 +====== Commit History ======
 +It has been decided through a [[https://forum.minetest.net/viewtopic.php?p=416578#p416578|forum post]] that any //significant// changes are to be reported in the [[https://blog.minetest.net/2022/10/14/September/|Minetest Blog]] and for this section to be replaced by a "Blog and Environment Summary" (the first trial of which is below), the newsletter gradually becoming more of a place to learn how to build rather then to gain updates from the community, save the rare conference or two.

 +  * Xenon release Mesetrains, a line of new rolling stock designed to compete with Moretrains's "Japanese train". These trains feature colour-coding for lines, which is a novel feature to the high-speed train series, no doubt taking heavy inspiration from the very old subway wagons.
 +  * Advtrains has experienced a drastic rise in usage since the 2010s, becoming more and more of a mod servers generally have. This is great!
