Features beyond Vanilla

2024-03-17T12:40:08Z

Eybwam: added more features

Dogcraft is a large public server, which requires some changes to vanilla Java Minecraft in order to balance the game and make it fun for everyone, no matter when they join in the server's lifecycle.

In the past modified loot tables and specialty traders were used to supply access to otherwise non renewable items. Due to updates that have made these items farmable Survival 5 has not continued these.

==Homes and Warping==
Players can "bookmark" locations to warp to/from within each server. Each Home creation costs a small amount of DCD. See [[Guide: Homes]] for instructions.

==Minor Tweaks==

* Items are not destroyed in lava
* Signs can be edited when right-clicking them while holding another sign item
* Totems of Undying in the inventory will activate upon death
* Holding a torch prevents phantoms from swooping
* Stonecutters deal one damage when stood on
* Items named in an anvil can be coloured by typing a colour code (e.g. <#ff4512>)
* Parrots can be bred with wheat seeds
* Wearing any armour part with a Gold trim keeps Piglins neutral
* Shift-clicking compostable items into a composter fills it
* Holding shears deal damage when sprinting or swimming

==Mob Heads==
Mob heads are obtainable as drops. See [[Guide:Mob Heads|Mob Heads Guide]].

Scoobchester Manor

Eybwam: Made Past Tense, added navbox and made minor revisions.

'''{{ROOTPAGENAME}}''' was the base of {{Player|Scooberson}} on the [[Survival 4]] world of the [[Dogcraft Server]].

==About==
The Scoobchester Manor was based on the real life Winchester House in San Jose, California. The base itself was a cluster of buildings of various sizes and shapes constructed out of a stone brick ground level and a quartz upper level. Each build had a stone brick roof with an organic slope built to the shape of each building. In numerous places, these roofs overlapped or connected to each other.

Construction on the base followed a specific set of rules. They were the following:

 

* Each building focused on one particular aspect of survival (Smelting, Storage etc.)
* Basements were only made to serve the upper building's needs functionally/aesthetically.
* Each building must connect to another directly, no ground paths to other places.
* One building at a time, build must be completed before moving to the next.

Progress on the base was very slow. As a result by the close of Survival 4, only five buildings were able to be constructed.

'''Main House'''

The main house was the first constructed and served as the main entrance to the base. This building served as a foyer on the lower level and housed bedrooms upstairs. The rules were a bit relaxed on this build as it had to serve as the starter home until more was built. As a result, it did have a basement to house animals and a potion corner upstairs.

'''Storage'''

The storage building was the second building and was the most used of the five. The downstairs was for bulk storage as well as a workbench for Scooberson's Hidey Hole shulker kits. Upstairs was the main storage area, designed similar to a warehouse with chests on shelves and a rack in the middle of the room. The rack was where the base log was kept. Additionally, off to the side was a workspace for crafting and valuables storage.

'''Smeltery'''

The smeltery building came third whose purpose was tied to the furnace. The lower level housed the smelter array itself, as well as a decorative forge area to represent the blast furnace. Upstairs was decorated to fit the smoker as a kitchen and dining room. The kitchen stored food and served as the smelter controls. Since the kitchen was a decorative room, the controls were disguised in the decoration. The input cart was in a cabinet, the fuel cart switch was toggled with a cauldron by adding or removing "Soapy water" and the smelter output was in the fridge.

'''Library'''

The library was fourth and served to house the enchanting table. This building was Scooberson's favorite of the five. The enchanting table was up a spiral staircase lined with bookshelves. The room also featured a sitting area on a raised platform in the middle of the tower. In the library, you can also find lecterns containing various books Scooberson had picked up over the course of Survival 4.

'''Villager House'''

The villager house was the final building constructed. It's purpose was geared towards serving both as a trade hall and an iron farm. However, due to Scooberson's lack of planning, the tower housing the iron farm was too close to the other buildings so golems kept spawning on the roof nearby. It's since been decommissioned and remained in place to reflect the purpose of the build.

==History==
Originally, foundations for the first building were laid on Husky. However, with the opening of the Beagle world, the foundations were torn down and moved to the other world. Throughout the course of Survival 4, a base log was kept in the storage building for logging any additions or changes to the base, however, in early Survival 4 a few logs were forgotten so a few gaps exist. Below is a list of key developments in the build. Any further logs can be found in the world download of the base.

==Trivia==

* The base features several secrets within. Some are not as easy to find as others.
* The base largely lacks doors, this was intentional to allow players to explore a little if they find the base.
* A few staff members have made a secret room within the base.
* The base log was meant to be moved to the library, but Scooberson didn't trust himself to remember it, so it remained in the storage room.
* There was a direct path from the storage house to the dining room, but was removed when the villager house was added.
* The main house basement used to be the villager dungeon. But they were freed when the villager house came to be.
* The armorstand with bbrain's head was placed by Iron to look after the server when both Iron and Scooberson got off the server.
* The pile of chests in the corner of the storage room holds confiscated goods from rule-breaking players. Scooberson keeps them for reasons unknown.
* The cow in the dining room comes from a tradition of Scooberson's started all the way back in the fan owned servers. Every world, somehow a cow wanders into his base, entirely without any action by Scooberson. When it is found it is named according to the location found and incorporated into the room. This world's cow is Waiter Cow: Server of Meals
* A villager trapped in a surface cave to the west of the base has been there since the first month of beagle. He was meant to be moved to the villager hall, but was forgotten.

'''{{{{{|safesubst:}}}ROOTPAGENAME}}''' was the base of {{Player|ToBeFranky}} on the [[Survival 5]] [[Akita]] world of the [[Dogcraft Server]].

==About the Base==
Started in late 2022 when ''ToBeFranky'' joined the server, Lovehølm was inspired by many small towns found in northern Norway. The base was centered around a large natural cove, with a colourful row of houses lining the waterfront. Several piers also broke up the seawall on this side of the bay. To the west of these houses lied the town's [[Connected Seas Coalition|CSC]] Port, which a marked out buoy route connected it with [[Spawn Port (Akita)|Akita Spawn Port]].

At the end of the bay was a large mansion house built out of tuff. Perched on the side of a terraformed mountain, the mansion house was built in a modern style, and featured spacious interior rooms all of which were decorated. Several custom trees lined the banks of the cove and area surrounding the mansion, accompanied by small waterfalls cascading underneath pathways down the cliffside to the cove below.

On the southern side of the cove was a large farmstead, complete with a colourful barn and sweeping crop fields of wheat, carrots and potatoes. Taking the winding road from the row of houses up the bank took you to Lovehølm hotel, a place where weary travelers could stay. This large building also contained many furnished rooms, with a guest book being located in the reception area. The area behind and adjacent to the hotel was flattened with roads being extended into the area in preparation for further building, but this never came to fruition due to ''ToBeFranky'' becoming inactive by mid-2023.

'''{{{{{|safesubst:}}}ROOTPAGENAME}}''' was the base of {{Player|N1cM4tth3w63}} on the Akita world of [[Survival 5]] on the [[Dogcraft Server]]. The base was founded shortly after the the release of Survival 5 in March 2023, and was worked on at a steady pace until the end of Survival 5 in October 2023.

==About the Base==
The base was inspired by a lot of the buildings ''N1cM4tth3w63'' would see on his trips to Spain. Later inspiration was taken from the City of [[Leon]], with ''N1cM4tth3w63'' trying to experiment with different and more daring block palettes. The first builds to be constructed were the lower row of houses by the waters edge, nestled into the cliff face. These houses acted at facades for the more functional aspects of the base, with a honey farm, wool farm, auto-smelter and store room located behind each respectively.

Outside the lower houses was a spacious waterfront, with several winding staircases leading up to the upper end of the town. These builds were much larger in scale but unfortunately were never completed, and largely remained as front facades, one was completed and decorated into a clothes shop though.

As 2023 began ''N1cM4tth3w63'' lost motivation on the town area and turned his attention to a hillside a few hundred blocks away from the main town. This would become a large castle, one of ''N1cM4tth3w63''<nowiki/>'s more ambitious builds, as it was designed to feature minimal straight lines, instead being built largely diagonally. There were many different sections to the castle, with the terraformed cliffside, to the several towers and battlements, to the large keep at the rear.

The central courtyard of the castle was planned to be the location for the town's SRN Station, which would be part of the Akita Ring Line. Unfortunately due to the reset occurring, these plans never materialized.

'''{{{{{|safesubst:}}}ROOTPAGENAME}}''' was a build on the [[Survival 5]] world of the [[Dogcraft Server]] by {{Player|kusttra}}.

==About==
My goal on Sur5 was to build my scale [[LEGO House]], but to do so I needed very large amounts of wool. While that wool was generating, I expanded my base quite a lot. At some point, though, I needed to find another large project that was in the vicinity of my wool farm. Additionally, I had collected a load of deepslate that was just taking up room in my bulk storage. With those combined things, I decided to build a large fortified structure, and thus the Diamond Cathedral was born.

==History==
I first built the outer walls and turrets - at this point I hadn't decided what the build would actually be. After much hunting for different depictions of fortified structures online, I found some really impressive designs for fantasy cathedrals. Additionally, as the build was on the cliff overlooking [[The Cabin|my base]], I really liked how the height would stand above everything else.

After adding in the full structure of the cathedral, I though it would be interesting to really take advantage of the new spawning rules in 1.18 (at the time), and light the entire building with the least amount of candles I could manage. It lends it a very moody feeling that I find quite appropriate.
Lastly, I decided to add some outbuildings - a barracks for guards, a couple storage buildings, a couple residences and an inn. Unfortunately, I was pulled away from the server for quite a while before I could finish these structures. With the impending end of the server, I decided to jump back on and finish up what I could. I finished the outer structure, but there wasn't time to add interiors to these buildings.

'''{{{{{|safesubst:}}}ROOTPAGENAME}}''' was the base of {{Player|kusttra}} on the [[Survival 5]] world of the [[Dogcraft Server]].

==About==
My goal this server was to build a scale [[LEGO House]]. Initially, I wanted to build it out of concrete, but given the scale, I quickly realized a renewable solution was necessary, so I turned to wool. My main base, then, was entirely about creating a sheep farm to generate the necessary wool. With that in mind, I set out to find a location I liked. Not too far out from spawn, I discovered an impressive natural cliff over a river in a giant tree taiga biome. Given the setting, I felt a cabin was the best choice, and set about putting in something that looked quite nice. I decided to lean into the naturally available resources, and build extensively with spruce. I then decided to use weathered copper as a primary roofing material. The first floor contained storage and crafting and the second floor was the bedroom and enchanting. Beneath the cabin was a bulk item storage, a wither killing room, a nether portal, and a dark secret...

[[File:The_Cabin_Head_Room.png|frameless]]

[[File:The_Cabin_Head_Altar.png|frameless]]

==History==
After getting the cabin built, I worked to put in my sheep farm, as well as an automatic collection system for it. I put in 6 floors of 16 sheep each, as I originally intended to use all Minecraft colors in the LEGO house build.

[[File:The_Cabin_Wool_Collection_Dropoff.png|frameless]]

[[File:The_Cabin_Wool_Storage.png|frameless]]

As I needed more materials, I added buildings and farms. First was an iron farm, which I built into a water-tower-esque design across the river.

[[File:The_Cabin_Iron_Farm.png|frameless]]

Next was a boathouse for launching exploration expeditions, as well as a small farm and storage hut for food as well as a cow farm.

[[File:The_Cabin_Food.png|frameless]]

After a while, I got a bit sick of eating baked potatoes and decided to put in a pumpkin pie farm. I built them in a set of smaller cabins near the iron farm tower.

[[File:The_Cabin_Pumpkin_Pie_Farm.png|frameless]]

At this point, I was getting bored waiting for enough wool to generate for the LEGO house, and started looking for new projects. First, I installed a village in the area behind my cabin. I decided to go for a bit of a Norse theme, using historical records of Norse villages for building inspiration. Additionally, I made a stave church-inspired build in the center of the village, housing all of my librarians.

Eventually, I acquired an elytra, and needed gunpowder for rockets. So, I installed what I call the Crying Creeper, a gunpowder-crying giant creeper statue that held a small creeper farm. Additionally, I added three small sugarcane farms for paper generation.

[[File:The_Cabin_Crying_Creeper.png|frameless]][[File:The_Cabin_Sugarcane_Farms.png|frameless]]

For reasons I can no longer recall, I also decided to add a melon farm in a large tower.

Lastly, I decided to start on my other large build on the server - the Diamond Cathedral.

{{SRN World Navigation}}

The '''''Survival 5 Railway Network''''' is a project on the Shepherd and Akita worlds of the [[Dogcraft Server]]. The SRN's goal is to provide a high quality rail transport network to help player get around the server. This is the fifth iteration of the server that the organisation has been present in, after previously seeing lots of success in the previous four iterations of the server.

==Network==
The fifth iteration of the SRN is present on two of the four worlds, with Labrador and Corgi currently not seeing active rail development by the SRN team. This decision was made to maintain the SRN's leading idea of 'quality over quantity' with the fear of having more sub-par station builds and the risk of burnout had the network expanded to accommodate all four of the new worlds. However, Grand Central Stations have been pre-built in all four spawn areas, with the SRN team open to potentially expanding operations to all four worlds in the future, if they see it fit. In the meantime, the [[Community Rail Network]] (CRN) has been established to serve both Labrador and Corgi worlds.

In addition to the SRN, the [[Nether Transport Network]] has also returned for the new world, and will again run alongside the SRN with portals at all main line stations. The SRN team are also hoping to further integrate with the other newer transport networks that were started in Survival 4, that being the [[Road and Horse Network]] and the [[Connected Seas Coalition|Connected Seas]] [[Connected Seas Coalition|Coalition]], with the hope of providing even more variety in transport options and easy transitions between them.

==Headquarters==
The Survival 5 HQ will be located on Shepherds Spawn island, just outside the pre-built spawn area. Currently the HQ building has not been built, but the resource basement has been. There is also a resource donation point at the site of the HQ, allowing players to donate materials to the network during the early game.

==Management==
The management of the SRN would only see minor changes in the transition from [[Survival 4]] to [[Survival 5]], with the three line managers on Husky transitioning over to Shepherd, and the three line managers on Beagle transitioning over to Akita. The structure on Shepherd would remain the same, with conductor {{Player|expedtadam}} working on the North Line, {{Player|Skelleton123}} working on the West Line, and
[[File:SRNLMFeb23.png|left|thumb|The 7 active Line Managers meet for a photo in February 2023.]]
{{Player|Slomo_1994}} working on the East Line. The former Beagle team would see some minor changes going into Akita. {{Player|eybwam}} would move from the West Line to the East Line and {{Player|darparniox}} would return to managing a single line, that being the North Line. Lastly, {{Player|Montenator}} would keep his position working on the South Line. Announced in the SRN discord on January 7th 2023 {{Player|Ze_Tais}} joined the team dedicating themselves to the Akita West line. The remaining vacant line (Shepherd South) would be overseen by all the line managers as a collective, with station builds generally being offered to helpers through the SRN Discord.

==Spawn Build==
[[File:GCS Shepherd.png|thumb|Shepherd's GCS]]
The SRN team would again be invited to build Grand Central Station in the pre-built spawn areas of each world. The Shepherd GCS would take heavy inspiration from [[wikipedia:Rotterdam_Centraal_station|Rotterdam Centraal Station]] in the Netherlands. The design was primarily done by ''Skelleton123'' but the other line mangers helped out with track building and interior design as well.

[[File:GCS Akita.png|left|thumb|Akita's GCS.]]
Akita's Grand Central Station would be built in a similar theme to the rest of the spawn area, that being a gold rush theme. The station was located on a small peninsula of the main spawn island, with its longer slender design stretching along the length of it. This station was primarily built by ''Skelleton123''.

Both Shepherd and Akita GCS' were built under the assumption there would only be two worlds for Survival 5, however when it was announced to the build team there would be four worlds, the SRN Team decided to make the decision to not operate on the newer worlds, with the workload just being unrealistic to maintain. As previously mentioned the line managers did agree to build spawn stations at Labrador and Corgi's spawns, keeping doors open for potential future use.

Labrador's GCS would be in-keeping with the sci-fi space base style of the spawn area, and would again be the work of ''Skelleton123''. Corgi's GCS was a joint effort between ''Skelleton123'' and ''Slomo_1994'', taking the form of a large tent that might be found in a dig site.

==Starting Out==
[[File:ShepNorthBS.png|thumb|Player working on the Shepherd North Viaduct during a build session.]]
This time around, the SRN team were more than ready to take on two worlds, now having a team of 6 line managers as well as an active group of helpers. Each line manager quickly got to work finding an area for the first station on their respective line, and starting to map out a path for tracks to go running from the spawns to these stations. The two vacant lines were also swiftly delegated to other members of the community, with {{Player|Ze_Tais}} offering to build the first [[MOTTO Station|West Station]] on Akita, which was also located in the same area as the ever growing player built shopping district called [[MOTTO]]. Former line manager {{Player|Aeghu}} would volunteer to build Shepherd South Station meaning all the initial station now had a builder working on them. While scouting out an area for the first East Station on Akita, ''eybwam noticed'' {{Player|MattKi01}} was building his base in an area ideal for the first East Station. So the idea was floated to have the first East Station at his base, to which ''MattKi01'' agreed, and would shortly thereafter begin work on it.
[[File:ShepWestShader.png|left|thumb|Shepherd West Station, which opened in May 2022.]]
Both Shepherd and Akita spawns were located on mushroom islands surrounded by ocean, meaning either tunnels or viaducts would need to be built to connect the spawn areas with the rest of the world. After previously constructed underwater tunnels to connect the Survival 3 Spawn Basin with the rest of the world, the SRN Team decided to build viaducts to cross the ocean in Survival 5. Some viaducts were build individually, such as the Akita South Viaduct and the Shepherd East viaduct, however others were built in large build sessions which were great in getting the community involved with the network. These viaducts were the Akita North Viaduct, the Akita West Viaduct and the Shepherd North Viaduct. As April drew to a close, ''Ze_Tais'' would finish building the first Akita West Station, now known as [[MOTTO Station]]. [[South Station (Akita)|Akita South Station]] would be completed by ''Montenator'' a few days later and they would both open in a joint opening on the 24th of April 2022.
 

==A New Rail Group==
[[File:ShepEastOpen.png|thumb|Player at Shepherd East during the Kirwick opening.]]
After seeing the absence of rail networks on both Labrador and Corgi, the server {{Rank|HeadMod}}'s contacted {{Player|N1cM4tth3w63}} asking if he would be interested in leading a rail group which would cover both Labrador and Corgi. After some initial miscommunications and misunderstandings between parties the new rail group known as The Other Rail Network (now known as the [[Community Rail Network]]), would begin operations on both worlds, with SRN Line Managers serving a kind of consultant role if needed, and hope to work with the network in the future.

Meanwhile on the SRN side of things ''Skelleton123'' would open [[West Station (Shepherd)|Shepherd West Station]] on the 12th of May 2022, after hosting a build session to finish the track to the station earlier that same day. The station would also serve as a large RHN rest stop, for the ever growing amount of roads in the area, being spearheaded by {{Player|TyrantrumGOD}} and {{Player|_Shako}}. June would see more solid progress on other stations. With ''darparniox'' designing a build for Akita [[North Station (Akita)|North Station]], and starting to transfer it into survival. ''MattKi01'' would finish constructing the bulk of Akita East Station, now known as Emberperch Station, and begin expanding the line westwards to met the line at spawn. ''Aeghu'' would also make considerable progress on Shepherd South Station, finishing the bulk of the exterior as well as designing a viaduct to cross the ocean towards spawn.

May would also see the first edition of The Minecart Gazette released. This was a project spearheaded by ''Skelleton123'', and would become a monthly newsletter where Line managers and NTN Managers would provide a progress update of their respective lines/worlds. Allowing an easy way for the community to stay up to date with the progress of the SRN and NTN. The Gazette is published every month in the announcements channel of the SRN/NTN Discord, and is also available as a written book in game that can be purchased at the SRN HQ for the price of one iron ingot per issue.
[[File:MoorOpen.png|left|thumb|Players at Moor Station on the Akita South Line.]]
The month of July would see Slomo_1994 open Shepherd East Station on the 10th. Later on that month {{Player|misterblue28}} announced the return of the SRN Network Maps. A build session took place on the 16th of July 2022, to flatten a snow biome to make way for the maps on Shepherd and Akita. This time around the record was smashed again, with both areas being cleared out in just under 4 hours. ''misterblue28'' would add the current stations onto the maps and send them out to Line Managers later that month. July would also see ''Slomo_1994'' start transferring the design for the second east station on Shepherd into survival. This is known as [[Kirwick Station]], and will eventually be the site of ''Slomo_1994'''s main base. From there negotiations with both [[Caelon]] and [[Leon]] have taken place, with Leon set to have the third station on the Shepherd East Line, and Caelon to have a station on the Shepherd Ring Line. ''Skelleton123'' would also begin constructing the second Shepherd West station this month. ''Montenator'' would post the site of the second west station on Akita up for the taking on the SRN discord, with ''MattKi01'' agreeing to build it after [[Ember Perch Station|Emberperch Station]] is opened.

== The Network Grows ==
[[File:KirwickShader.png|thumb|Kirwick Station and the town surrounding it. The base of Shepherd East LM Slomo_1994.]]
August would see ''Montenator'' open the second and third stations on the Akita South Line, those being [[Electric Grove Station]], built by {{Player|NeoFiore}}, and [[Moor Station]], built by ''Montenator''. Moor Station also serves the town of [[Flowercliffe]], which is located just west of the station. ''expedtadam'' would also scout out a location for the second Shepherd North Station and put it up for grabs on the SRN Discord. September would start to see many more stations completed. North Station on Akita would be the first to open this month, with [[Kirwick Station]], the second station of the Shepherd East Line opening up shortly there after. MattKi01 would also finally finish Emberperch Station this month, and would open it alongside ''eybwam''. ''expedtadam'' would start work on a design for Shepherd North Station, slowly building it up over the next month and opening it in mid-October. ''Montenator'' would also open the fourth station on the Akita South Line, [[Vista Station]], at the start of the month.
[[File:AkiNorthOpen.png|thumb|The screenshot at the opening of Akita North Station.]]
The line managers started to set their sights on completing the second stations on each line, to try and get the Ring Line project up and running. Several of these stations started construction, with {{Player|DragonFire441}} completing Caelon Station, serving the [[Caelon|City of Caelon]] and {{Player|Luuna89}} completing the station at the [[Marsh Mechanics]] Akita outpost, The Fire Forge. ''darparniox'' would host a line building session on the Akita North Line, where the line was built up to the site of the second north line station, [[Donkey Station]], which was being built by {{Player|misterblue28}}. ''eybwam'' would also finish a design for the Akita East Lines second station, [[Reservoir Station]], and start building that in survival. ''Skelleton123'' would also continue work on Shepherd West 2, now known as Temple Station, with the upper portion of the station being largely completed and the line marked out between it and Shepherd West Station.
[[File:BurrowOpen.png|left|thumb|Players at the opening of Burrow Station, the last opening of 2022.]]
December rolled around, and ''Montenator'' would host a build session for the line between Vista Station and the fifth station on the Akita South Line, [[Burrow Station]]. The station itself would open up several days after the build session, on the day the server updated to 1.19. ''Ze_Tais'' would reach out to the Line Managers this month, being interested to build the third station on the Akita West Line. The Line Managers were keen on this idea, and also asked if Ze_Tais would be interested in finishing Shepherd South Station, since its designer ''Aeghu'' had since become inactive on the server. ''Ze_Tais'' accepted, and would get to work on the station and line, hosting a build session on Christmas Eve with ''Montenator'' which saw a large part of the viaduct completed. ''Slomo_1994'' would begin work building the third station on the Shepherd East Line, that being Two Lakes Station. This station was located within the greater Leon territory, and would be the final stop on the line before reaching Leon Central Station in the City itself. Alongside building the station, ''Slomo_1994'' would create extensive [[Great Eastern Railway|lore]] for the entire Shepherd East Line.

== Entering 2023 ==
[[File:MegaOpening.png|thumb|Players at Shepherd GCS at the start of the Mega Opening.]]
Impressed by ''Ze_Tais''<nowiki/>' previous work on the SRN in Survival 4 and 5 and well as his enthusiasm for the project, the Line Manager reached out asking if ''Ze_Tais'' would be interested in becoming a line manager, ''Ze_Tais'' would accept, taking over leadership of the Akita West Line. ''Ze_Tais'' would also plan to finish Shepherd South Station prior to moving on to designing Akita West 3.

The month of January would also see several stations whose construction had been ongoing for months finally come to a finish. In total, 5 stations were finished around the same time at the start of February. The first was Donkey Station, to which Akita North Line manager ''darparniox'' scheduled a line opening for on the 5th of February 2023. Over the next few days, Temple Station and Two Lakes Station were officially completed by their line managers. They would also be joined by South Station on Shepherd, as the final details for the track as well as the last interiors were completed. Lastly on the day of the line opening, Akita East Line Manager ''eybwam'' made a huge push to finish of Reservoir Station prior to the opening, and was successful. However, the completion of Reservoir Station was kept a secret prior to the opening, and was announced after the previous 4 stations were opened as a final surprise.
[[File:EmberperchOpen.png|left|thumb|Players at Emberperch during the Mega Opening.]]

The opening on February 5th, now being referred to as a 'mega opening' was also momentous as it was the first time all 7 active line managers were online at the same time, this is always a challenge, as the line manager team straddles a huge range of timezones. In addition to all the line managers, {{Player|marbou9}} a former Line Manager for the South Line on [[Survival 2]] and [[Survival 3|3]], made a special guest appearance for the opening as well. The opening was advertised as an event in the main Discord and drew a huge crowd of about 40 players.

Later on that month, on the 26th of February, the 6th station on the Akita South Line, [[Pavilion Station]] was opened by ''Montenator''. Its completion marked a total of 6 main line stations opening in the same month, which is a record for the SRN. Beating out the previous record of 5 stations which occurred in May 2021.

The [[Cyberdog News Network|CDNN]] would also make a return at the start of 2023, now being managed by {{Player|Txp_}}. For each monthly installment of the CDNN, the SRN Line Managers have created short segments highlighting all the progress on the SRN during that month. These segments generally last around 3 minutes.
[[File:LMCDNN.png|thumb|Line Managers filming a short segment for the CDNN.]]

The month of February would also see progress properly begin on building the SRN HQ at Shepherd Spawn. Since the start of Survival 5, the HQ had been very basic, with a makeshift donations area being set up above ground. A few months into Survival 5 ''Skelleton123'' would create a nice basement area for the SRN, which acted as the main storage area for the network for the best part of a year. However, at the start of the year, ''Skelleton123'' would finish a design for a proper HQ building. Work then began on clearing out the basement storage area which was largely done by ''Slomo_1994'' and ''Ze_Tais.'' The basement was subsequently demolished and filled in, ready for construction on the new HQ building to commence.

== Twilight of Sur 5 ==
As 2023 pushed forward the SRN HQ would finally be completed and opened to the public. It allowed an organized place for Line Managers and other helpers of the network to pick up resources from the basement area, and allowed a single go to drop off point for anyone donating materials. Despite that, the middle of 2023 saw relatively little in the terms of station openings, despite lots of work being done on lots of rail projects on both worlds. [[Tropical Station]] and [[Forgesmith Station]] would open on the Akita and Shepherd South Lines respectively, while Highlands Station, the third station on the Akita North Line, would also open around this time. Work on some larger rail projects persisted, such as the SE section of the Akita Ring Line, and the Akita West Line, would continue to make steady progress.

Outside of the server itself, the SRN had continued to increase co-operation with the CRN. In mid-2023 a special discord server was set up with the SRN Line Managers and many of the senior members of the CRN, to begin talks about hosting a [[Station Competition]]. This competition was planned to promote station building across all worlds and both networks, with the main focus being working on expanding the Ring Lines. Throughout July and August plans were set into motion and the rules, time frames and prizes for the competition were finalised with the help of {{Player|TheWhiteTigerNL}} representing the [[Dogcraft Creative Team|DCT]]. A day before the announcement for the competition was made, a special announcement by {{Player|renthedog}} was released in the Cyberdog Nation Discord Server, stating a policy change to the server resulting in only player over 18 being allowed to play come the start of [[Survival 6]]. As well as the announcement having a severe impact on the current Line Manager Team, the controversy surrounding the announcement, and the assumption that Survival 6 would be coming in the near future, the decision was made to push forward with the competition, despite the drastic drop in the player base almost overnight.

== A Roadblock, a Competition and a Merger ==
The competition would launch and a modest number of people would start building stations over the next month, over that time, attention from the Line Manager Team would turn to completing and connecting the remaining stations on the network. First was the Shepherd South Line, which had seen its third, fourth and fifth stations be delegated to other builders by Montenator, after a successful build session, [[Cape Turtle Station|Cape Turtle]], [[White Thorns Station|White Thorns]] and [[Pinewood Station|Pinewood]] Stations would open up on the 18th of August. After that, attention turned to Akita, with eybwam working with {{Player|strawberrysham}} to finish the third station on the Akita East Line, [[Buddy Holly Station]]. Meanwhile Montenator worked with {{Player|Cardnial_Omega}} and {{Player|bucherwurm31}} to finish the last stretches of line connecting together the SE Section of the Akita Ring Line. Finally Ze_Tais hosted a massive build session to complete the sections of lines between 4 new stations on the Akita West Line, including getting help from {{Player|Kar204}} to copy over a viaduct from Sandbox into the main server. These 10 stations were accompanied by several more branch line stations from {{Player|mrkalaspuff}}, {{Player|ChickenNoodle007}} and {{Player|ReddestKnight}} to complete the roster of stations for a 15 station mega opening on Akita on the 2nd of September. Over on Shepherd, Slomo_1994 and eybwam made a final push to connect [[Leon]] up to the SRN which was successful. In addition to this, eybwam would connect [[Westpoint]], [[Elysian Meadows]] and [[Sunshine Harbour]] up the Leon too, with a change at [[Leon Oldtown Station]]. DragonFire441 would also open Caelon Station alongside the other 5 stations for a final big opening on Shepherd.

The Station Building Competition closed near the end of August and judging commenced in early September, as of writing the results haven't been announced yet, but are expected to be soon. Two of these stations, [[Sunbeam Station]], built by {{Player|SarahPantera100}} & {{Player|Duckyz}} and [[Northeast Station]] built by {{Player|GrumpySalt}}, would be connected up to the main Akita network alongside {{Player|Paulchen007}} 's [[Green Coast Station]], during a build session on the 13th of September. With the opening set to take place next week, it will likely be the final major SRN activity before the closure of Survival 5.

With another announcement by {{Player|Princess223}} on the 1st of September, it gave the time frame for Sur 6's release to be in early to mid October. The previously announced policy changes would also upsettingly result in both Slomo_1994 and Ze_Tais having to step back as Line Managers upon the release of Survival 6, as they would no longer be allowed to play. Over the previous few months, several meeting had taken place with the CRN Leadership about officially merging the two rail networks for Survival 6, citing a unified group would get more work done, and it would reduce confusion in the player base. When it was announced Survival 6 would be on just 2 worlds, the decision to merge made even more sense. This resulted in the remaining line managers, expedtadam, darparniox, Skelleton123, Montenator and eybwam being joined by {{Player|XPModder}}, {{Player|H_Di_Chemici}} and {{Player|Minda905}} from the CRN, to form a full team of 8 for the approaching Survival 6 worlds under the SRN banner. This change was publicly announced by expedtadam on the 9th of September 2023 alongside the announcement that all the transport networks would merge into a single discord (Dogcraft Transport Discord) for the beginning of Survival 6, encouraging even more cross communication and co-operation between the SRN, NTN, CSC and RHN.

The station, designed by {{Player|Txp_}} at the beginning of [[Survival 5]], was placed in an iceberg biome directly south of [[Spawn (Corgi)|spawn]]. After almost a year of no progress {{Player|H_Di_Chemici}} decided to take over Polar Station to continue the South line.

Watermill Station

Eybwam: Made Past Tense

{{Infobox Station|title=Watermill Station|world=Survival 5|sur4subworld=Labrador|network=[[Community Rail Network|CRN]]|line=North Line|opened=August 5th 2023|xcoord=457|builders={{Player|XPModder}}|zcoord=-5085|ntnconnection=North Tunnel|mainlines=1|image=WatermillInfobox.png}}

'''Watermill Station''' was the third North station on the [[Spawn (Labrador)|Labrador]] world of [[Survival 5]] on the [[Dogcraft Server]].

The station was located on a small hill in a swamp biome which bordered a very large snowy biome. This station was the final north station on Labrador.

The station was built by {{Player|XPModder}} at the very beginning of August and it, as well as the line connecting it to [[Olton Hall Station|Olton Hall]], were completed only a few days before the opening of the North-West Quadrant of the ring line was scheduled to happen. As the station was now also finished and connected to the rest of the network, it was decided to also be opened in the same opening together with part of the ring line.

Due to being built in a swamp biome, the station was designed to be built on wooden posts. Due to this, the station could not contain the usual cart-dispenser system, as that would have had to been built under the floor. Therefore, XPModder came up with a completely different minecart system, which was located above the main floor in the attic area of the station.

Further, the relatively small size of the main station building and its many windows did not leave room to facilitate a Nether Portal. To still allow the station to be connected to the NTN, a Nether Portal was constructed outside the station in a way that made it look as if the portal covered the area between two larger oak trees and was being held up by these trees.

{{TransportDiagram North Line (Labrador)}}

In front of the station on the north side, a small rock formation was located which contained a spring. The water from this spring flowed under the station and through the waterwheel, which gave the station its name, over the edge of the hill and down into a lake in the swamp.

During the opening, many people gathered on the waterwheel and some even managed to get slightly trapped inside it.

This was also when and where the Sniffer Rens first gathered and started spreading throughout the server.

Olton Hall Station

[[Olton Hall Station|'''Olton Hall Station''']] was the second [[Community Rail Network|CRN]] station on Labradors North Line. It was located about 3.8 thousand blocks north of spawn on a hill on the [[Labrador]] world of [[Survival 5]]. The station resembled a medieval castle hall, which inspired {{Player|XPModder}} to name it after one of the Hall-class locomotives of the former UK railroad, Great Western Railway. As a fan of Harry Potter, he decided to name the station after the locomotive 'Olton Hall', which was used for filming the Hogwarts Express for the Harry Potter movies.

== Design ==
The station was designed to resemble a medieval castle hall, after inspiration from some image found online. The interior of the station was in large part inspired by a single screenshot from Minecraft found on reddit. While heavily inspired by this image and in parts very close to it, the interior was largely redesigned for its use as a rail station. The exterior of the station, meanwhile, was inspired by a number of images found online after searching for medieval castle builds.

During the design of the station, great care was taken, to make all areas and walkways that are visible from standing inside the station, actually accessible and completely by foot. To achieve this, stairs at either end of the station led up to different walkways and the highest walkways allowed access to the platforms on the towers on either end of the station, as well as the attic.

The station featured six platform for rail lines to connect to. This number was chosen, as at the time of planning of the station, a ring line on Labrador was in discussion and this station would be part of it. Therefore, apart from the two necessary mainline connections, two further connections for the ring line was needed and {{Player|XPModder}} decided to add two additional platforms for potential branch lines.

{{TransportDiagram North Line (Labrador)}}
The station's interior was divided into sections. A small section on each end of the station contained stairs to higher walkways and the Nether Portal which connected the station to the [[Nether Transport Network|NTN]], as well as some ender chests and a log book. The rest of the station contained six sections, each served as the platform for one of the rail lines. The very center of the station had a large map of the surrounding area on the floor. Each of the platforms contained some benches (beds), as well as signs that indicated where this line led, who helped build the line, and welcomed arriving players to the station. A network map of the Labrador CRN was also located at each platform.

During construction of the station, {{Player|Rocksol}} who had a large base nearby, approached {{Player|XPModder}} and offered to build the tunnel connecting the station Nether Portal to the [[Nether Transport Network|NTN]], which was happily accepted by {{Player|XPModder}}.

'''{{ROOTPAGENAME}}''' was the first station Labradors North line of the [[Community Rail Network|CRN]]. Apart from being a rail station, it also had an official [[Road and Horse Network|RHN]] shelter. You can look at the shelter's Wiki page [[Labrador North Station Shelter|here]]. The station was opened as the first ever [[Community Rail Network|CRN]] station on August the 26th 2022.

== Design ==
'''North Station''' was designed to fit in well in the surrounding jungle biome. As such, it was primarily made of jungle wood and planks. Additionally, leaves, vines and glow berries make the station look and feel organic and helped it fit in with the surrounding area. The center of the station was a big custom jungle tree with a 3x3 trunk. This size of trunk was chosen, as in the center of the trunk a beacon is located under the station, providing visitors with its effects. Inside the station, 4 nether portals were located around the trunk, allowing easy access to the [[Nether Transport Network|NTN]] from any direction.

Rail lines entered the station from the 4 cardinal directions. The line coming from spawn arrived on the south side of the station.

Stairs led down to the floor of the forest in the 4 diagonal directions between the tracks. On the ground was a walkway that led around the entire station in a circle and was linked up to the [[Road and Horse Network|RHN]] on the south-western corner of the station.

The [[Labrador North Station Shelter|RHN Shelter]] was located directly west of the station, and consisted of a house that was built directly around the trunk of another jungle tree.

On the west side of the station, a large map of the entire surrounding area was posted.

'''Lakeworks''' was the base of {{Player|Montenator}} on the [[Survival 5]] world of the [[Dogcraft Server]]. The base was on the world of Akita in the south-east, roughly in between [[South Station (Akita)|South Station]] and East Station. The base had very little development.

==About==
The base was built in a 'savannah modern industrial style', which mainly consisted of acacia wood with many greys and whites mixed in. The base consisted of three main islands off the coast of a peninsula in the south-east of Akita. The first island where development took place was called 'Long Island' (a reference to the island in the state of New York of the same name). The other islands included 'Big Island', where the main bulk of the infrastructure will be found, and finally 'Lush Island', where a large port area was planned. Another peninsula south of the archipelago was used as the site of the SRN Station serving the base.

The base was conceptualized as a response to ''Montenator'' wanting to get better at redstone and farming, which he had previously done very little of throughout his previous bases on Dogcraft. Lakeworks plannned to have most buildings serve a function, whether that be to hide a farm or to serve a useful purpose (like a map building). This was in stark contrast to ''Montenator''<nowiki/>'s previous bases, such as [[M-Bay]], which featured largely empty space on its inside.

 

==History==
The area picked out for Lakeworks was first discovered by ''Montenator'' in late March of 2022, with ''Montenator'' abandoning his previous pick for a base location due to it being sandwiched between two other bases close by, which prevented growing room. The area where Lakeworks was located was about 700 blocks further east of the original location.

Progress was had on 'Long Island' with a central storage room and auto smelter building both being built at the base. A small park area was built out front of the main storage building, featuring a nether portal that eventually linked up to the NTN. A small tiered set of manual crop farms and hedgerows made up the rest of this area. There were plans to link Lakeworks up to all major methods of transport on the Dogcraft Server, with it being part of a loop branch line between South and East Station. This line would start at East Station, head down towards Airport Station before arriving at Lakeworks. The line would then lead from Lakeworks to {{Player|Aero_M}}'s town [[Fenswick]], before heading towards {{Player|HatterSkye}}'s base the [[Mojave Swamp]], before terminating at [[South Station (Akita)|South Station]]. Plans to link it to the main East Tunnel of the NTN were also in the works, as well as building road and sea connections to the base, courtesy of the [[Akita Project Group]].

'''Mount Ravenhold Station''' was the second station on the Akita West Line on the [[Survival 5]] [[Survival Railway Network|SRN]]. The station was designed and built by {{Player|AllikatUK}}, and was overseen by the Akita West Line Manager {{Player|Ze_Tais}}. This station resembled a Minecraft castle, and used stone bricks as the main block! The station ended up taking part of the Mega Akita opening on the 2nd of September alongside the other Akita West stations.

== About The Station ==
The original location of west 2 was a few hundred blocks in the eastern direction, but was moved due to technical issues. {{Player|MattKi01}} was originally slated to build the station, and it was originally going to be an themed after an octopus. It was later scrapped due to ''MattKi01'' not having enough time to finish it. The original spot was picked out by the other Akita Line Managers, {{Player|eybwam}}, {{Player|Montenator}}, and {{Player|Darparniox}}. Once Ze_Tais became the Akita West line manager, he scouted a new location surrounded by a marvelous view of an ocean and snowy mountains, which was a big factor into choosing a "Castle Crumbling" theme for the station. Allikat had done a fantastic job with the build, and built the station in just a few days!

The station itself featured an [[Nether Transport Network|NTN]] portal, a [[Tom's Tatties]] stand, and many beds in the watch towers for sleeping and not watching over!! Each of the branch lines/mainlines had decorated tunnels around them that made them unique in their own way! The NTN tunnel itself used similar blocks as the station, thanks to {{Player|HatterSkye}}!!

Ze_Tais went to plan the line coming from [[MOTTO Station|Motto Station]] to this station with the help of {{Player|Kar204}}, {{Player|StenLluk}}, and Montenator. The line leading up to the station was full of curves, circles, circles going upwards, a viaduct, among others. Coming from [[MOTTO Station]], travelled on a track design going over the MOTTO sea and around. Going westwards, travelers were greeted with a tunnel that acted as a transition point to the standard SRN tracks. After this transition, a viaduct, designed in creative by Ze_Tais and {{Player|Mika_Panda}}, beheld itself for a stunning ride above the watery chasm below. This viaduct was copied over by Kar204 mainly, with little help from Ze_Tais!

There was also a CSC port which enabled multi-modal access to the station.

'''MOTTO Station''' was the first station on the Akita West Line on the [[Survival 5]] [[Survival Railway Network|SRN]]. The station was designed and built by {{Player|Ze_Tais}} and construction was overseen by the Akita Line Managers {{Player|darparniox}}, {{Player|Montenator}} and {{Player|eybwam}}. The station broke the tradition of the initial cardinal stations being named after the compass direction they were in, instead taking its name from the player run shopping mall [[MOTTO]], of which the station served. The station opened in a joint opening with [[South Station (Akita)|Akita South Station]] on the 24th of April 2022, making it the first station to open on Survival 5.

 

== About The Station ==
The area for the station was picked out by ''darparniox'' and ''eybwam'' in the first few days of Survival 5. There was largely ocean in the immediate western area of the world, which meant a longer than average length of track would be needed to connect it up to Spawn. The station area was quickly offered up for building on the SRN Discord, with ''Ze_Tais'' offering to design and build the station. The station area picked out was right next to an area where {{Player|StenLluk}} was planning on building a player run shopping district. The decision was made that the station would serve the area, as it proved a convenient way of reaching the shopping area in the absence of player warps and homes during the early days of Survival 5.

The stations construction progressed quickly, with ''Ze_Tais'' getting help from MOTTO co-founder {{Player|Philip98999}} in transferring the station design into survival. With the station progressing, a line building session was organised by the Akita Line Managers to build a viaduct over the spawn sea to connect up the station. ''darparniox'' and ''eybwam'' found an old viaduct design in the Sandbox world that was never used, tweaked it a bit and that end up being used. The viaduct was a dual road and rail crossing, allowing it to be used a part of the [[.Path Network Group|PNG]] for Akita.

{{TransportDiagram West Line (Akita)}}

The station itself consisted of a singular large atrium, with two elevated areas in separate corners where beds were located. A large organically shaped nether portal dominates one wall of the station, which provided [[NTN]] access. On another side of the station, the two main west line terminals were located and on the opposite end, four branch line terminals were found, none of which were used. Another corner of the station had a wall of thanks to all the contributors of the station build. A station logbook was also found nearby, as well as exits out towards the main MOTTO shopping area.

A small boat dock was located at the front of the station as well, which linked up to the [[Connected Seas Coalition|CSC]]. The immediate surrounding of the station was terraformed by ''Ze_Tais'' to match the beachy terrain it was built on.

'''Tropical Station''' was the seventh station on the Akita South Line, part of the [[Survival Railway Network|SRN]] on the [[Survival 5]] world of the [[Dogcraft Server]]. The station was designed and built by Akita South Line Manager {{Player|Montenator}} and was just the third occasion that an SRN main line has reached a total of 7 stations. The station opening to the public on the 2nd of June 2023, alongside the completion of the SRN HQ at Shepherd Spawn.

== About The Station ==

Tropical Station was loosely based on architecture found in the Dutch Caribbean, on islands like Aruba. The station had a bright colour palette that deliberately contrasted the lush green of the jungle surrounds. Built predominantly out of cyan concrete, textured with warped wood, wool and concrete powder, with quartz framing around the main structure. The bright orange roof made out of red sandstone, brick and granite provided another sharp contrast to the blues of the walls. The station itself bore resemblance to [[Seaside Station]], part of the SRN network on Husky.

Tropical Station was an average-sized station on the network, with several spacious rooms and landscaped areas around the station. The main atrium was centered by a palm tree stretching up to the ceiling. The smaller waiting room next to the main atrium also had a central palm tree in it. The station had 2 main line connections and just 2 branch line connections, mainly due to how remote it was. The main atrium also included the [[Nether Transport Network|NTN]] connection as well as network maps and a map of the surrounding area. The waiting room next door had several seating areas and bookshelves, as well as a [[Monty Coffee]] stand. The room was also decorated with various items and banners from old server events, and contained regular station utilities like anvils and ender chests in it.

A staircase located to the side of the waiting room took players upstairs to a large open top landing area. Decorated by two large palm trees and also included some bed benches around the sides. From there, players were able to enter the top room where the majority of the stations beds were located, as well as a journey timetable showing the journey times each station on the Akita South Line was from Tropical. Nearby the station was a [[CSC]] port. It featured the same block palette to the main station, and was an open roofed design bordered by two large towers with conical turrets atop them, with the south line yellow flag waving from each. Standard amenities were found in the CSC port, such as lodestone compass dispensers and boat chests etc. On the other side of the area, a small grove of palm trees were found at the beach. A large bonfire was located in the center of the grove with several small benches scattered around the bonfire.

{{TransportDiagram South Line (Akita)}}
During the opening another of {{Player|Wanderer_06}}'s pigs, Mr Piggo, tragically passed away after being pushed off the station roof by {{Player|Ze_Tais}}. A small funeral was held and a grave stone was made in the station grounds. Player {{Player|CardnialOmega}} ended up being buried alongside Mr Piggo, due to being in the wrong place at the wrong time.

Pavilion Station

Eybwam: Made Past Tense

{{Infobox Station|title=Pavilion Station|world=Survival 5|subworld=Akita|image=PavInfobox.png|network=[[Survival Railway Network (Survival 5)]]|line=Akita South Line|opened=26th February 2023|builders={{Player|Montenator}}|xcoord=520|ycoord=70|zcoord=8300|ntnconnection=Akita South Tunnel|mainlines=1|branchlines=0}}

'''Pavilion Station''' was the sixth station on the Akita South Line on the [[Survival 5]] world on the [[Dogcraft Server]]. The station was built by Akita South Line Manager {{Player|Montenator}} and opened to the public in a line opening on the 26th of February 2023.

== About The Station ==

Design work for the sixth south line station began a few days after the fifth south line station, [[Burrow Station]], was opened. The working design was quite ambitious, with the working name for the station being known as [[Greysands Station]]. However, after a few weeks of on and off designing on the Sandbox world, Montenator was still not happy with how the station looked, and therefore decided to put the design on hold and work on a new, slightly safer design. This design was built up in a couple of days, and would eventually become Pavilion Station. The design takes inspiration from the [[wikipedia:Baxter_Park|Baxter Park Pavilion]] in Dundee, Scotland.

The station featured a very warm block palette, suited to its location in a savannah biome. This block palette was mainly comprised of wood and sandstone, with grey stained glass being used for many of the stations windows. The main station building was a relatively small, slender building, but contained all the necessary amenities a station needed, with two main line connections being located at either end of the building, and branch line connections dotted about in between. There were also water elevators that took players up the the rooftop, where more beds as well as trident take off points and a map of the area were found.

The front of the station featured a tiered seating area and flowerbed, followed by a lawn that the main path cut through, leading to the station's [[Connected Seas Coalition|CSC]] port at the riverside, simply named Pavilion Port. At the back of the station was another garden area, with 2 symmetrical ponds at either side of the path, with small trees and flowers adding interest across the grassy area. The centerpiece of this garden was the structure that housed the NTN nether portal, which connected the station to the Akita South NTN Tunnel, via a custom nether tunnel that {{Player|HatterSkye}} built.

The line connecting Burrow Station to Pavilion Station was the longest stretch on the Akita South Line, and passed through many biomes. It was predominantly built by ''Montenator'' but {{Player|Elednor89}} and {{Player|FinnMcCoul}} helped placing rails to finish off the line.

Burrow Station

'''Burrow Station''' was the fifth station on the Akita South Line on the [[Survival 5]] world of the [[Dogcraft Server]]. The station was designed and built by Akita South Line manager, {{Player|Montenator}}. The station took around 2 and a half months to design and build, and was later opened up to the public on December 3rd 2022, 2 weeks after a line building session that saw the stretch of line between it and [[Vista Station]] completed.

== About The Station ==
The idea for an animal burrow station dated back all the way to June 2021, with ''Montenator'' initially wanting to design a station with that theme as the 5th station on the Beagle South Line, in a mega taiga south of [[Nova Station]]. However when the distance was measured, it was clear the line would be far to short between the stations, so a new spot was picked in a birch forest further south which eventually became [[Machair Station]]. Since then, the idea was shelved by ''Montenator'' until a suitable biome could be found to properly do the theme justice.

The station itself was relatively small, with the main station area being located underground, beneath the main mound. Main line and branch line terminals were located in this main atrium of the station, which was heavily textured with various brown blocks, and featured a heavy usage of foliage, such as leaves, lichen and glowberries. A small winding staircase allowed pedestrian access from the outside down the the main atrium, with the [[Nether Transport Network|NTN]] portal being located nearby. Several other functional features were found in this room, including network maps, ender chests, crafting tables and a station visitor book.

A small passageway led to another smaller room off the main atrium. This was where beds and other more general station amenities were located. A large map of the surrounding area took up the central portion of this room, and the walls were decorated with various banners ''Montenator'' had collected from attending various [[Community Rail Network|CRN]] line openings. A nice reference to the [[Survival Railway Network|SRN]]'s sister network on Labrador and Corgi.

{{TransportDiagram South Line (Akita)}}
Turning to the exterior of the station, perhaps the most striking feature was the giant fox that stood atop a hillside overlooking the entire area. The fox has since been named 'Wilde', courtesy of {{Player|eybwam}}. Wilde's design was adapted from an existing design by {{Player|CraftyFoxe}}, with the block palette being altered to match the more rustic themes of the station and the dimension being altered to reduce the size and height slightly. In a similar fashion to Petal Ranch Station on the Beagle South Line, the approach to the station saw the line snake its way through small farm patches, including a pumpkin patch, a beet patch and a fernery. About a minute before arriving at Burrow Station, the line crossed a large lake. A large stone bridge was built over the lake for the line to travel across, which was inspired off of the Connel Bridge near Oban, in Scotland.

Vista Station

'''Vista Station''' was the fourth station on the Akita South Line on [[Survival 5]] of the [[Dogcraft Server]]. The station was designed and built by Akita South Line Manager {{Player|Montenator}} and opened to the public on the 1st of October 2022. The station was the first fourth station on a line built in Survival 5.

== About The Station ==
As the name would suggest, Vista Station boasted impressive views of the surrounding snowy tundra, due to its position atop a large mountain. This mountain necessitated heavy terraforming in order to fit the station build. Even after this, extra land had to be built out to fit the station. As a result, a large piece of land jutted out from the mountain unnaturally. To remedy this, ''Montenator'' proposed building a cliff face underneath it, and delegated the job through the Open Tasks channel on the SRN Discord. The cliff would end up being a team effort between {{Player|starr274}} and {{Player|GracessNella}}, with ''starr274'' building the shape of the cliff, while ''GracessNella'' worked on landscaping and blending it in better with the surrounding terrain.

The station itself was inspired off of rustic-modern style ski lodges found in the Alpine regions of Europe. The building was built atop a stone foundation, with lots of glass integrated into the design, that allowed for natural light to access the interior spaces. The roof had several large overhangs that cover the two large balconies of the station, where players were able to view the surroundings. On the western end of the station, a stone tower rose above rest of the building, providing a good place for elytra users to take-off from.

The interior space of the station was split into three main rooms, the first room being the main line terminal room. In addition to housing the two South Line connections, this room also had the main entrance of the station, at the bottom of the large bay window. Other facilities in this room included elytra tower access, as well as general utilities and a station logbook. At the very far end of the room was a small [[Monty Coffee]] stall, staffed by one of {{Player|Wanderer_06}}'s pigs.

Continuing directly forward when entering via the main entrance, a smaller room housing the area map was found. This room has two smaller off-shoots that led to a sleeping area and a nether portal with [[NTN]] access, respectively. The final room contained the station's four branch line terminals as well as a large departure board telling players the journey times to all the Akita South Line stations from Vista Station. SRN network maps were also located nearby all minecart terminals.

'''Moor Station''' was the third station on the Akita South Line on Survival 5. The station served the eastern side of the group settlement of [[Flowercliffe]], and was designed and built by Akita South Line Manager, {{Player|Montenator}}. The station opened in a double opening alongside [[Electric Grove Station]] on the 10th of August 2022.

== Construction ==
Moor Station was initially designed alongside [[South Station (Akita)|South Station]] in the twilight months of [[Survival 4]], in preparation for [[Survival 5]]. When ''Montenator'' found a suitable location that fit the theme of the station, it was transferred into survival from the Sandbox world. {{Player|N1cM4tth3w63}} designed the interior of the station, and went for a rustic, homely feel to match the style of the exterior.

== Design ==
{{TransportDiagram South Line (Akita)}}
Moor Station was primarily made up of calcite, with a brick foundation. The roof contrasted the walls by using deepslate brick stairs, that allowed it to really stand out from afar. Several chimneys scattered the roof of the station, with cobwebs used to give the classic smoke effect. The main station building was built atop a large wooden platform, that wrapped around the front of the station. On the northern end of the building, a canopy covered the station's branch line terminals, of which it had 5. The main platforms were decorated with planters filed with colorful flowers, emphasizing that the settlement of Flowercliffe was located nearby. The two main line terminals were located on the southern end of the station, one led northwards towards Electric Grove Station, while the other led southwards towards a future South 4 Station.

The interior had two levels, the upper one contained plenty of beds for weary travelers to rest, as well as a nether portal connected to the [[NTN]]. The lower level contained several quaint waiting areas, backed by walls of foliage. A small kitchen area was found at the northern end of the station, while a map of the surrounding area was located in one of the entranceways to the station. Corridors also took players back towards the main line terminals, or out the front or back of the station. Station amenities such as ender chests, crafting table and a station log book were found in the main atrium.

A decorative track ran alongside the front of the station, the actual minecart track ran along the center of this making for a cool approach to the station. A small signal box was found on the other side of these tracks. It was off-limits to the public, and served as a storage area and base of operations for future expansions of the South Line. Out the back of the station, there was a 4-way crossroad that eventually was the site of a [[PNG]] shelter. This crossroad took the player towards Flowerlciffe, Upton and Spawn as well as it led further south towards the 4th South Station.

Electric Grove Station

'''Electric Grove Station''' was the second station on the Akita South Line on the [[Survival 5]] world of the [[Dogcraft|Dogcraft Server.]] The station was designed and built by {{Player|NeoFiore}}, after the location was offered up for building by Akita South Line Manager {{Player|Montenator}}, on the SRN/NTN Discord Server. The station opened in a joint opening with [[Moor Station]] on the 10th of August 2022. Electric Grove served as a station on the Akita Ring Line, which ran around the greater spawn area of Akita, intersecting the four cardinal lines at their second stations.

== Construction ==
Initially, Moor Station was the intended design for the second station of the Akita South Line. However, after scouting out the terrain, Montenator noticed the south of Akita consisted largely of a giant ocean, with the nearest land suitable for Moor Station to be built on well over 2000 blocks away from [[South Station (Akita)|South Station]]. It was decided that instead of having one longer than average line between South Station and Moor Station, an intermediate station would be built, creating two shorter than average lines. Due to the lack of land in the ocean, the station was built on a small group of islets, just off the coast of {{Player|Kronolak}}'s base. The station side was put of for taking on the SRN Discord, with ''NeoFiore'' volunteering to build the station.

== Design ==
{{TransportDiagram South Line (Akita)}}
The station took the form of a mangrove, with various shacks and buildings nestled within the canopy. This style was inspired from the treehouse in the 1960 film, 'The Swiss Family Robinson'. The station also served as the center of ''NeoFiore's'' new redstone college, hence the giant redstone core at the center of the station. The station had all the standard station features, with crafting tables, ender chests, network maps and a map of the surrounding area. Beds were found through taking a small walkway to a shack at the top of the mangrove, while [[NTN]] connections were located on the islet beneath the station, nestled into the trunk of the trees. Next to the nether portal was a small boat dock which connected up to the wider [[CSC]] network.

The station contained two main line connections, one northbound towards South Station, while the other led southbound towards Moor Station. In addition to this, two other terminals provided connections to the future Akita Ring Line, with Electric Grove Station being the converging point between the Akita Ring Line and the Akita South Line. The station also had a small minor line terminal upon request of ''Kronolak'' which planned to connect up his nearby base with the station.

'''South Station''' was a station on the [[Survival 5]] Akita world of the [[Dogcraft Server]]. It was the first stop on the Akita South Line, that opened to the public on the 24th of April 2022 in a joint opening with [[MOTTO Station]]. This made both these stations the first to be opened on the Survival 5 SRN network. The station was designed and built by Akita South Line Manager, {{Player|Montenator}}.

== Construction ==
South Station began its construction during the first day of Survival 5, with a location being picked out by ''Montenator'' and the initial foundations being laid out. The design for the station was pre-built several months prior in anticipation for the release of Survival 5. The design built was meant to fit fairly well with most biomes, although the swamp chosen ended up being the ideal fit for the darker palette of the station. The station consisted of three circular platforms, interlinked with open walkways. One of these platforms held both main line terminals, with a small staircase taking players down to a central courtyard where the [[Nether Transport Network|NTN]] portal was located.

== Design ==
{{TransportDiagram South Line (Akita)}}
The station had three branch line terminals as well. One of which was built. This branch line took players from South Station towards the base of {{Player|HatterSkye}}, before continuing onto {{Player|Aero_M}}'s town of [[Fenswick]]. After that, the line headed towards ''Montenator''<nowiki/>'s personal base [[Lakeworks]], before it looped back towards [[Airport Station|Highland Heights Station]], built by {{Player|ReddestKnight}} that was connected to Akita's East Station.

The main atrium of the station contained a sunken area where general station facilities were found, which included a lectern for documenting your visit. In the center of the atrium was a bubble-vator which took players up to the top of the station, pro<nowiki/>viding good views of the area as well as a good elytra take-off point. A map of the surrounding area was also found in the central atrium.

Alongside the station there was a large [[.Path Network Group|PNG]] stable area for horses. There were various roads around the station that eventually connected the station up to various bases and towns around Akita. In May 2022, an extension to the station was built to house a port connection for the [[CSC]]. This involved creating a large sprawling walkway over the swamp, connecting to a sandbar which bordered the southern sea, that allowed for convenient connections to Spawn as well as connections further south to Upton or [[Flowercliffe]].

<blockquote>Dear reader, I wish I could tell you that I made this all up: but an entire town was lost to a bottle of water.
 
''-Excerpt from a traveler's journal''</blockquote>

'''Reservoir Station''' was the second station on the Akita East Line on the [[Survival 5]] world of the [[Dogcraft Server]]. The station was designed and built by Akita East Line manager, {{Player|eybwam}}. It was unfolded on the 4th of February 2023, during a Mega Opening event, alongside Donkey Station, Temple Station, Two Lakes Station, and Shepherd South Station. Reservoir served the '''Akita Ring Line'''.

==Design==
A drastically different building designed during the waning end of [[Survival 4]] was originally slated by ''eybwam'' to be constructed for Akita's second East Station. However, the initial concept proved to be incompatible with the surveyed location and future plans for the ''Ring Line—''a chain of railways encircling Akita's spawn area, intersecting the four cardinal lines on their second main stations.<gallery mode="nolines" widths="250" perrow="2" caption="Aerial, long shot views of the station">
File:ReservoirSV1.png
File:ReservoirSV2.png
</gallery>

Assuming an industrial complex design, Reservoir drew hints of inspiration from a point of interest constructed by {{Player|Slomo_1994}} on a section of line between [[Hub Station]] and [[Meridian Station]] on [[Survival 4]] (coordinates: x: 8180, z: -415).
[[File:ReservoirNA.png|left|thumb|297x297px|The felled water tower can be discerned behind the signboard.]]
Reservoir prominently featured an old, brick-laden factory building on a sprawling and overgrown lot, that heralded the building's past. Some of the original pieces of machinery were left intact or otherwise refurbished. A felled and derelict water tower was spotted on the south end of the site. Moreover, two giant steel tanks stood scatheless on the north end.

Inside, the factory building was retrofitted to provide all ancillary features: with crafting tables, ender chests, stonecutters, among others. Network maps were posted onto the sides of crates on pallets. On the floor was a map of the surrounding area. Beds were shelved onto storage racks. Recessed into its eastern wall was a portal for [[Nether Transport Network|NTN]] connection. Elytra platforms were set up atop two chimneys towering over the site, and were accessed via bubble elevators on both sides of the portal.
[[File:ReservoirRHN.png|left|thumb|''Reservoir's RHN stables can accommodate up to 24 horses.'']]
Forklifts built by {{Player|TheWhiteTigerNL}} were added to what was once the factory's loading bays''—''now converted into stables for the [[Road and Horse Network|RHN]].
[[File:ReservoirFV.png|thumb|''Front view of the CSC port with the straddle carrier on the righthand side.'']]
A covered walkway connected the factory building to the [[Connected Seas Coalition|CSC]] port. The port assumed the silhouette of a dry bulk storage bay usually seen at construction sites. A branch of [[Monty Coffee]] was requested to serve the stop. Four boat dispensers found on the docks below were utilized to navigate the lake and river. Adjacent the port was a straddle carrier that propped up a watercraft designed by ''eybwam''. The port, however, never saw an official opening.

The Station served two main line connections: one eastbound towards East 3, and westbound to [[Ember Perch Station]]. Additionally, the station had provisions for an additional 4 branch or ring line connections.

'''Highlands Station''' was the third station of the [[SRN]] Akita North Line, continuing from [[Donkey Station]].

==About==
Highlands Station took its name from the elevated savanna biome it occupies - the station floor is at y level 123. The area was largely unpopulated in terms of players, but had a nearby raid tower and village. The station had a platform level and [[NTN]] portal and stables outside on the stone verandah. On the second level were station offices and at the top of the staircase on the small third level was an elytra jump.

The line to the station featured an underwater tunnel that reached the coast around 650 blocks from the station. From this point, the line did not descend at any point, culminating in the Highlands Suspension bridge which was 105 blocks long and traverses a 60 block deep ravine.

==History==
{{player|JarrydG_ZA}} designed and built the station in April 2024. Once the line was completed later, the station was opened on the17th of June, 2023.

'''Donkey Station''' was the second station on North Line of Survival 5's Akita world. It followed on from [[North Station (Akita)|North Station]] and led to [[Highlands Station]].

==About==
Donkey Station was a relatively basic station in layout - the main line platform sat above the station floor, where amenities and a [[NTN]] portal were present. Outside of the station was a windmill and stable and paths connected the features. The area used a crimson, dark wood, and stone palette for the most part.

==History==
The station location was scouted within the first week of the new world. At the site, a drove of donkeys were present, hence the name of the station. After the opening of [[North Station (Akita)|North Station]], Donkey station was designed by {{player|misterblue28}} in September 2022. By December, the main building was mostly complete and the paths, windmill, and stable were gradually added by {{player|darparniox}} through until January for opening.

The station was the catalyst for and part of the five station 'mega opening' event by the [[SRN]] held on the 5th of February 2023.

'''North Station''' was a station on the [[Survival 5]] world of the [[Dogcraft Server]]. Situated around 800 blocks north of the [[Spawn (Akita)|Akita Spawn Island]], North Station was the first stop on the [[Survival Railway Network]]'s North Line of Akita.

==About==
The station was located at the first coastline north of Spawn in order to provide the quickest possible stop for travelers simply seeking land. In a jungle biome, the station was straightforward in layout, a wide main platform for SRN lines and an [[Nether Transport Network|NTN]] portal on the hillside and branch line terminals on the coast side. Down a staircase was an exit by foot area, and further down built into the cliff wall was a [[Connected Seas Coalition]] port. The station palette was predominantly wooden with some stone and sandstone.

==History==
The station site was set up on the 18th of March, the first day of Survival 5, in anticipation that the absence of homes would result in more players basing near to Spawn. On the 11th of April, a bridge across the ocean was built by a team of around 10 players that connected Spawn to the northern continent and the North Station site. However, it was not until late June that the main platform was designed by {{player|darparniox}} and built with help from {{player|Ze_Tais}} and {{player|starr274}} and the station functional in rail and NTN terms.

Because of a planned absence from the server on the part of North Line Manager {{player|darparniox}}, progress on the station stalled entirely until late August. The branch lines and port areas were completed in time for an opening on the 19th of September.

In May 2023, a branch line from North Station to {{player|Duckyz}} & {{player|SarahPantera100}}'s base Sunken Mansion was built.

'''Temple Station''' was the second station for the [[Survival Railway Network|SRN]] West-Line on the Shepherd world of [[Survival 5]]. The station was situated on a cliff and inspired by a Buddhist Temple. The station had enough platforms to provide branch connections and more official lines.

==Design & Location==
Temple Station was located on the edge of a cliff. The design was inspired by a Buddhist temple design and transformed to fit the SRN station requirements. The station was completely built up from diorite and other white blocks for texturing. Accented with spruce wood and a spruce roofs.
Down in the basement, the cave that housed the branch line platforms was completely dug out by hand and was textured with cobble and andesite stones that gave it a more rustic look.

In one of the towers, a small RHN stop was housed. The central courtyard also provided space for some horses to take a rest.

==Station Facilities==
{{TransportDiagram West Line (Shepherd)}}
The station provided all the required SRN amenities. It had multiple crafting tables, enderchests, beds to take a rest, a map of the surrounding area, and a Nether portal connecting to the [[Nether Transport Network|NTN]] high up in a temple tower. One of the towers had a flat roof, easy for elytra landing or take off!

The [[Road and Horse Network|RHN]] Shelter had 2 beds for tired horse travelers, a guestbook and also housed a small [[Monty Coffee]] Shop for all your coffee needs.

==History==

The station build was started at the start of the 2022 summer. It took almost halve a year due to IRL circumstances, but the station was finished just in time for the Quintuple opening of stations on February 4th 2023! In the week leading up to the opening, the line from West to Temple was built during a build session.

'''West Station''', the traditional name for the first [[Survival Railway Network (Survival 5)|SRN]] station West of Spawn, was the first connection on the [[Survival 5]] - Shepherd West-Line and the first station to open on the Shepherd world.

==Design & Location==
West Station was located pretty close to spawn compared to traditional distances between stations. It was a little bit over 1000 blocks from spawn, making it a short journey to the station. The station sat on a landscaped platform in front of a small mountain. The station was inspired by a real life station, the train station of [[wikipedia:Aalst,_Belgium|Aalst - East Flanders, Belgium]]. The main block pallet for the station consisted of Granite, Andesite, Stone and Bricks, with Dark Oak for roofing and flooring. The station platform sat separately on a higher level from the actual station building to create more depth to the build.

==Station Facilities==
{{TransportDiagram West Line (Shepherd)}}
The station had everything a traveler was looking for. On the platform you found some benches to have some rest, but inside the station building it had a room full of beds on the first floor for those who need some sleep. A ladder took you up to the tower, from where people jumped off to spread their wings. Down below on the ground level was a map, enderchest, crafting bench, anvil and stone cutter for people to use. A portal to the [[NTN]] was also provided at the center of the building.

With the station being so close to spawn, it was decided not to provide branch lines. To offer people a way to make an easy connection to the station, a large RHN stable and rest stop were integrated into the design. Thanks to {{Player|TyrantrumGOD}}, a first network of the RHN was already created West-bound of the station.

==History==

The Station build was started within a month of the server launching. {{Player|Skelleton123}} however underestimated the amount of work it would take to finish the station and had to re-evaluate the amount of time it would take to finish. In the end it took about 6 weeks to gather all the blocks and build up the station and it's surroundings.
On May 12th a building session was organised to finish off the track towards spawn. 5 Hours were provided to put in the track, it took the present helpers only 51 minutes to actually complete the work. Another bad calculation on Skelleton's side. Big thanks to {{Player|Chickzie}}, {{Player|Mika_Panda}}, {{Player|Wanderer_06}}, {{Player|Eybwam3}} and {{Player|Montenator}} for their help on finishing the track so fast!

'''Pinewood Station''' was the fifth station on the Shepherd South Line on [[Survival 5]]. The station was designed and built by {{Player|AdamB4255}} and was opened to the public on the 18th of August 2023 in a joint opening alongside the third and fourth stations on the Shepherd South Line, [[Cape Turtle Station|Cape Turtle]] and [[White Thorns Station|White Thorns]] respectively. Pinewood was the terminal destination of the Shepherd South Line.

== About The Station ==
The station location was picked out by {{Player|Montenator}} after AdamB4255 approached him looking to build another SRN station. The station itself was built in a modern rustic style, modelled off of a Swiss style ski lodge. The station sat amidst a taiga biome on the banks of a large lake. The station was largely built from spruce variants and a combination of stone bricks, cobblestone and andesite. The gently inclining roof was broken up by several large chimneys equipped with hidden campfires to give the illusion of smoke.

The inside was decorated in a very detailed manor. The room housing the NTN portal was decorated with several colourful mosaics along the wall, as well as having tables and a fish tank inside. The main room included beds and utilities including a food dispenser, this room also included the main entrance to the station, and would have included the terminal for a main line further southwards had it been built. The room at the southern end of the station featured a comfortable lounge area with great views out to the lakeside and surrounding coniferous forest.

White Thorns Station

Eybwam: Made Past Tense

{{Infobox Station|title=White Thorns Station|world=Survival 5|subworld=Shepherd|image=WhiteThornsInfobox.png|network=[[Survival Railway Network (Survival 5)]]|line=Shepherd South Line|opened=August 18th 2023|builders={{Player|Elasmotherium1}}|xcoord=-5|zcoord=6800|ntnconnection=None as of now|mainlines=2|branchlines=0}}

'''White Thorns Station''' was the fourth station on the Shepherd South Line on [[Survival 5]]. The station was designed and built by {{Player|Elasmotherium1}} and was opened to the public on the 18th of August 2023, in a joint opening with the third and fifth stations on the Shepherd South Line, [[Cape Turtle Station]] and [[Pinewood Station]] respectively.

== About The Station ==

The station location was picked out by {{Player|Montenator}}, after ''Elasmotherium1'' expressed interest in building an SRN station. The station was situated in a mega taiga biome on the end of a large peninsula, overlooking another large ocean. It was unique from many other stations as verticality played a big role in the design of the station, as it had a small surface area with a height of over 80 blocks. The main building was sat upon a rocky formation, with a gradient made from blocks such as diorite, wool, calcite, clay and concrete powder. A large spire rose above the rest of the building with a large array of lamps near its top. This spire, accompanied by the slightly smaller spire in the main building and the one in the adjacent bell tower gave the station its name, with the spikey spires being similar to 'thorns'. Stripped spruce wood provided the framework for the build with the turrets and roofs being made with a combination of deepslate and blackstone.

Two large viaducts connected the rail line to the main building, while the other acted as a footpath between the bell tower and main building. The rail line heading to Pinewood Station featured a seldom-used drop to leave the station, and a spiraling track tower to get back up, in a similar fashion to the system used in [[Tower Station]] which was built by {{Player|Mrs_Diss}}. The surrounding area was decorated with many custom pine trees, with meandering dirt path that connected the various buildings in the area. Down by the waters edge, Sleepy Thorns Port can be found. This connected the whole station up with the [[Connected Seas Coalition|CSC]], allowing for an interchange between both transport networks. The port itself was hung across the sea facing cliff, with basic utilities like beds and maps found inside.

In the lower floor of the main building, a large 2 floored atrium housed beds and the stations [[Nether Transport Network|NTN]] portal. A custom fountain using tipped arrows to give a bubble effect was also found in this room. Bubble-vators allowed players to travel upwards to the top floor, where both main line connections can be found, as well as network maps and basic utilities. Taking the stairway down a floor brought the player to a large [[Monty Coffee]] branch, with the whole floor decorated in tables and chairs and serving various warm beverages.
{{TransportDiagram South Line (Shepherd)}}

== Stick Sacrifice ==

The final building in the area was a large calcite/diorite pedestal, where pixel art of two intertwined sticks was built above it. This was the venue of ''Elasmotherium1''<nowiki/>'s Stick Sacrifice game. The premise of the game was that those wanting to sign up pick one of the chests and edit the sign to have their name on it. Whenever the player makes a chat fail in game, for example, forgetting a / before a command, accidentally sending a private message in global chat, or forgetting to turn off caps lock to name a few, the player must come over to the Stick Sacrifice area and place a stick in their chest. Whoever had the least sticks in their chest by the end of Survival 5 was declared the winner. The area can be accessed using '''/phome Stick Sacrifice'''.

{{TransportDiagram South Line (Shepherd)}}

'''Cape Turtle Station''' was the third station on the Shepherd South Line on [[Survival 5]]. The station was designed and built by {{Player|AllikatUK}} after the area was opened for building by {{Player|Montenator}}. Initially, the task of building the station was taken up by {{Player|H_Di_Chemici}}, but due to other commitments on the server he was not able to finish the project. The station opened to the public alongside the fourth and fifth stations on the Shepherd South Line, in an opening that took place on the 18th of August 2023.

== About The Station ==

The station was designed to blend in with it's surroundings, and consists of a large natural arch over a canal where the rail terminals and a [[Connected Seas Coalition|CSC]] port was located. The top of the arch was decorated in plants, trees and foliage which again blended it in nicely with the surrounding forest. The station itself was located at the end of a long peninsula. Nearby the base of {{Player|ArtfulBandit}}, a birch bridge took players over to the other side of the canal where a beach was found with lots of turtles on it. Back at the other end of the bridge, a small staircase provided an exit from the station.

On the rail terminal side of the station, two smaller rooms can be found. One of these rooms housed a nether portal for connecting to the [[Nether Transport Network|NTN]], while the other contained beds and other basic utilities. The station contained two rail connections, one heading north to [[Forgesmith Station]], while the other headed south towards [[White Thorns Station]]. The inside of the arch was also decorated with glowberries and leaves that gave an overgrown feel to the station.

Forgesmith Station

{{Infobox Station|world=Survival 5|subworld=Shepherd|image=FSInfobox.png|caption=Forgesmith shortly before opening.|network=[[Survival Railway Network (Survival 5)]]|line=Shepherd South Line|opened=9th April 2023|builders={{Player|AdamB4255}}|xcoord=240|zcoord=3425|ntnconnection=Shepherd South Tunnel|mainlines=1|branchlines=0}}

'''Forgesmith Station''' was the second station on the Shepherd South Line on [[Survival 5]]. The station was designed and built by {{Player|AdamB4255}}, while the construction of the line connecting the station was managed by {{Player|Montenator}}. The station was featured as part of the future Shepherd Ring Line, but was never able to make connections heading east and west, as well as south. The station was opened to the public on the 9th of April 2023, after a line building session was held the day prior to complete the line connecting it to [[South Station (Shepherd)|Shepherd South Station]].

== About The Station ==

Looking to build another SRN station, ''AdamB4255'' approached ''Montenator'' looking for a potential area to build one. At this point the Shepherd South Line was significantly underdeveloped compared to the other SRN main lines, but had recently started making progress again as {{Player|Ze_Tais}} began finishing South Station. To get the line properly back on track, the plot of land for South 2 was offered up to ''AdamB4255'', and he quickly got to work creating a design for the station.

The area in question was a fairly blank canvas, being a beach at the edge of a forest. Forgesmith Station was designed to resemble a semi-industrial printing studio, with decorative machines that operated inside the station. The main station building was clean and functional and built mainly out of brick and granite with stripped oak as the framework. Copper and warped wood were used as an accent for the windows, and sandstone made up the gently curved roof. The most striking feature of the station was the small smoke stack that towers above the rest of the building, in a similar fashion to [[Reservoir Station]] on Akita.

Another small building with a similar block palette was located nearby, that featured more beds and [[Nether Transport Network|NTN]] access, as well as a small [[Monty Coffee]] stall. A small seating area was located just outside this building, overlooking the ocean to the southwest. Further decoration in the area involved two delivery trucks dropping of supplies to the factory, as well as old crates strewn about the area. A few dirt paths interlink the two main buildings, with another heading down to the beach that was lined with a few palm tress and a pond housing several blue axolotls. The station was also connected to the [[Road and Horse Network|RHN]] via a road built by {{Player|starr274}}.

'''South station''' was the first station on the Shepherd South Line on [[Survival 5]] world. The station was first started by former Line Manager {{Player|Aeghu}}, but to be taken later by {{Player|Ze_Tais}} to finish the station. The station took around a year to be fully constructed, but would see great progress around the end of 2022, and the start of 2023. The station was opened on the 4th of February among four other stations.

== About ==
The station saw great progress within the first few months when Survival 5 started, but was left without any progress for a lot of months until November 2022 when Ze_Tais would take on the task of finishing South station. The main structure was mainly constructed by Aeghu, but only saw slight modifications for the middle part. Being the addition of new pillars, and more support for the roof. The interior was designed by {{Player|TheWhiteTigerNL}}, {{Player|Montenator}}, and Ze_Tais. TheWhiteTigerNL constructed the RHN room, and Montenator constructed the [[Monty Coffee|Monty Café]].

== History ==
{{TransportDiagram South Line (Shepherd)}}
After a few successful build sessions, the line going from Grand Central Station (GCS) to South station saw completion. (See List for builders in the table below, and gallery). The line passed by the [[Road and Horse Network|RHN]] Shepherd Headquarters, and {{Player|HatterSkye}}'s desert base.

The station saw major changes to the surroundings with more foliage added and a few terraforming. The station also had a frog statue, built by {{Player|NeoFiore}}, which represented the 1.19 update.

Leon Central Station

{{TransportDiagram East Line (Shepherd)}}

'''{{ROOTPAGENAME}}''' was the fourth and terminal station on the Shepherd East line on [[Survival 5]]. The station served the [[Leon|Regency of Leon]]. It offered accommodations for a branch line to West Point, as well as provisions for four additional connections to form the Leon Metro. Leon Central Station opened to the public on the 10th of September 2023, as part of a Mega Opening that saw five other stations open.

==Construction==
During the latter half of [[Survival 4]], long before any concrete plans of founding a City were made, a prestigious and self-advertising structure was intended to serve a small settlement of the would-be City Planners {{Player|ashapink}}, {{Player|eybwam}}, {{Player|strawberrysham}}, and {{Player|zacattack2097}} of Leon. The [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gare%20du%20Nord Gare Du Nord], with its Beaux-Arts architecture, seemed to fit this criteria. So, the exterior of the structure was modelled after it. The purpose of the structure remained aesthetic and would only be designated to serve as an SRN station upon receipt of a reset.

Work on Leon Central began immediately following Survival 5's launch. It would be constructed in the center of the scouted location of the newly-founded city of Leon. The main structure would see completion a month later. Work on the underground continued for another five months. An operational-level status would be achieved less than a year later.

==Design==
Sandstone and stripped birch made up Leon Central's façade. Soaring windows enveloped the exterior and accented it with an iconic blue-green patina. Behind its monumental façade was an enormous central hall draped with chandeliers. A span of dark prismarine roof was supported by a number of sandstone pillars. The floor was intricately patterned and colored after Leon's flag. In the center of the hall was a large map of Leon's territory. There were provisions for stalls — a branch of [[Monty Coffee]], {{Player|Mika_panda}}'s Cookies, and a newspaper shop run by {{Player|StenLluk}}. A truck full of early-game gear was also parked on this hall.

Initially, the station was intended to only be a single-story structure with a flat and level access between train platforms. However, the frenetic expansion of Downtown Leon and the surrounding districts made it less workable for a surface track connection. Thus, an underground level was carved out for a modern subway interior. The [[Nether Transport Network|NTN]] connection was recessed on the north wall of this level. Glass screens lined the sides of the platform, and trains, based on CraftyFoxe's design, were parked on either side. The actual minecart track ran along inside of these trains, that made for a memorable approach to the station. Ancillary amenities such as crafting tables, enderchests, station and area maps were found in front of the platform screen doors.

'''{{ROOTPAGENAME}}''' was the third station on the [[Shepherd]] East Line, on Survivial 5. It formed part of the [[Survival Railway Network|SRN]] network.
==About==
The station aimed to reflect a rural area, with pleasant surroundings, a nice canal - oh, and a massive mining complex! The station was located within the bounds of the [[Leon]] claim, and may in the future form part of the Leon metro project. Currently, the station reflected its rural origins quite well! The station linked two small lakes together through a small canal, however, at the time of writing, the station did not have a [[Connected Seas Coalition|CSC]] port. The station had a small set of stables, however, they were not connected to the rest of the [[Road and Horse Network|RHN]]. The station had a [[Nether Transport Network|NTN]] nether portal, but it was not connected (it led directly into a bastion).

The station contained all the classic SRN staples we all know and love (including a much desired log book!), as well as map of the area. This area included the station's original ticket booths, which were still in service today. Outside, the Leon Regencies' flag was represented on the Winding tower.

Outside were a few small boats, two from Leon, and a small canal boat, too.
==History==
The station was designed when {{player|Slomo_1994}} and the Leon City planners realized that the journey from Kriwick to Leon would be too long for a single line, and that another station should be slotted in. Two Lakes was that station, and the idea spurred from a conversation while scouting, when one player noticed there was a mine in the area. Quickly, an idea started to form, with the plan being for a mining complex on a small natural barrier between the two lakes. The designer felt it would be nice to make more of the waterways accessible by boat, and so a small canal was designed (in lore, this was probably used for Leon patrol ships, and ships carrying cargo from the mine elsewhere).
The winding tower was inspired by the iconic Big Pit winding tower, at the museum of the same name near Pontypool, South Wales.{{TransportDiagram East Line (Shepherd)}}In terms of lore, more about Two Lakes and the entirety of the East Line can be found on [[Great Eastern Railway|this]] page.

Kirwick Station

'''{{ROOTPAGENAME}}''' was the second station on the Shepherd East Line of the [[Survival Railway Network (Survival 5)|SRN]]. As well as a station, it served as the primary base of its deisgner (and Shepherd East Line Manager) {{player|Slomo_1994}}. The station also served the Shepherd Ring Line.
==About==
The station was designed in a British Victorian suburb style, with the exterior based on [[wikipedia:Hanwell_railway_station|Hanwell Station]] in West London. The station sat very far south for an East Line station, owing to difficult terrain and biomes. The station was right in the middle of [[Kirwick]] town, and was accessed from 2 entrances: the main one to the south, or the side entrance to the north. In Dogcraft lore, it was built by the [[Great Eastern Railway]] during its expansion to spawn.

The station can be approached by various means. Obviously, the Shepherd East Main Line ran through the station, with a tunnel to the West and the large Kirwick viaduct to the East, as the line ran through the town. The station had two connections for the Shepherd Ring line, with the connection going North expected to join to [[Caelon]]. No route was planned for the Ring line South, but it still went through Kirwick at street level, going past the Slomo Corp Factory complex (a [[Slomo Corp Factory Complex|repurposed POI]] from the Survival 4 Husky East Line from Hub station to Meridian). There were also two (currently unused) branchline terminals. The station was reachable by foot along the [[Road and Horse Network|RHN]]'s Shepherd Turnpike and Kirwick Road, where there was a small stable facility. Eventually, Kirwick Road led to the Caelon/Leon road. A [[Connected Seas Coalition|CSC]] port was located close to the station, on the North side, visible from the platforms. The station had an [[Nether Transport Network|NTN]] portal.

Inside the station, you found all the SRN essentials, including beds, crafting tables and an ender chest.

Outside the station, there was a small plaza to the south, which included a small [[Monty Coffee]] shop, nestled inside one of the railway arches. The rest were used as garages by the owners of the townhouses opposite. To the North, there was a small park.

==History==

==== Station ====

The station was designed before Survival 5 started, with the plan being for the station to be the first on the East Line, and in a temperate biome, (e.g. a forest/plains). However, when the server reset, this was very much not the case. The majority of the land to the East of spawn (especially around East Station and Kiriwick) were all warm biomes (e.g. Desert, Savanna). This posed a problem for a station with greenery elements, and so the design for East Station was eventually slotted in.{{TransportDiagram East Line (Shepherd)}}During the design phase, numerous elements were chopped and changed, the most noticeable being the addition of the branches. These were added with advice from senior members of the NTN.

It was difficult to find the right spot for Kirwick due to the large mountain range to the West of the station, therefore compromises had to be made. The way the station was designed and placed required a tunnel for the mountain, and this was designed by {{player|DragonFire441}}, a smaller version of the original. The larger version has been used on the line between Kirwick and East. Both tunnels came out very well.

In terms of lore, more about Kirwick and the entirity of the East Line can be found on [[Great Eastern Railway|this]] page.

==== Port ====
The port was designed as an submission for the Connected Seas Competition Winter 2023, where the idea was that it was an effort to regenerate the area. As part of this, several areas of the waterfront patches were finished off.

The port won the connectivity award, as well as receiving commendations in the accessibility and beauty categories.

More information can be found on the [[Great Eastern Railway]] page.

'''East Station''' was the first station on the Survival 5 [[Survival Railway Network|SRN]] East Line on Shepherd. It was designed by {{player|Slomo_1994}}.
==About==
The station was loosely inspired by the [https://www.festrail.co.uk/ Ffestiniog & Welsh Highland Railway's] station at [https://www.google.com/maps/place/Porthmadog/@52.9272759,-4.1352072,15z/data=!3m1!4b1!4m5!3m4!1s0x48657550719dd0ed:0x8b4ab9194289afcd!8m2!3d52.927842!4d-4.133384 Porthmadog]. Elements such as the deepslate retaining walls were inspired by the Cob embankment which linked the town with the hills on the other side of the estuary.

Other than that, the station was a mish-mash of standard railway elements and SRN necessities, which culminated in an uninspiring and boring station. The station had all the usual features of an SRN station, including mainline and branch line terminals, maps, beds, crafting areas (including a furnace setup), and [[Nether Transport Network|NTN]] connection.

The station also featured a garden, designed by {{player|Slomo_1994}} and {{player|LadyDragonWolf}}.

==History==
The station design was never originally intended to be the first station on the East Line. Instead, this was meant to be the building we now know as Kirwick. {{player|Slomo_1994}} deemed the Kirwick building to be unsuitable for the desert biome which occcupied a lot of the space around East Station. Because of this, the station was rather lackluster, and did not have the pizazz you'd expect from a modern SRN station.

It was built in the first few days/weeks of the server, as both the first station and a temporary base for its designer and builder, Slomo_1994. The line itself took a lot longer, however, mainly due to other IRL things that were happening, and the bridge which linked spawn with the mainland (this was completed solo). The station gardens were some of the last things to be added.

Later on, an RHN shelter was constructed, as the Shepherd turnpike ran right outside the station.

In lore, the station was the closest to spawn, as the [[Great Eastern Railway]] ran out of funds to build a station and bridge to spawn, giving a reason for it being so small.
