#Colored Monorails

Currently, there is only one color for Monorails: black.
Colored Monorails are needed due to multiple reasons:

  1. Other railways have multiple colors including dark oak, nether wood, and gold, etc. However, the Monorail only has a 'mono' color with simple greyish black. Putting color on the railway allows the players to distinguish different railways. I believe this feature must apply to the monorails as well for consistency. Monorails require either different materials (gold or nether wood as aforementioned) or different color schemes entirely.

  2. Colored Monorails also opens possibilities surrounding using railways as 'part' of the architectural design.

  3. Create only has a single kind of rail, which is the reason why we have this amazing addon called Create: Steam 'n' Rails that adds various kinds of decorative railways . Then, isn't about time to add variety to the color of the Monorails as well?

this is a cool idea

Good idea. I personally always imagine monorail rails to be white or gray in colour. so this idea makes sense to me.

concrete monorails make sense to me tbh

Use locometals for different monorail colors

Dyeing monorails would be cool for colour coded monorail systems

#

Like not a full colour change but one like belts

#

The introduction of locometal fits so we'll with locometal monorail variants

having em paintable like belts could also be fun

#

more industrial use for them

#

a stone/concrete version of monorails would be cool

#

for example, Disney use concrete track for their monorails, Florida Intl airport uses them too

normal pier
#

This would work well for realistic monorails as their tracks are often just gray good idea I approve

What could work is maybe on the side of them just so it’s easier to tell them apart
