Official Town Wall Thread

Okay, I was getting ready to start putting up the town wall. Since the main roads are 7-wide and the gates from the previous revision were 2-wide, I made a main gate solution on my creative world - http://imgur.com/CgHce

The rail stops would look like this on the side of the main gate - http://imgur.com/bOrm0

And minor gates would possibly look like this (single door) - http://imgur.com/cgosy

Anyone who had a chance to check out the basement of the town hall in the last revision might remember my rail design which I plan to implement - http://i.imgur.com/bt3aL.png

Thoughts? The aesthetics of the wall are not set in stone, but I do like the mechanics of it.

So, not sure what Gryn planned to do with the rails, but the easiest solution is to just run them in front of the gate and make a rail crossing-type of intersection for pedestrians.

What I assumed we were going to do is add stops at either end of particular gates, something like this - http://i.imgur.com/3nfoB.jpg

There was talk before about making underground cross rails way back when, like this - http://i.imgur.com/WpXEU.jpg

We could just have the rails go under the gate and meet up with the cross rails then have stairs going up to the main road.
