How to progress Railroad storyline?

[olive destruction]

So i'm attempting to get done with the railroad storyline for the achievements however I can only access pointless sidequests. Just MILA'S and dead drops, do I have to keep doing these sidequests until they trigger a new quest?

Have you joined the Institute?

No, only the brotherhood, and I haven't even done the quest in which you go into the institute either, am I supposed to not be friends with the brotherhood and kill them or something? I saw a video saying you could achieve unity between the brotherhood and railroad. But if I have to destroy them i'd be totally fine with getting maxson's sweet jacket, he's not even in the airship, just next to the teleporter to the institute at the airport (which I have not gone through yet)

Joining the Institute doesn't require you to kill or be enemies with anyone, however it is a Pre-requisite to the Underground Undercover quest which is the next main story quest for the Railroad after Tradecraft.

So basically, I enter the intitute using the teleporter I built with the brotherhood and then either pretend join the institute and report their activity to the railroad or reject the institute and further help the railroad take them down.

I'll leave that up to you to find out however the Railroad questline will involve a number of Institute quests.

As for the ending, it is theoretically possible that siding with the Brotherhood under certain conditions allows you to remain friendly with the Railroad (although not vice versa). If that fails, just side with the Minutemen and make sure you are not hostile with either faction.

I think i'll just shoot Maxson in the back and get his cool as Bane coat. Then see what happens.

Ok apparently you coudn't continue railroad questline if you had already built the teleporter for someone else unless you're on bad terms with them. Shot maxson and most of the airport up and retrieved the plans from proctor ingram, now going to give them to the railroad.
