English crossing decor

by oreonwhitby

English crossing decor brings UK level crossing equipment into NeoForge 1.21.1, with lights, barriers and bells for railway crossings.

NeoForgeClient and serverAll rights reserved1.21.1

What it does

The mod adds level crossing lights, non-functional barriers and bells, based on the basic blocks used to build semi-accurate UK level crossings in Minecraft. Most of the content is purely decorative. The one functional exception is the wigwag light, which animates when activated. Two bell types are activated by redstone, and the crossing lights and barriers can be placed to match a scene.

Blocks include AHB and MCB style barriers, a Penguin barrier, an abandoned Penguin barrier, and weathered or abandoned versions of several blocks for run-down crossings. Some signals and signs are included as well. Planned additions named by the author are working lights and barriers, road markings, track grade crossings, traffic lights, other road infrastructure and station infrastructure, but these are not in the current release.

The mod is published for NeoForge only, for 1.21.1. Both the server and every player need it, because the blocks are placed and rendered on both sides. It is released under All rights reserved and is not open source. The author has said the work is for personal use and that the mod was released because few mods cover UK crossing equipment.

Key features

  1. Level crossing lights

    Crossing lights include a wigwag mode that swings the lamps, the one functional decoration in the set.

  2. Redstone bells

    Two bell types sound when a redstone signal activates them, for crossings that need an audible warning.

  3. Barrier variants

    AHB, MCB and Penguin barriers, plus an abandoned Penguin barrier, give several styles of crossing gate.

  4. Weathered blocks

    Weathered and abandoned versions of several blocks suit disused or run-down crossings.

What the author says

NOTICE: the features in this mod are purely decorational and are not meant to function with the exception of the "functional wigwag". it is unlikely that other crossings from other countries will be added. Actually, it is almost certain that I will not be adding crossings / equipment from other countries. This mod…
