The ECIR (Eastern Canada Ice Rail) is an old name for the ice highway system run by ii_adzasc that currently is called MECA Rail. Many lines are being built to MECA and GMFP towns but only ones that are feasible for extensions. MECA Rail will serve 6 provinces (Newfoundland & Labrador, Quebec, Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, Ontario, and Manitoba), 1 territory (Nunavut) and even go into the US (North Carolina, Minnesota, North Dakota). A Bermuda station is also planned on the line to North Carolina. MECA Rail used to follow a system where each line would be a letter. Only A line and B lines were planned until the lettered lines were shortly renamed to being colors. MECA Rail is an ice highway that uses soul sand for ascending and damage-free falling for boats descending. This had to be implemented due to magma blocks not working properly to descend. Systems has been changed to be at 1 Y level in Keewatin
