Since the train track already exists in the game files. I would love to see it be fleshed out. Trying to make trains in the game itself is hard as stuff like collision and Unity's physics system prevents the train from driving on the track smoothly. The video bellow shows how the train is colliding with the side of the block and that causing it to stop.
That's not a problem with the game but with Unity's physics engine. It happens mainly because the engine is thinking it's colliding with the side of the block even tho it isn't. This type of issue with collision is easy to find out if you have sphere collider run across 2 box coliders and see it make a bump even tho it technically shouldn't.
This is where i think the game needs some type of special action blocks specifically for rails and train tracks and have some type of custom physics for them. The small 1x1 block could be used for things like sliding mechanisms and sliding doors while the train wheel part could be used for rail based vehicles like trains. there could also potentially be a part for rollercoaster so you could build your own rollercoasters and so on. just some type of system that allows the player to build trains or sliding things along the rail.
