Also, on a more serious note, I'm looking to create large subterranean paths connecting the main spawns and any significant locations like the Inn, etc.
I'm talking a 5-wide, 3+ tall tunnel with rails. Now I just need some RP as an excuse. 
Make a clan of builders dedicated to the trade of offering easier transportation routes - maybe you could call it the pathconstructers, or the tunneldiggers, or hell idk maybe the roadbuilders?
Plunge was a town built as a giant hole decending to bedrock. One would jump from the bridge stretching overtop into the fountain below to reach the bottom (hence the name 'plunge'), and float up a pillar of water falling from the bridge's central structure to get in and out respectively. Houses or enclaves were built into the sides of the hole on multiple levels to maximize space usage and offer a comfortable feel. I lived there only for a short while, but the town was very trust-based as there were no VIP plots (considering it was a vertical town).
Unfortunately, do to reasons currently forgotten by myself (I knew once though, maybe ask geckosquid) the main group of town members moved on to Zaun before ragequit griefing and being banned. This left the town abandoned for several weeks as geckosquid passed on mayorship to a rather inactive player of a (once again) forgotten name. Eventually, the town fell due to lack of taxes paid and everybody who ever knew Plunge cried a silent tear.
I miss this town, the only one that would accept me after being branded a spy falsely by fashionmonkey and being kicked out of Midgar. It is a shame the main town members couldn't put up with this server anymore as I was just getting to know them :/
More recently, TehCthulu attempted to create a town know as The Pit - a similar themed, yet desert-oriented hole in the ground. Unfortunately, the town application could not gather enough members as at this point in 2.0 most players were set in their comfy towns.
