I used a very simple rail stop when making the Netherrail. Dig a 1x4 trench in line with the rail. Place three power rails down in the trench, then one normal rail. The power rails should face the direction the player is coming from and the normal rail the direction he is going. When connected up the first unpowered power rail will be on a slant, and should stop the player halfway onto it. The player can get off there if they choose, or simply press a button (located in the center) to continue. The slanted track acts like a solid block to push them forward, and the three rails get them up to max speed.

Off topic from Stations:
I'm working on the North line tunnel. I managed to reconnect the passage to some intact tunnels, and the north line currently extends (without complete track) to x575, z-2200. Work is ongoing (in the Z negative northward direction).

The station and tunnel leading out of Abyssus are still intact and I can help extend the line to connect with the rest of the subway if needed.

This are my realms before the wipe, they are still intact. My rail system runs from my tower in the water out toward where City of Clow used to be. I would like to connect it to the main Southern line as I used to be able to travel to spawn on the rail.

I also attached a screenshot of my tunnel design. It allows for running or horse riding below the elevated track with torches on every fence post attached to the columns (for added beauty).

Update: the North Line now has rails (Thanks to rail donations by MBXONE and Chammiefication) up to Z-3000. Several Intact pre-wipe realms and rail sections are included.

Here is my bridge design.

I also have a junction design shown in another attachment.

Do you have ladders? I can see the elevated track being a problem with how getting out of a minecart puts the player some distance from the rail. Same with the bridge one. They'd end up in the water.

One of the things that needs to be included is access. The lines I built down south had surface access every 200 meters (just a shaft with a ladder) because without surface access the subway is pretty much useless. No point in trying to get somewhere if you're going to have to overshoot by hundreds (or thousands) of meters because you don't want to risk blindly digging upward.

If anyone wants to help with the south line that be great its all non player owned, it would help if the world map updated would make it easy to figure out location

Up to x25 z4600 directly south from old frogtown, about z3800 is tracked out 1 way allthough it still needs work

According to the old map south line needs to spur west about z4000 to link up with Abyssus

if anyone can post the rail cords at Abyssus this would help or dig directly east from Abyssus you will hit the spawn south rail at x25
