The Transcontinental Ice Rail (TCIR) is a ice rail route connecting continents on EMC in the overworld. With the length of approximately 26 kilometer, from James Shoal (Hong Kong) to Red_Moscow (Russian Empire). It provide high speed and time saving transportation between Asia and Europe without teleportation. It’s the longest ice rail on the entire server, and now it’s even planning to go further to the US and Australia. And it also became a new way for mayors to search for new players in these days. The founder – evanhou said “When the teleport is broke, TAKE THE ICE RAIL!!!”
Due to the Turmoil Era of the server, all the service is currently out and will be back once it's over. evanhou will quit the server till the Turmoil Era is ended and the patrol will conduct by the satellite once a month.

Important History
07.Jul.2019 evanhou started the construction
16.Aug.2019 The China-Mongolia section is done.
17.Oct.2019 evanhou officially start it's Ice rail shop business at Changsha and Ponsacco.
09.Feb.2020 The Siberia section is done. First stage of construction complete.

28.Mar.2021 The 1.16 server update is done and the render distance became further, which means you can travel on the ice rail at full speed again.
18.May.2021 evanhou made a discord of the TCIR group, and decide to make plan for the further route.
Construction
Start of the construction
TCIR started its construction on 8.July.2019 (two days after evanhou first join the server) permitted by XxSlayerMCxX (the mayor of Changsha). 4 days into construction, the first section of the ice rail was completed on 11.July.2019 (The day before Qin disband), connecting Changsha and XianYang (1.2 kilometer).
Mongolia section and Macau Section
After Qin disband, Han took over China, the Mongolia section and Macau section was permitted by Shia_Chan (Empress). Soon after, the Mongolia section was completed and the Macau section was put in hold due to Macau mayor’s opinion.
Siberia section
The whole project was in hold for about three weeks in search of further permission and gathering materials. On 27.Aug.2019, the Trans-Siberia section was permitted by Manchuria Infrastructure Team (MIT) and started its construction right away. Took only 2 days (30 hours of work) the 14 kilometers Trans-Siberia section was “temporary” done(only one lane of ice and cobblestone wall on one side, no pillars for climbing) on 28.Aug.2019, it’s total length was added up 18 kilometers and became the longest ice rail route on the entire server.
The construction later slow down due to the start of the school. The ice rail is heavily griefed by players which made the construction even more slower cuz fixing the griefs took up all of the time. This phenomenon wasn’t stopped until Slayer became the Mod and be able to roll back all the grief.
In December, the construction was nearly stopped due to evanhou’s college entrance exam. But thanks to Slayer, the pillars and another lane of the ice rail was able to keep on going for 3 kilometers. And the rest of the part is later been completed by evanhou. On 9.Feb.2020 The Transcontinental Ice Rail Asia-Eastern Europe Section was finally fully completed, and the whole server receive the following message “After nearly half year of hard work The Transcontinential Ice Rail Asia—Eastern Europe section (start from Changsha(Han) to Ponsacco(Tzarist_Russia))is finally complete. The trip is nearly 20km and takes less than 10mins GG!!!”
South China Sea section
The construction of South China Sea section is already permitted. But the construction was put into hold again cuz evanhou is busy working on the Changsha subway. The server is also being laggy and make the ice rail became useless, make it seems unnecessary to continue any construction.
Afterward, lei_she create a town called "James_shoal", and he's willing to take over the construction of the South China Sea section. And the progress was finally be able to move on after nearly 4 months of holding. The construction start around 20.Jun.2020 and it is completed in Augest 2020
China Section Improvement
Since the server became laggy, Ice rail became useless. But many people still using it to travel between towns. To decrease the danger and improve the experience, evanhou decided to improve the entire section by filling all the gap between ices in the tunnels and add smooth stone slab to the side of the lane. The construction start from 12.Jul.2020 and it's planned to improve the section from Macau to Northern Mongolia.
Future plan
Now further planning is working in progress. Second stage of construction planned to reach Australia and the third stage of construction planned to reach the North America. Second stage of construction will soon be launch once the server is back on a stable condition.
