Your Tech & Trains server, with the useful bits included.
Host your Tech & Trains server
Tech & Trains hosting with CreeperHost brings a focused Minecraft 1.16.5 experience built around technology, rail travel, automation, and practical quality-of-life improvements. Running on Forge 36.2.42, this pack combines engineering systems with tools for building, storage, power generation, farming, and transport.
Build a Tech-Focused Progression
Tech & Trains centres on Mekanism, Immersive Engineering, Powah, Solar Flux Reborn, and related additions. Create processing setups, generate power, and expand your production systems as your world develops. Refined Storage provides the pack’s primary item-storage system, while Ender Chests and Ender Tanks offer convenient ways to move items and fluids.
Mystical Agriculture adds a dependable route for gathering materials, and Industrial Agriculture integrations extend that theme through supported tech systems. Tinkers’ Construct, Iron Chests, Chargers, Fast Furnaces, and Fast Workbenches add further utility to daily crafting and resource handling.
Railways and Construction
Immersive Railroading is the pack’s transportation focus, giving your technical builds a reason to stretch across the world. Immersive Engineering is included alongside Immersive Signals, Immersive Posts, and Track API, creating a strong railway-oriented identity.
Building railway tunnels is supported by Building Gadgets, while Macaw’s Bridges, Lights, Fences, Windows, Paintings, and Trapdoors provide decorative options around stations, factories, and bases. Elevator IDs can also help connect different levels in large builds.
Helpful Everyday Features
A broad selection of quality-of-life mods makes exploration and construction more convenient. JEI, Just Enough Resources, Just Enough Professions, Enchantment Descriptions, WAILA, Waila Harvestability, Light Overlay, Controlling, Mouse Tweaks, and Better Third Person improve information, controls, and visibility.
Dark Utilities supports basic mob-farming setups, while Gravestones, Comforts, Nether Portal Fix, Trash Cans, and SwingThroughGrass add practical touches. Ambient Sounds and decorative building additions help give developed areas more character without changing the pack’s central tech-and-trains theme.
CreeperHost Tools for Your Server
CreeperPanel provides one-click installation for modpacks and updates that preserve your configuration changes. Built-in tools help you manage files, mods, settings, players, inventories, worlds, and backups, while diagnostic features can assist with investigating lag.
CreeperHost uses game-server hardware selected for strong native CPU performance and stability. DDoS protection and location choice are included, and real support staff bring experience hosting modded communities since 2011. Eligible Premium and Pro services can also use Ask Theo to inspect the current panel state and prepare safe next steps for approval.
Got questions? 
Yes. Order from a modpack page and the selected pack is ready to install. You can also change versions or choose another supported pack later from CreeperPanel.
Our pack tooling first turned a CurseForge client pack into a server on 31 March 2017, long before generative AI entered the picture. Built by experienced members of the modded Minecraft community, it works out which files a dedicated server needs, automatically detects known client-only mods before they get in the way, and prepares the right Minecraft, modloader, and launch setup. It also watches pack starts: if one crashes, the failure is automatically reported to our team so we can see what actually happened and improve the handling. Automation is only the first line. When a pack needs its own fix or setup step, our team can build one rather than forcing everything through the same rigid template.
Yep. CreeperPanel lets you search for and install extra mods, then update, enable, or disable them alongside the rest of the pack. It checks the Minecraft version and modloader and warns you about known client-only mods. Mods can still disagree with each other, because modded Minecraft, but you get proper tools and real people to help rather than a folder full of mystery files.
CreeperPanel is built around real modded servers, including update paths that aim to preserve user configuration changes where supported instead of treating every update like a fresh install.
Yes. SaveGuard keeps automatic world backups on separate backup storage, away from the machine running your server, without using your allocated server disk. It stores only what changed between saves, so even losing the whole game node would not take the protected worlds with it.
If your world still exists when the service ends, Save Your World keeps a copy for up to a year. Come back later and you can restore it to a new service in one click, picking up where you left off.
Eco can work for lighter packs, but Premium is the recommended CreeperHost range for modded Minecraft. Premium gives stronger hardware, Turbo Start, Bonus Memory, and Ask Theo where enabled.

Our pack automation has been built and improved by experienced members of the modded Minecraft community since 2017; AI helps us describe that enormous catalogue, it does not make the server packs.
