Minecraft:ERIS
ERIS, the Erisiana Regional Inter-rail System, is the primary mass transit system serving Malaclypse and the communities surrounding it. Its main hubs are Malaclypse Station, which is on the southern edge of Confusion; and Upper Chaos Station, which is in Upper Chaos.
History
ERIS began with Confusion Station being constructed and the construction of the Purple and Orange lines. The Blue and Green lines were constructed next. Once those were completed, the construction of the Gold line began as an outer arc, leading to the creation of Upper Chaos station as a hub. When the station was completed, the Cyan line was created to serve the far eastern portions of the city, and the Blue line was terminated in the station. After the completion of North Dock station, the White line was created to Finejo, who agreed to join the ERIS system. The Pink line was subsequently created as a line to Aftermath Heights, then onwards to Kallisti.
Local Lines
ERIS owns maintains the Gold, Purple, Orange, Blue, Green, White, Cyan, and Pink lines, which run throughout Malaclypse and outlying areas.
The Purple, Orange, Blue, and Green lines all fan out from Confusion Station to nearby communities; these were part of the original system. The Gold line is an outer arc connecting outlying areas of Malaclypse. The Pink line is a spur that connects the far-western suburbs. The Cyan line acts as a spur to the far-eastern portions of the city. The White line connects Finejo and Malaclypse.
In the sections below, bold text represents terminals where travelers must stop then launch from another platform to continue. These stations usually provide transfers to other lines. At other stations, passengers must jump out to stop.

From North to South
- Upper Chaos

Pink
The westernmost line in the ERIS system, it splits off the Orange and Gold Lines to serve Aftermath Heights and Kallisti. It travels in an arc.
Interestingly, It reuses a portion of a former tunnel to Northwest Disaster after service was suspended there (until the construction of Kallisti), hence the similarity to the existing Orange Line tunnel to Disaster (which was built later but uses the remainder of the former tunnel).
In counterclockwise order
- Northeast Disaster (transfer available to Orange)
- West Kallisti
- East Kallisti
- West Beltway
- Northwest Aftermath Heights

White
This line directly connects the North Docks with North Finejo. It also has a one-way spur, W1, from Portsmouth to North Finejo.
Other Lines
ERIS maintains stations on some other lines that it does not own.
- The Mal-Rav Express, connecting Upper Chaos directly to East Hodge in Ravenhurst Province.
- The Canal Line, following the Malaclypse Interior Waterway, connects Malaclypse Station to Finejo and New Seattle, with a junction connecting to Espertio.
- The Seaside Line, following the eastern third of the MIW and the nearby coast, connects Malaclypse Station to Bay City in the Allied Empire with stops at the 8.3 sign, GWNS, and Probeland.
