direction the station is facing, but the tutorial shows how to figure out the correct side.
@@weirdwilliam8500 alright, thanks :)
Would this still work for the most recent version of the game? Thanks. :)
It works in 1.15.2. From what I've seen, it should also work with the new redstone changes for 1.16 in the latest snapshot, although I'd have to double check.
