Preface

Purpose of This Document

The Rail and Road Standards Manual establishes a standard for the design and structure of rail and road networks maintained or overseen by the Shire Transit Authority (STA). The standards described in this document are not a strict design limitation of new or existing parts of the networks but merely a guide to assist those unfamiliar with STA standards in creating a local transportation network that can interconnect to the existing intra-build railway network.

Process for Establishment of Standards

The initial standards described in this document are based on the common standards utilized within the STA Networks as of May 25, 2022. Modifications to this document are subject to the approval of STA members.

Members

The following is a list of active STA members:

  • Nebbers
  • CoffeeAndChill
  • Antheus

Formatting

Throughout this document, formatting is used to describe how the text on signs should be written. Depending on your rank you may have access to sign color formatting. The following is a list of formatting codes and how they appear in this document and on the server. Please note that using the codes takes up two of the fifteen characters allowed per line on signs.

Special Symbols

In some signs the guillemet symbols (» and «) are used. If your keyboard layout does not natively have these symbols you can copy them from another source or, if you are on Windows, use the alt codes Alt+174 for « and Alt+175 for ».

Other useful characters are ↑, ↓, →, ←, ↔, and ↕. These can be accessed with Alt + [23, 24, 25, 26, 27,28]


Rail Standards

Standards can be either required or recommended. The words "must", "must not", "should", and "should not" are used within definition of https://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2119.txt.
