Factories

In the southern area of Your Station adjacent to The Seaport are the Factories. It's here where you craft items from basic materials that you gather in all the regions. The default capacity of each factory is two production slots. If you fill all unlocked slots without collecting the manufactured items, the Factory will halt until you collect at least one slot. However, you can upgrade each factory in exchange for gems up to a maximum of six slots. 
=== Factory Upgrades ===

Greyed areas indicate items not currently available in-game and planned for future expansion.
===Smelting Plant===
The Smelting Plant is the first of the factories in TrainStation 2.
It unlocks at player level 4.
	Once the Steel Factory is operational in Britain and before you can make Glass, you'll only need this factory for making Copper. As such, load it up! Max out the input and output trays, with 1 in the factory. Consequently, when you need copper, you can take a batch without waiting the thirty minutes for it to be processed. You can later get more copper going. Also, materials in input and output trays do not take up space in the Warehouse.

	Once the Timber Factory is operational in Germany and before you can make Plywood, you'll only need this factory for making Barrels. As such, load it up!

You can later get more barrels going. Also, materials in input and output trays do not take up Warehouse space.

===Build Materials===
Build Materials is unlocked at player level 302.
	Here's another situation where, for 102 levels, you can use a factory for storage and not have the quantities count against Warehouse storage. Once the Build Materials factory is operational and before you can make Bricks, you'll only need this factory for making Cement. Load it up! Max out the input and output trays plus 1 in the factory. That way, when you need Cement, you can take a batch without waiting the ten minutes for it to be processed. You can later get more cement going. Remember! Materials in input and output trays do not take up Warehouse space.
