- Many thanks to those who gave inspiration and/or tips, especially those regarding 32bpp colors and translucency!!

*Features:

- Non-track Stations:
V001
Zwolle, frontview/backview
Zwolle, underground entrance, frontview/backview, with/without buffers & roof connections
Zwolle, curved roof extensions, glass/no glass
Roosendaal, main building (Modular: part-1 to part-6)
Roosendaal, fountain on/off
Roosendaal, bikeshed

- Island Stations:
V001
Zwolle, canopy, glass/no glass facade
Zwolle, canopy, elongation
Lelystad, platforms, 2x7 (place on elevated tracks)
Lelystad, platforms, 4x7 (place on elevated tracks)
Use these in combination with Non-track Lelystad to complete the station

- Single Sided Platforms:
V001
Zwolle, curved roof, glass/no glass, front & back
Roosendaal, platform roof, skylight/no skylight, front & back

- Non-track Tiles:
V001
Platform with ramp, front & back
Footpaths, front/back/middle

- Buffer Stops:
V001
Bufferstop with ramp (various versions)

- Overlapping Tiles:
V001
Zwolle, canopy, glass/no glass facade
Zwolle, canopy, elongation
In reallife Zwolle has 3 tracks under its canopy, with the middle being a non-stop drive-thru track, with these you can make that.

- Stations with Tracked and Non-track Tiles:
V001
Roosendaal, Locomotive Depot
Really happy with this one!! Took me a long time to figure out the code, but so glad I got Silverx50's fantastic graphics reserved path aware!!

- Non-track Stations for Elevated Tracks:
V001
Lelystad
Place this non-track facade on groundlevel in front of the elevated platforms of Lelystad to complete the station

- Waypoints:
V001
Roosendaal, seinhuis (signalbox)
Transition, gravel to grass

Enjoy!! ;-)

Too bad that depot can't actually be used as one hmm... could you maybe make some station tiles that can be added to the end of this large depot station that could overlap another tile where the real depot is or something like that?

The very top is high enough to hide a normal small depot but a lot of track sets add slightly bigger depots which can't be fully hidden by this.

That's actually a thing i would always have loved : custom depots.

It's pretty conceivable that a depot like that would have outlying sheds for other purposes, so dress it up fancy with some sidings and an elongated depot of your choosing.

Making custom depots by using overlapping tiles is something I have considered and will probably make in the future (with depots that you can find in The Netherlands).
By the way, just in case you didnt know already, there is a GRF that does that, Modular Locomotive Sheds: https://www.tt-forums.net/viewtopic.php?f=26&t=48605
It has modern and old looking graphics that can overlap a depot.
Maybe some of these look nice in combination with the large depot station, so you dont have to wait on me to develop some, as that may take a long time (as I am busy with reallife work at the moment and also have other things I would like to include in the set that have more priority for me ;-)

)

If I ever get to making overlapping depots, then I dont think I will start with the large depot station of Roosendaal though, but with some that are easier to offer in multiple modular pieces, like the wagonworks in Amersfoort:

As you can see, that has a more repetitive style of architecture, making it easier to offer it in loads of small pieces, so you can make the building as small or large as you want (and then also with some overlap pieces to cover up an actual depot, like the MLS-set does)

So, its on my idea list, just very very low on it ;-)

For the moment, see if the MLS-set works for you.

Yeah I know about the MLS and I already use them. I mean SPECIFICALLY something that matches that awesome big depot station you built here. Specifically for that.

If you ever add that, that'd be cool

If I had ANY clue how to properly do it I'd put some code in my game version that allows station tiles for depots but I have no real idea how that should ideally work yet. But may at some point I'll try something like that

Well, I shared almost all my knowledge (step-by-step, with index and loads of examples) about coding stations with GarryG over at Simuscape:
http://www.simuscape.net/simutalk/viewtopic.php?f=85&t=859
Note that registration and a first post to prove that you are not a bot is required.
This, together with the wiki that has more extensive explanations about the Actions and Properties regarding coding stations: https://newgrf-specs.tt-wiki.net/wiki/Main_Page may help you on your way....

Also note that it may be handy in this case to cover up depots in the way the MLS-set does, so that the overlap goes directly to the top and not to the left or right of the tile like I usually do, this will limit the chance of getting clipping/glitching issues.
