Hello.
While I love this mod, since I love trains so this (everything on one planet, perfect for train) vs space age related mod (new stuff but each on different planet because planet over train....), the main issues is at the beggining. There are so many resources that a train, even if it's just the mini one, actually the mini one is perfect for this mod, needs to be accesable as soon as possible (for me and probably other train lovers) since massive Train railway > Belts madness.
I tested a mini train mod + that mod that makes mini train show up before the normal train.

I take no credit in any way or form
So far so good, the train is avalable (as a research) just when needed... except the rail signals and stops are not....
I will post this request on the <lead the way> discussion as well, since I don't know who is willing to integrate early train. Also, if mini trains are or should be later in game, even if they are added, can this be as a "default", meaning in mod options there is a "get very early access" tick box? Because again, myself, and maybe others as well, we want to play this mod because it's perfect for massive train network and not belt madness, even if it will still happen
Thank you
