=== Kursbuch === | |||
Every month VB publishes the Kursbuch, which shows all connections and individual information about thte routes. These routes are numbered after the KBS-System and are known as Kursbuchstrecke. | |||
=== | === Kursbuchstrecke-Syntax === | ||
To show how the KBS Syntax works, we are gonna analyse ''VBI 3103.'' It's meaning is Inter-Continental Elevated Ice Road Number 3 operated by VB. | To show how the KBS Syntax works, we are gonna analyse ''VBI 3103.'' It's meaning is Inter-Continental Elevated Ice Road Number 3 operated by VB. | ||

=== List of Ice Roads and Railroads === | |||
Routes are numbered after the ''Kursbuchstrecke''-System (abbreviated as KBS). Every railroad and iceroad has a unique number and can be identified using this number. | |||
VB currently operates on 3 ice roads and is rebuilding/constructing 2 railroads and 2 ice roads. | |||

*KBS '''[[Mossow-New Snork Iceway|VBI 1102]] (Mossau–New Snork Iceway):''' 400 m long, 4 stations. (Opened February 2020; formerly ''ETI 1102'') | |||
*KBS '''[[Mossow–Worldborder Iceway|VBI 1103]] (Mossau–Worldborder Iceway):''' 4 km long, 3+ stations. (UNDER CONSTRUCTION) | |||
