Bearainstein Station
Bearainstein Station is a Railway Station and Transit Hub in Bearainstein. Housed with a bus interchange, carpark, and various platforms for rail lines both overground and underground, it is the current main station for Bearainstein Town.
Information
Bearainstein Station is currently the South-Eastern Terminus of the Tokaido Shinkansen operated by MervRail, planned to connect Bearainstein and South-Eastern Towns to Central City. East of Bearainstein lies extension tracks for a potential future extension of the Tokaido Shinkansen to a new terminal for Bearainstein if expansion takes place. Plans to construct an Airport and link it with the Tokaido Shinkansen is also underway. MervRail Rail Depot is also located about 150 blocks east of Bearainstein Station.
Bearainstein Station is also the terminus of the Silent Plains Line, operated by Southern Plains Rail, connecting the town to Dulwich Station.
History
Bearainstein Station was the first building to be built in Bearainstein Town, before commercial development occurred surrounding the station. A bus interchange and carpark were built together with the station, making the station an Integrated Transport Hub.
In mid-2017, Southern Plains Rail extended their services to Bearainstein, with the Silent Plains Line linking Dulwich Central to Bearainstein. Platforms are underground, and was built together with metro platforms for potential use in future. These were all contributed with the thanks of player Jian_zen.
RaiLinQ has expressed interest in constructing rail services, stopping at Bearainstein. Platforms are likely to be underground and services were slated to commence end-2018. However, this never materialised.
Platform Layouts
The Station consists of Overground and Underground Platforms, most of which are constructed underground due to limited land space surrounding the station building after construction of the town has started.

Future Plans
Another extension to the Bus Interchange will be constructed opposite the transit hub, just across the street from the current bus terminal.
Due to the appearance of Station P42 on the MRT Plains Line, plans are still ongoing to decide how to link both Bearainstein stations together.
