Create Trains + CustomPortalAPI (1.20.1)

by damiennesretrotech

Create Trains + CustomPortalAPI lets Create Mod trains pass through portals built with CustomPortalAPI, so rail routes can cross into custom dimensions.

FabricClient and serverCC0 1.0 UniversalOpen source1.20.1

What it does

Trains from the Create Mod can enter portals made with CustomPortalAPI, and they travel between the linked portals along a rail bridge placed at the entrance and exit, similar to how the Nether works with rails. Once a train crosses, it continues its route on the other side, which makes long-distance transport between dimensions possible without leaving the train system.

The mod works as a compatibility bridge that connects Create Mod trains with dimensions added by other mods. It is built on an earlier integration of Create Trains with Custom Portal API, and this version adapts that approach to 1.20.1. Create Fabric is required, and Custom Portal Builder is optional for building the portals themselves.

Files are published for Fabric only, for 1.20.1, with the latest build 1.0.0+1.20.1-build.28 dated 2025-08-24. Every player and the server need a copy of the mod. It is open source under the CC0 1.0 Universal license, and its source code and issue tracker are public.

Key features

  1. Trains through custom portals

  2. Rail bridges between portals

    A rail bridge placed at the portal entrance and exit carries the train from one portal to the linked one.

  3. Dimension mod compatibility

    Dimensions added by mods that use Custom Portal API become reachable by train, including the Twilight Forest.

What the author says

This mod allows Create Mod trains to travel between portals constructed via the Custom Portal API. Much like in the Nether, placing a rail at the front of a portal will bridge between the entrance and exit.
