Minitrains are a narrow-gauge (1,016 m) service trains powered by [[Fuel Types#Diesel|Diesel]]. The player can operate a minitrain to move themselves easier around the mines or hook up various wagons to move resources with them, such as rocks and ores.


The amount of attached carts determines the acceleration rate of the minitrain and its breaking distance. Player can increase the performance in this regard by connecting multiple minitrains together. If the speed of the minitrain is too high, a direct collision with a train-stopper or an another minitrain present on the tracks will result in very severe physical trauma to the player.

To operate, the minitrains need to be filled up with diesel, that can be bought from Hardware Stall, found around the world while looting or obtained at the fuel stations in the mines. Player has to insert the diesel into a fuel filler on the right side of the minitrain, marked with a red cap.

To start up the minitrain, player interacts {{Button|E}} with its control panel. Player can now accelerate the minitrain {{Button|W}} forwards and {{Button|S}} backwards, pull a {{Button|LCtrl}} break or stop {{Button|E}} operating the controls.

Player can also interact {{Button|E}} with the minitrain's front and rear couplers, engaging it ready to couple or disabling it entirely. If the coupler is engaged, player moving the locomotive slowly towards a wagon will automatically hook it together. If two minitrains are next to each other with their couplers touching, player can manually hook together the carts or disengage them.
