We don't really need signals between switches, we just need single direction signal, as well as an 'S curve or adapter track to make passing sidings on single track. As my computer sits, it won't run TG. TG looks like an awesome game, but I'll wait until the reviews start coming in before I think about trading in my TTD.

For gods sakes, cowpat! type properly!
Note to whoever it was who said that the station/locos were out of proportion, cargo platforms often are that size... : where's the buildings though?

Various engines present themselves in standardized company paintwork. So this is what a station could look like if the player chose this particular paint coat.

true,
if you follow the forums at transportgiant.com, the track is 4 way (can be build in four directions, comppared to ttds

You mean 4 ways as opposed to TTDs 4 and 4 halves. the other 4 directions in TTD are unusable as hills can't be climbed with them, bridges cannot go over them, and stations cannot be built in those directions. As far as I can see the additional 4 directions in TTD are purely there to make up for the lack of real curves. TG has real curves (inclusing some S-bends) and so the additional 4 directions, unless there are stations and tunnels in those directions, are obselete.
