Talk:Rail transport

Rename Page?

Maybe I'm just being picky here, but the article is named 'Monorail Transport'. However the train as it appears in Black Mesa isn't a monorail like it was in Half-Life, but a triple rail system (Do they have a name for those?). So seeing as the Materials Transport System isn't a Monorail in this mod, I'm thinking the page should be renamed to Rail Transport. --Mr. Someguy, 10 July 2010

You are right. I haven't noticed that subtle (!) detail when I made the article. "Rail Transport" is a good name to use in this case. I'll rename the article and adapt the text to reflect the changes. Thanks for pointing this.
By the way seems that the third rail in the materials transport is actually an electric conductor for the trams, and not a real rail. So that kind of triple rail system don't have a name itself, as explained here. (Of course don't quote me on that, because I'm not a rail expert or a BM dev, but it apparently fits in the design changes of the mod. Just for curiosity.) --Conti 22:26, 10 July 2010 (UTC)
