Some screenshots of my current game. Started in 1910, using NARS, JapanSet, and some other things.

1. The junction just outside Brighton is one of the busiest on the network, mostly because it's one of the few junctions which see significant freight traffic. It was rebuilt recently to reduce the number of conflicting train movements, but will almost certainly have to be rebuilt again in the near future. Trees have been hidden to better show the (messy) layout.

2. Crab Orchard is another significant interchange. Three lines terminate in the main station, with a fourth, narrow gauge line using a separate station to the north. Although it may appear to be a through station, the only through trains are expresses, hence the signals at the "back" of each platform.

Very nice. Where does that seemingly important narrow gauge line go ?

Where does that seemingly important narrow gauge line go ?

The line isn't quite as important as you might think. The narrow gauge network was originally going to be much more extensive, but in the end it got truncated to 3 stations; Crab Orchard, Madison, and Fulton/St. Clair, as well as some minor freight service.

1. Madison. One of the larger towns on the map, it is still relatively underserved.

2. Fulton and St. Clair. Due to the inconvenient terrain, only Fulton has a rail link, while St. Clair has to make do with buses to Fulton, as well as an aging ferry service to Carlisle, the largest city on the map.

3. And a shot of Carlisle for good measure. Its small railway station is the terminus of a commuter line, connecting the residents to a larger station further south.
