Berryville Railways

Berryville Railways is the name of the rail network (once a rail conglomerate) that runs within the town of Berryville. 
==The Stations==
===Working Stations (As of the end of Season I)===
In order of when constructed, these are:
====South Fields====
It was named after the farm nearby of the same name. As the oldest of all the stations (by far), it has gone through three major phases:
Phase I
During the very early days of the Railways, South Fields could barely even be considered a station, It was just a line with a block at the end of it, as simple as that. This, predictably, caused a few problems. Mainly that the process to get it out of the station was very tedious. Still, this style of station was kept for a few days.
Eventually, these problems would be fixed, with a special type of junction, called the "Magnet Junction". The Junction worked by having two lines of track (instead of one), and having these two joined by a junction. One side would be for the goods, the other for the engine. This worked as well as it could be, and was officially installed in both this stations and its sister station (the now defunct), Ander-Bridge Station. 
Phase II
As part of the B.G.R Expansion, a station was finally properly added to south fields, this station was two simple sandstone platforms with the Magnet Junction at the end of it. The design was very simple on purpose, as to mix in with the other stations (Ander-Bridge and East Fields), as well as it originally only being used for goods work. The Station was built and finished first. it would keep this design until the opening of passenger services.
Phase III
This change came along as part of the passenger expansion of Berryville Railways, or the creation of the B.P.R (Berryville, Passenger, Railway). As the only station among the three from the B.G.R to be used by the B.P.R, it needed an expansion. Roofs were added on-top of its platform and some of its rails, and the station grew in size as a small yard (comprised of only two sidings), was added on its East-Side. After the failure of the opening of the B.P.R, the station was the only one not to be changed, as it was the only one to already have a magnet junction installed.
It would get an upgrade latter though. This Upgrade would bring a bigger yard to the West, where the magnet junction was moved for convenience, and a second wing to the station, as the old yards were turned into a second wing, and were given roofs and arcs just like the first wing. This was the last design the station would have before the server was reset.
====East Fields====
Built as part of the B.G.R expansion and named after the farm of the same name it was built to support. It is the only station that has never expanded and or changed, due to this the station is (by far) the smallest. It only has one platform, as it had no room for two, and has only two lanterns to its name (originally lamp-posts that were switched out of normal lanterns on blocks). It is the only station that still uses the old "piston system" of stopping trains, meaning that it is very inefficient. It was also the only "optional" station, at least before Timothy Park also became one later, this means that trains aren't forced to stop here, this means that the station is easily the least used out of the bunch, as its only used when needed for wheat trains.
====New Timothy Park====
Named after the national reserve in which it is located in, this station has gone threw two phases:
Phase I
As part of the B.P.R expansion, New Timothy Park was built, just south of South Fields as part of the opening of a new National Reserve. As Part of the "Southern Loop", this station was built first. The design was very similar to the one south field would soon have, two platforms (each with four lanterns) and two arches that work as roofs above the track, with an exit of both sides that led into the national reserve. The station also had the old "piston system" of stopping trains. 
Phase II
After the failure of the B.P.R, the station was heavily modified to improve the line. First the piston system was replaced with a magnet junction and the station was expanded to now have a small dome to its right side. Said dome encircled a small lake that was located there.The line would later become an optional station, as it was decided that Aqua Falls and it were too close to each other, as the least used (at the time) the station became part of its own mini-line. Eventually as berryville expanded a new oak farm was made nearby the station, so to reach it a new road (called timothy RD), was connected to the station. Thanks to this expansion the station now saw regular use as transportation to not only the oak farm, but Ecuador nearby. 
====Aqua Falls====
It is the only station not named after the area its around, as the name comes from the colour of the Whyte Falls near it, "aqua". It has gone through two phases:
Phase I
As the final of the two stations of the "Southern Loop", this station was one of the first built. Originally it had two platforms, one with a arch-roof and an opening to the Whyte Falls, ad the other a simple platform with no roof, the line originally looped here and returned to South Fields to be sent towards Podzol Valley. Like the others, this station also had a "piston system". 
Phase II
After the Failure of the B.P.R, the station was expanded, like the others. The arches now roofed over the entire line as well as the second platform and a new small yard was added at the stations south, with a magnet junction and all. The final change was to make the line no longer loop back to South Fields, and instead become part of its own branchline, the "Ecuadorian Line",
while plans to continue the line to Ecuador were made, they never flourished.
====Toby's Hill====
Originally called "Podzol Valley", this station was renamed in honour of Toby the Sheep, a sheep who worked on the railway as the Signalmen for East Fields, who was killed in an accident. 
The Station was originally designed to be the biggest on the railway, and possible the world, but when it was found out that Podzol Valley was much less wide than expected, the plans were scrapped and the station was scaled down. Despite this, the station is still decently big (7 chunks), the station has two platforms with roofing on both of them (the design of which was heavily inspired by Knapford Station), a siding on the left side, and the yard on its south end, where the magnet junction originally was located. In an attempt to expand the station, a new yard was made in the north of the station, where the magnet was moved. A Water tower was also built here.
====Calian Port====
Named after the Colombian City of "Cali", this station was made of its own brachline of sorts. The station was built to provide a way to get to the north of colombia by boat, the plan was to take the river that was nearby the station. This plan fell threw though, as too much work was required to make this work, so the station became one of the least used. The Station's design is rather unique, as the only one with a direct connection with a body of water (not counting Timothy Park's Lake or South Fields near connection with the sea). Due to this the station has a small sandstone port. Its also the only station on its line, meaning that trains arrive here and loop back, this means that the station is only one platform that loops around a set of track. The platform has as its roofs, a set of arches, similar to Aqua Falls or Timothy Park. 
====Podzol Valley====
It is the only one that started construction, but was never finished, although if it had it would have been the biggest (by far). It is also the most northern station, reaching into the very end of Podzol Valley. The station was planned to have 3 platforms with arches with a design almost identical to Toby's Hill. The Station was opened though, kind of. The Storage room for the farms was moved here after Ander-Bridge Storage Closed, this meant that for almost all of its life it was used for mostly goods work, and not passenger work as intended.
===Closed/Cancelled Stations===
In order of when constructed/planned these are:
====Ander's Bridge Storage====
Closed
This was the second station ever built, at the same time as South Fields, unlike it though it stayed the same for most of its existence. It was a simple one line track with a block at the end with an opening to enter the storage room to its left. Eventually as the magnet junction was invented, it was installed into the station. Sheds for the engines were also planned to be here but were never built.
It would eventually close due to its location. The old line connecting the two stations had to be demolished due to a building being built on top of it. Due to a lack of iron the same number of track had to be used for the new station. This meant that the station had to be closer to South Fields, and so "Ander-Bridge Station" was built, alonside a new storage area, next to the town-hall in middleton street, and the old Storage closed down. 
The land were it once was wasn't fully used, with some of it becoming Banner ST, and some (most) becoming a plain with nothing on it.
====Ander-Bridge (Station)====
Closed
Despite being the replacement for Ander's Bridge Storage, the station wasn't much better, the design was practically the same, a magnet junction, with an opening to the storage room to the left. Over its about two month existence, nothing much changed. Not even the storage room it was supposed to be supporting. Eventually the storage room was determined to be in an uncomfortable location and to be way to small, so it was completely demolished and replaced with a storage room near Podzol-Valley, and so the station closed. 
The Land where the station once stood was used up completely by the brand new Ander's Bridge Bar.
