[OTTD] Metro Transit Express

[(SIR) North Shore]

This is my current and massive game using Chill's patchpack v8 that I've been playing since the summer of 2010, Metro Express. It's based largely off of the New York City-area railways and complex subway networks. It features 116 rail stations with express and local trains and feeder bus/light rail lines. There's also many different lines using letters and numbers just like in NYC.

Wow, great screenshots. Have you considered using TTRS or North American Cities to give it a more urban/metropolitan feel?

I like the layouts, but i think you could of made more effort to make the city look nicer through avenues, different GRF's open spaces etc.

But good effort.

Thanks! And that's only one small section of the map. Here's some new shots:

Damn these screenshots are incredibly nice!
I love creating huge urban areas, and these are some of the best I've seen so far.

If I were you I'd just use normal track instead of monorail, and use more different station grf's, to vary a bit.

High quality stuff, keep going!

The map used to be normal tracks but I upgraded it to the monorail eventually. Here's pics from the 1980s:
