Kenthurst is a Premier city that was established on 1 January 2015 by toneabet. Kenthurst is located west of Central City at XW9, XW10 and XW11 on the south-eastern shores of Lake Capricorn. Apart from the MRT line, you can reach Kenthurst by plane, warp rail lines, conventional minecart rail, ferries or by road.

The theme of Kenthurst is instantly recognisable. Black coal, white quartz and a hint of yellow canvass many of the buildings in the city, while the roads also feature this theme. However, having been established in a woodland biome filled with oak trees, mini lakes and rolling hills, the city always seeks to respect its natural heritage as it develops.

Residents can enjoy an abundance of public parks scattered throughout the city. We encourage you to run, walk or fly in our city, but if that is not possible please drive carefully around the city.

The world-famous AlikLolly is Headquartered and produced in Kenthurst. Come and tour the Global Headquarters, Display Centre and Production Facility! The somewhat less famous Windows96 is also headquartered in Kenthurst.

Kenthurst is always looking for residents, franchises and all assistance is appreciated! Leave a message on Aliksong's user talk page, mail Aliksong, or ask Alik in game.

  • On 1 September 2015, Kenthurst was promoted to Governor.
  • On 25 December 2016, Kenthurst attained the rank of  [Premier] .

Thank you all for your support!!!

Getting around Kenthurst

Within Inner Ring Road

  • North Side of MRT Expo Line: Many of the administrative buildings are located here, including the central business district, mall, high court and skyscrapers. You can find the Obelisk in the lake adjacent to the Central Business District.
  • South Side of MRT Expo Line: Crowne Towers are perched on the hill, overlooking the Kenthurst Markets (plenty of original franchises). Galaxy Tower Apartments are to the east, and to the west, the REKTangle features prominently.

Outside Inner Ring Road & Within Outer Ring Road B79

  • The North-West sector is the district of private walled estates on top of hills. Beautiful views of the city and of the biome. Mail Aliksong if you would like a plot.
  • Far North-West and on the shores of the Lake Capricorn, is Kenthurst Beach and Port. Follow the West Lake Arterial (long NW-SE diagonal road) all the way from the Central Business District to the Beach. Make sure to say g'day and check out the very modern Surf Life Saving Club and the towering Alikxandria Lighthouse!
  • The North-East sector is a suburban residential district with a neighbourly feel spectacularly set at the foot of the enveloping mountains. The Kenthurst Cow & Moon Observatory is perched on top of one of these mountains. The main streets are Music Street, Banana Street and Cortesi Street. Ask Aliksong if you would like a free plot to build a small 10x10 home. Any building style is welcome.
  • The South-West sector has the Jarryd Hayne Stadium, which hosts American Football tournaments against other MRT cities, such as Laclede. Also present is the Kenthurst Superslide, Kenthurst Boat Race Grand Prix, and the Ian Thorpe Aquatic Centre.
  • The South sector contains the Kenthurst Xenonite Station complex, which is the main intercity transport hub. It contains the Kenthurst stop of the CitiRail Liverpool Line as well as a large bus terminal which is linked to the Outer Ring Road. Future warp trains will also be accommodated underground at Kenthurst Xenonite Station. It was constructed by _frozen.
  • The South-East sector has the New Commercial District, which consists of new generation supertall skyscrapers. This area includes the global headquarters of AlikLolly and Windows96, and the Western Regional Headquarters of BnL.
  • The West sector has the Embassy Row, established to strengthen Kenthurst's relations with other cities of the New World.

Outside Outer Ring Road B79

  • South of  XW9  Kenthurst—Aerodrome lies Kenthurst Aerodrome, a 10 gate international airport which services key destinations in the New World and the Old World. It enables residents of Kenthurst to be connected to the rest of the world, while also allowing visitors from a multitude of locations to enjoy touring the greater Kenthurst region. Construction of the initial 6 gate airport was completed on 4 September 2015 by Cortesi, and the expansion to a 10 gate airport was completed a year later by Alik.
  • North of  XW9  Kenthurst—Aerodrome is the Central Park district of Kenthurst which is based on the park of the same name in New York. It is the premium high density residential district of Kenthurst. The majority of residences have lush green views of Central Park. A Forest Mini-Golf course operates in the middle of Central Park.
  • At  XW11  Kenthurst—Mississa Bay, the township of Mississa Bay has been amalgamated as a district of Kenthurst. The architecture is a mix of the original archaic stone builds, and the modern quartz and coal theme which canvasses Kenthurst. Mississa Bay was originally established by hntredtie but has since been expanded by Alik.
  • Far north of Kenthurst on the shores of the Lake Capricorn is the Kenthurst Fort complex, which is arguably the most fortified site on the MRT server. This facility is in charge of defending Kenthurst city from hostile entities and promoting peace in the region. It was a member of the League of Cities Armed Forces but is now an independent non-mercenary force.

Kenthurst Metrolink

Town Hall Circle Line Station

The Kenthurst Metrolink is a reliable metro which services a number of key destinations. As at 25 September 2021, there are 4 lines in operation and 2 lines that seem to be perpetually under construction.

The Circle Line follows the route of the Inner Ring Road and has been upgraded to Mycelium Technology by AP_Red. The North-South Line goes from Kenthurst Xenonite Station in the south, to Kenthurst Fort in the far north, and has also been upgraded to Mycelium Technology by AP_Red. The Kenthurst-Ezzo City Intercity Express serves as a connector line between Kenthurst and Ezzo City, which form the Mid Western Exposition SMP. The Mississa Bay Line serves as a south-west connection between Kenthurst Xenonite Station and Mississa Bay, and services key sporting destinations.

There are also two high speed metro lines built by ChimeRail.

This map outlines the route of the 6 metro lines, including 2 high speed metro lines built by ChimeRail.

In conjunction with the Kenthurst Metrolink, ChimeRail is also constructing 2 High Speed Metro lines which utilise the Ucar glitch. Speeds of more than 3 times the usual minecart speed can be achieved via this glitch. Hence, Kenthurst will operate on a dual metro system, just like Paris does. As of September 2020, the ChimeRail line is not operational and is proceeding at a pace comparable to the Rome Metro Line 3 (ie. at a snail's pace).

3rd Party Intercity Rail

Kenthurst is highly connected to other cities on the New World. It is served by a number of 3rd party rail companies via conventional minecart rail as well as warp rail lines.

Most trains go through Kenthurst Xenonite Station (KEX - south Kenthurst) which is the main transport hub for the city. However, there are also a number of stations scattered throughout the city for decentralisation reasons and also because there are too many layers of tunnels underneath Kenthurst Xenonite Station. The approximate station locations are noted below in addition to other useful information. This information is accurate as at 25 September 2021.

International Convention Centre

Alik saw the need for a place for Kenthurst's residents to gather for official meetings and briefings, and at the time the Town Hall (despite being a nice looking building) lacked functionality as a meeting place. The International Cenvention Centre was built in response to this need. The building is located opposite the Town Hall, on the other side of the Grand Canal of Kenthurst. Its design was inspired by a lilypad and the landscaping of the surrounding area was inspired by Cambridge University in the United Kingdom. Underneath the building, there is a Kenthurst Metrolink station of the same name.

Kenthurst Xenonite Station

As Kenthurst expanded in size, Alik saw a need to expand the existing transit hub. Therefore, the Kenthurst South Railway Station was demolished and replaced with the new Kenthurst Xenonite Station. It is located just north of the south segment of the Kenthurst Outer Ring Road B79. Construction was completed in December 2015 by Frozen.

The station is a large intermediate stop on the CitiRail Liverpool Line, which runs from Whitechapel to Daneburg via  M10  City of Evella. Additionally, the Kenthurst Metrolink North-South Line merges into the Liverpool Line when travelling southbound. Northbound passengers can easily transfer to the Kenthurst Metrolink by making their way down the stairs, if they wish to travel into the central Kenthurst districts.

Warp trains also stop at Kenthurst Xenonite Station. The platforms are located deep underground and are accessible via the deep shaft elevators on the northern end of Kenthurst Xenonite Station. The warp trains will allow for residents and visitors of Kenthurst to travel large distances to and from the city with ease.

Kenthurst Xenonite Station is also planned to be the only intermediary stop in the League Express, which is operated by RegionalConnect. This line will provide a high speed connection between Formosa and Vermilion, which contain hubs of the League of Cities.

An elevated bus terminal is located on the southern wing of the station, and allows for a convenient transfer into intercity buses via the Kenthurst Outer Ring Road.

Military

Kenthurst's military is stationed at Kenthurst Fort, on the northern coastline of the Kenthurst peninsula. It is a large military complex which contains a barracks, saferooms, bunkers, guard towers with working rail guns, a private runway, several fighter jets, heavy tanks, mech suits, armed sentry bots, and two commando regiments. It is a very fortified military complex. It is commanded by Marshall Aliksong, who is supported by Captain KittyCat11231 and Lieutenant Camelfantasy. The terminus of the Kenthurst Metrolink North-South line is located within Kenthurst Fort.

The REKTangle

The REKTangle is a rectangular shaped building located in central Kenthurst. It contains the Judges' offices. With the High Court of Kenthurst located in the central business district, there is a need for judges to be close in proximity. The judges occupy the 2nd floor of the building, with the 1st floor being a lobby for casual and informal meetings. There is also the ASS Local Office (operated by bestmate66, of Saint Roux).

The judges consist of:
