The Dwarven Transit Authority (DTA) manages the vast majority of inter-territory Minecart stations and Nether portals. Many roads and canals are also maintained by the DTA. The DTA offers standardized and reliable long-distance transportation between most of the homes in the world. The Dwarven Space Agency operates a constellation of satellites which is used to generate the online world maps.

Travel by minecart, while slow compared to sprinting in the Nether, offers the advantage of simplicity—not to mention the ability to dine and send text messages while traveling. DTA minecart rails are located in tunnels at an altitude of approximately Y=24. The use of tunnels ensures that the rails do not encroach unduly on other players' territory. The low altitude was selected because it is beneath most natural features (i.e., water) and man-made structures.

To use the minecarts,

1. Remove a minecart from the chest located near the rail head.
2. Place the cart on the (inactive) powered rail at the end of the tracks. The end of the tracks is indicated by a block which protrudes from the floor.
3. Right-click on the cart to board it.
4. Press the button which corresponds to the direction in which you want to travel.
5. When you reach the next station in the line, continue to press buttons until you reach your final destination.
6. Once you reach your final destination, break down the minecart and place it in the minecart chest.

The following sections list each station in the DTA Minecart network. Stations are listed starting from central station at Mt. Paradox and moving in the outbound direction.

1. Mt. Paradox (jct. red, yellow, blue)

3. Einlund
4. Rio Tinto
5. Trigonography
6. Aransas

2. Ft. Gears
3. Shagariden (jct. Shikonneko rail)
4. Lady Bengal

2. Locke's Lab (commonly listed as “Gaiden/ML”)
3. Ladintha

For ease of travel, Rigil Gearwerks drew up a map of the network.

The Nether Way is a series of tunnels in the Nether that connects the homes of the players on the server together. Like all DTA constructions, the sandstone arrows lead back to Mt. Paradox.

The DTA uses standardized construction to help players navigate the world. All DTA tunnels, roads, and canals have two different directions: inbound and outbound. The inbound path leads towards Mt. Paradox, and the outbound path leads away from it. Directions are marked with the following conventions:

• Sandstone arrows: A 2×3 sandstone arrow pattern points in the inbound direction, towards Mt. Paradox.
• Torch convention: In tunnels, torches are placed only on a single wall. Keep the wall with torches on your right to head in the inbound direction.

Additionally, the DTA defines a number of standardized sign arrows. These arrows can unambiguously indicate any direction from the sign.

To return to Mt. Paradox via the Minecart system, choose the inbound direction at each decision point. To return to Mt. Paradox via the tunnels (i.e., Nether) or a road, follow the sandstone arrows.
