Create Train Utilities (Create Train Doors)
by Adeptstack
Create Train Doors adds sliding train doors with opening and closing sounds, plus platform and wall blocks for stations and trains, as a Create addon.
What it does
Doors slide open and shut with recorded sounds, giving stations and rolling stock a finished look. The mod is built around the Create mechanics, so its blocks sit alongside the rest of the Create train content. It requires Architectury API, Create and DragonLib, and Fabric builds also need Create Fabric.
Platform blocks and noise isolation walls are included in the 3.x line, but version 4 removes them and renames the mod. Those blocks are planned to move to a successor that concentrates on rail lines and station areas and has not been released yet. Steam 'n' Rails and its NeoForge version are optional companions. The code is open source under the GNU Affero General Public License v3.0 only, and the mod runs on client and server.
Files exist for 1.18.2, 1.19.2, 1.20.1 and 1.21.1, with the latest 3.1.0-C6 build for 1.20.1 on Fabric and Forge and 3.1.0 for 1.21.1 on NeoForge, all dated 2026-08-16.
Key features
Sliding train doors
Doors open and close on a sliding track, with a sound played on each movement.
Platform blocks
Platform blocks for station floors are included in version 3.1.0 and are scheduled for removal in version 4.
Noise isolation walls
Wall blocks meant to reduce sound between spaces are part of the 3.x line and are scheduled for removal in version 4.
Opening and closing sounds
Each door plays its own opening and closing sound, so a moving door is heard as well as seen.

Use cases
Station building
Builders use the doors and platform blocks to fit out stations with enclosed waiting areas and entrances.
Train interiors
Doors and wall blocks can line the carriages of a Create train, matching the look of the sliding entrances.
Who it’s for: Players building Create train stations and carriages on Fabric, Forge or NeoForge, who want sliding doors and sounds. Players who need platform blocks past version 3.x should plan a switch to a successor mod before updating.
How it compares
Train design improvements is a Forge-only mod for 1.20.1 under All rights reserved and is not open source, so it does not run on Fabric or NeoForge. Create: Maintenance Control covers Forge and NeoForge for 1.20.1 – 1.21.1 under the GNU General Public License v3.0 only, and its code is open source. Create: Chairs on Trains is open source under the MIT License for Fabric, Forge and NeoForge, with files for 1.19.2 – 1.20.1.
