Design

The first two things that you’ll notice when arriving at the station was it’s size and the massive locomotive displayed inside it.

The station was built up in different levels. In the basement was storage area for the HQ. It had all the needs for building stations and more. Using a theme of dark oak and stone textures, the floor stood out in the yellow and cyan colors depicting the SRN-letters. Going up from there, using a brick and stone texture, the walls tower high up to house the massive locomotive representing the rail lines the SRN stands for. On a smaller sublevel, we find the station platforms. The two platforms face the same direction, much like they did on the West-Station for survival 3.

Above the station platforms, there were several offices for the line managers. On the first floor, there were 4 smaller offices provided for the Line managers on Beagle. On the upper floor below the roof, the offices for the Line managers on the Husky world can be found. In the summer of 2021, the station was overhauled and the office floor was renovated to provide equal sized offices for all line managers, for both Husky and Beagle.

The roofs were constructed using dark oak and dark prismarine blocks.

History

The SRN HQ was originally planned to be located close to Husky Spawn. After a lot of troubles with the permissions around the area were the building was supposed to come, it was decided to have the HQ away from spawn. Thus came the idea to have it at the next West Station.

The first bricks were laid around the beginning of July 2020. It took  Skelleton123 3 months to complete the structure for the station and the line. Almost 5 months after opening the first station on the line, this station was opened. It took until the end of 2021 to finish of the station with a branchline connection and RHN shelter.

Meanwhile, another locomotive was constructed by  23craftart on the east side of the station.

Over the months in 2021, a new effort was made to create a GSM (Grand Server Map) due to Dynmap going offline. It was placed on the South East corner of the station.

Station Facilities

The station provided an enderchest, crafting table, map of the local area and a nether portal connecting to the NTN. Further more the station had offices for line managers and the SRN HQ storage in the basement. There were no beds nor elytra jump off provided. Plans for both were included in the building that would house the branchline connections.
