Finally got around to wrapping up my second playthrough on "Power Mad"...

EDIT: Game is uploaded here: http://www.tt-forums.net/viewtopic.php?p=455974#455974

Continued.

Here we see a Bombardier "Voyager" - "Bristol Voyager" - waiting at a red signal as it's Electric companion, the Alstom "Pendolino" "Pride of Stoke-On-Trent", crosses over the points to head East.

A lone BR321 EMU trundles down the East Downline.

All this takes place under the sight of Dewton Marshalling Yard, where we see the ancient EE 10000s at the head of decomissioned mineral wagons and brake vans respectively. This is the highlight of the yard, but there is much action going on.

Next to the two EE 10000s, we see a small collection of decommissioned freight wagons, next to a brand new 67, 67094, which is at the head of a long conflat consist.

In the last shed, we see the head of another BR321, which is sitting directly opposite 56009 Type 5 at the head of assorted brand new wagons.

Next to this, we see a long line of polybulk wagons, putting into shadow a 91 that is in for maintenance.

On the through line of the yard, we see two long freights waiting for the passenger trains to die down at around 7:30pm before heading off to their destinations. On the downline, 67034 class 67 is at the head of a long tanker train. On the upline, the out of shot 67011 class 67 is heading an equally long polybulk train.

(All the train numbers are fictitious, and those carriages "without" a train... it's not something special, it's just that you can't see them intentionally

. This picture was made possible by Pikka's BRILLIANT v3 beta of his UKRS. Enjoy it

Snazzy.

BTW, under TOPS, the first two digits of a locomotive's number are its class (first three digits for a MU). That's the easiest way to work out what class something is in reality if you don't know.

Additionally, the first digit of a diesel locomotive's class is its old Type number, with a few exceptions (Class 20 is a Type 1, Class 31 is a Type 2, and everything from 60 up is a Type 5, because that's the highest Type number).

Here's a few pics of my latest game. Its done on a custom map, which I designed. If you want the map it can be found on the OTTD forum, Here.

I am quite proud of this map, it has a nice feel to it. There are tourist towns on the north coast, with a railway line connecting them, a lovely scenic river and busy industrial towns to the east and south.

Um, what are those white tankers hauled by the AC8000s? Honestly, I've never seen them before.

Hmm? I don't have any tunnels.

Ah, Sanchimaru forgot to mention eis_os' tunnels in his last screenshot post.

EDIT: Nevermind. I now know they are just modern water tankers.

OK, I think it is time to post some screenies as well from my game.

I was inspired by Jamesvassies "Trough The Tube" project on OpenTTD and I felt the urge to replay my "Ile de France" scenario. With the recent developments it is possible to make it a little bit more realistic at least. Namely irregular stations help A LOT for such things.

Here are a couple of impressions. I will make a real story later...

Starting with the big Train Stations:

Second and last for now. Gotta see the football now.

Nice metro lines

Btw, I have always thought why are you using my japanset grass as it's very unfinished.

And now some "see you soon screenies" from me as I'll be away for a while - three weeks in Spain

. If I can find a computer with an internet, I'll visit here.

The Irish · Post by **The Irish** » 21 Jun 2006 21:02

Nice screenies from you as well. Thanks for sharing.

What do you mean with the japangrass being "unfinished"? I think it is quite ok.
I like it, because it is not so bright then the standard TTD grass.

Jezulkim · Post by **Jezulkim** » 22 Jun 2006 07:56

Unfinished: look at the grass under rails or road, it's different than grass without rails or road. Tunnel is not coded, and maybe some other parts are not coded too.

it's all finished and working fine in the japan set...

Ok, more impressions from that game.

This picture shows the double viaduct of Marne la Vallee. The speciality of those is, that not as usually one for each direction. These are both used bi-directionaly with northern one being for the Express and locals from Ferte Gaucher to MLV, Roissy, Gare de l'Est as well as Gare du Nord.
The southern viaduct is for the Metro line from Ferte Gaucher towards Nogent s/ Marne and Gare de l'Est.

This setup leads to some interesting situations, where you for example can see an ET-87 on the Metro service being overtacken by an ET-11 on the Express service to Ferte Gaucher.

However, with recent increase in traffic, especially on the northern viaduct, there might soon be a need to build a third one.

I already wonder how I'm gonna explain that to the local council

May I ask you for the config and savegame?

The Irish · Post by **The Irish** » 23 Jun 2006 18:39

Another one.

This shows the recently grown Station of Marne la Vallee

at the very bottom, we have the terminus tracks for the locals from Gare de l'Est.
then follows the Metro line and then the trough tracks for the locals and express trains from Gare de l'Est to Ferte Gaucher.

Then we have a single track terminus for the Metro line from Roissy and two trough platforms for the locals and Express trains to Roissy and Gare du Nord.

the great master is asking me for my savegame. What an honor...

Here it is. Let me know if you need any of the older grfs that I might have activated ingame...

Some more somewhat expansive and ugly looking junctions from another game...

Lloyd Wolf · Post by **Lloyd Wolf** » 27 Jun 2006 04:10

More...

The Person · Post by **The Person** » 27 Jun 2006 11:48

Long since last time I built any real complicated junctions, which is what I like most in this game. But here goes, this is the biggest junction in my current game, which I managed to place in the worst place possible, namely next to a cluster of farms which of course are serviced. But as I said this is what I love this game for.
