 +Before starting, it is important to recognize the primary goal of **Minecraft Transit Railway**.
 +
 +First and foremost, MTR primarily caters towards building **transit networks** in Minecraft that are designed to **run autonomously, on-time and with predictability**, all without the need of manual interventions by players. This means that while each MTR update will bring more sophisticated simulation details & mechanics, having extremely accurate and realistic vehicle simulation mechanics is not a primary goal of the mod nor something that the mod actively aims for.
 +
 +This also means that MTR empowers player with easy to use tools to oversee & manage their transit network effectively, this deviates from some other mods with the focus of mechanics and interactions directly within the Minecraft world.
 +
 +Sounds good? Let's dive in!

-**Rails** in MTR Mod is another fundamental concept, these are essentially tracks for train to run on. Unlike other train mod, each piece of track have a designated speed in which the automated train that is running on the rail will try to follow.+**Rail** in MTR Mod is another fundamental concept, it is essentially a track for trains to run on. Unlike most other train mods, each piece of track have a designated speed in which the automated train that is running on the rail will try to follow, rather than the other way around (Train having it's own speed limit)

-Rails are equally applicable to boats, planes and more! A better way to think of Rail is that **it is a path for automated vehicles to follow**. It is possible to change the appearance of a piece of rail by applying 3D model, or even without any model at all (an invisible path), which makes it suitable for transport types like buses & boats.+Rails are equally applicable to boats, planes and more! A better way to think of Rail is that **it is a path for automated vehicles to follow**. It is possible to change the appearance of a piece of rail by applying 3D model, or even without any model at all (an invisible path), which makes it possible to cater towards different transport types like buses & boats.
