Pavilion Station is 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 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 Baxter Park Pavilion in Dundee, Scotland.
The station features a very warm block palette, suited to its location in a savannah biome. This block palette is mainly comprised of wood and sandstone, with grey stained glass being used for many of the stations windows. The main station building is a relatively small, slender building, but contains all the necessary amenities a station needs, with two main line connections being located at either end of the building, and branch line connections dotted about in between. There are also water elevators that take players up the the rooftop, where more beds as well as trident take off points and a map of the area can be found.
The front of the station features a tiered seating area and flowerbed, followed by a lawn that the main path cuts through leading to the station's CSC port at the riverside, simply named Pavilion Port. At the back of the station there is 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 is the structure that houses the NTN nether portal, which connects the station to the Akita South NTN Tunnel, via a custom nether tunnel that HatterSkye built.
The line connecting Burrow Station to Pavilion Station is the longest stretch on the Akita South Line and passes through many biomes. It was predominantly built by Montenator but Elednor89 and FinnMcCoul helped placing rails to finish off the line.
