Why not use new fake names corresponding to real tram manufaturing companies?

Do you know any major manufacturers? It would add this set some character.

Brush was a famous manufacturer back in the day...

So things like Broom? :lol:

Also Anslado have made a lot of British Trams.

(EDIT: We do, of course, have Floss in place of Brush, who was also a trani manufacturer and the manufacturer of the Class 47 of which there is a train based upon in TTD)

And it makes road vehicles more usable:D Also articulated busses are requied also :idea:

The problem is spare vehicle slots, i believe each articulated vehicle needs two slots. 80 freight road vehicles slots are available, plus some will be used up for trams. Is this correct?

It's not a case of slots at all. One Articulated vehicle will only take up 1 RV Id no matter how many parts it has.

Edit: Is this set in single CC or 2CC?

Well OTTD does have its source code available, thus increasing the vehicle ID limit is not impossible, but not necessarily easy.
