Copy/pasting in my comment to someone else. Hope it helps.... Sorry for the late response... I know it can be a real pain. I'm thinking of doing another video showing how I do it on different maps. Best thing to do is start with a straight piece of track (don't place it on curves/hills). In World Editor (F11), set the first two rotation values to 0 & 0 which will make the train even & flat. Then try and get the "left/right" rotation right. If you need to make minor adjustments, you can make small adjustments to the # in the 3rd rotation field. Then, finally, move the train left/right & up/down to get the wheels aligned with the tracks. Going into freecam (Shift+C) and placing the camera underneath the train will help you see how close you are too. Hope this helps!!
It's crazy. I expected the train to automatically spawn on the tracks once the camera is nearby. Hopefully, it will be fixed in the future. Thanks for the video!
@@acetvgamingyt4166 still isn't like this and thats simply because most of the maps with working train tracks aren't made by the Devs who made beam. Same thing with the train.
i know i'm four years late, but a tip for others looking for some maps with train tracks, there is a decently-new map called "rocky coast USA" with a small train line that loops around the island, i will warn you however, it's a very small map only being 0.1 miles, still good enough if you want do to some small crashes or a police chase.
Like how to get the railway signals? One of them was provided to me privately so, unfortunately, I won't be sharing it as per the creator's request. However, here's a different one that you can download and use: www.beamng.com/resources/railroad-barrier.8869/
Dude, this is so freaking hard!!!! Holy crap I just wasted an hour of my life trying to get one train on a track...forget it. Thanks for the tutorial, it did help, but this is way above my pay grade lol
I hear you... not sure if you saw this tutorial I did as well that has some more techniques to try: ua-cam.com/video/EIy5Ih-pfuM/v-deo.html In particular, towards the end of the video I did a full walkthrough of placing a train on the tracks. Hope it helps and thanks for watching!
Lol. I can't get it to move but I haven't given up. I've decided to try to figure out how to skin it. That is going about as well as trying to get it to move. ha,ha,ha,ha!! *Great tutorial, BNGF!! User error here for sure. :)
Three years late, yadda yadda, but a note when checking the rotation value of the track: If you're trying to land on a curved track... just don't you can't Pick the nearest straight track, align it, then you'll have to back the train to where on the curved track you want it to spawn and save the home position another way. I do not think there is a way to make the bogies align automatically with the track.
thank you for tutorial, long time could not understand why train cannot start :) as it turned out, also must use "T" button, don't know what it is... but I'll figure out! :)
Your best bet for finding good maps is through the official mods repository here: www.beamng.com/resources/ I've also linked some maps in the description that have train tracks. Thanks for watching! :)
@@bigburrito1007 yea i figured it out, but is there any way to make the ai drive the train, everytime i try it the ai just just goes full throttle and falls off the railway
hey i was wondering if you could possibly make a tutorial on how to make the train move while im in another car/vehicle so i could drive right in front of the train and get destroyed! if its possible, that would be awesome! thanks man!
I use the same train mod and when I press the the gas, it just revs up but doesn't move at all. This is about the train, not the map or the instructions.
@Ultra ok first download the zip then after its find the zip file in your downloads folder next open the beamng.drive folder in your documents if you cant find it search beamng on the search bar next double click it go to moved here with the arrow thing go to mods and then click repo
So I’ve tried spawning in the train a bunch of times but I can’t make the train go no matter what I do. Idk if it’s just something I’m doing wrong or if I need to reload the mods. I need some help.
Check your key bindings in settings. There might be something not bind correctly that needs to be added to make it work. By default, I believe the 'T' key is the throttle. Hope this helps and thanks for watching!
Which map is this happening on? If it's happening on an official map, two things to try.... 1. Start the game in Safe Mode (Launch BeamNG > Support Tools > Safe Mode). If it works here, then it's a mod causing the issue. 2. If it happens in Safe mode, launch the game and select Support Tools > Verify Integrity which will repair any broken game files. Hope this helps and thanks for watching!
@@BNGFPlus Although i had Beamng drive downloaded for free from Thepiratebay lol. Maybe you have to have it bought from Steam? Where did you get it from?
I need help, please. I have been making BeamNG.drive videos for my son for a year now, but I have not touched any trains. I would like to, however, and my son likes them. But to get to train to align with the tracks is a *nightmare*. Once you get one end to align, the other end is not. Is there a spot in like Tennessee map (or any other map with tracks) where you just put rotation and everything to zero and it will align at once, once you drop it down? Thanks.

Only one that's still active to download easily is the Tennessee Roane country but it has 7 different areas and I cant find any train tracks can you help me out?
Try starting at the default spawn location and press Shift+C to open free camera and then if you pull back the camera, you should see some tracks. Hope this helps and thanks for watching! :)
There's a couple of things you can try... first, you may need to change the order that you're attaching them. For example instead of pressing L on the boxcar, try pressing L on the train. If that doesn't work, you can switch the 'type' of coupler being used by pressing Ctrl+W and in the parts menu switching from 'Coupler A' to 'Coupler B' or vice versa depending what you have. Usually, by default, with everything facing forward, you can attach everything from back to front. Start with the second last boxcar, attach it to the last one and then start working your way towards the front of the train attaching everything up. Hope this helps and thanks for watching!
Try pressing 'T' first before accelerating it. You can also check the 'vehicle specific controls' to see what you have mapped to the throttle in settings. Hope this helps and thanks for watching!
@@enaqleelectric oh yeah also says that you need to press spacebar or p if your parking brakes are on and press press down arrow to disable the independent brakes i think or a dofferent type of brake

Looks like this game would really benefit from a GMod style physgun
There is something in it called a NodeGrabber. You can grab selected points on vehicles and yank them about.
@@bombwolf8919 damn it i wanted to say that
@@bombwolf8919 The nodegrabber isn't strong enough to lift trains. To use it, simply hold control and use the mouse to move the node.
