Oak Town Station

From Dogcraft Wiki

Oak Town Station, named after the oak-style village that was at its location prior to construction and transformation, was the fourth and last station on the Survival 4 Husky World for the West-Line.

Design

When you arrive at the station, you arrive at the edge of Oak Town. The station location was built where there was previously a vanilla Minecraft village. 20.png Skelleton123 came up with the insane idea to transform the whole village around the station. Inspiration was taken from 'village transformation' videos by Mythical Sausage, another great youtuber.

Going with a theme of mostly spruce walls and oak framing and roofs, every single house in the village was transformed and given some purpose. Most of them are just farmer houses, but if you take a look around you'll find a general store, church and fisherman as well. Two buildings were added to the layout to connect to other transport networks as well. On the far west side of the village you can find an RHN stop to park your horse. Across the station, next to the water you'll find a CSC stop to park your boat. In the center of the village you'll find an oversized oak tree. Legend says it was planted by a young Skelleton123 when he was just a boy.

History

The location of the station was planned early 2021. Construction started halfway through March and took a couple of weeks to complete. In the final weeks, the actual station and track leading there was quickly accomplished. The station was opened a couple of days later on 30 May 2021, just over a year after opening West-Station.

By 9 June 2021 the RHN had also completed the road from Nimwald towards Oak Town, connecting the village via a secondary method of travel. Now you can get there either by train, horse, boat and of course elytra!

Station Facilities

The station itself had two maps of the surroundings. One showed the village in a bit bigger detail, and one zoomed out a bit so you can see what's around it. There was also an enderchest, normal chest and crafting bench inside the station. The nether portal connecting you to the NTN was a few steps down the road towards the CSC docks. You can see it standing on the platform. Unlike most stations, this one offered a lot of places to lay down and take a nap. Each house in the village provided you with a bed to sleep in. Some even have other workbenches (Loom for example) or furnaces you can use! Don't forget to turn off the gas when you leave, we don't want the place to burn down!


The village, as mentioned before, also had an RHN stop and a CSC dock to park either horses or boats if you prefer to travel on in a different matter from here. Both of these housed a book where you can log your stay.
