Stage 1: Buying up the land for the new alignment and beginning of the tunnelling. Stage 2: temporary closure of Sabinov station with the local trains additionally calling at Vrable via the now re-doubled link line (which has also been electrified) and a bus service now linking the two towns. Stage 3: At the south end of the new alignment, the "fast" lines are connected allowing the connection to the old route to be severed which would enable the connection of the "slow" lines in the stage stages.

Stage 4: The old route is now disconnected. A link from the slow lines to the main line to the South (exiting bottom right here) is still required to allow segregation of slow trains and fast trains on the new alignment and the severed link line from this route to the old alignment will form a new curve to the freight line to the South West (exiting bottom of the screen).
The station at Sabinov can be rebuilt once the old link line passing Sabinov Woods has been removed. Stage 5: Job Done.

Nice alterations.

Yes. Good changes in the railway infrastructure.

You ended up with a very nice sollution

Thank you for sharing all parts of the story with us!
It's nice to see screenshots in this way

Treehuggers won't be happy me thinks.

Also, you have 2 iron mines in there, connected to the network. Both go different directions, why is that?

They don't go in opposite directions. The Vrable mines station wasn't rebuilt in the overall rebuild so trains have to reverse to enter and exit the station. I have subsequently dedicated one of the bridges to be a head shunt with the line from Sabinov to Vrable being single track over the bridges. Due to the low number if trains using that line and the constant requirement for reversals to access the yard this was more efficient.

Nice touch!

Ah. Didn't notice that. Thanks!

A shot of my current game. The wider San Moritz area with the Steel Mill, container terminal and train maintenance depots as well as the main station. Enjoy.

Awful. Worst thing I've ever seen.

Nah I'm just joking. Epic.

Although it does show a few problems with overgrown tracks (I assume that that's what it is). imo.

Yes. a good screenshot. Railway stations perfectly made

Yes but I can't work out how to turn it off as part of the hard patch pack. Nevermind, it's all good fun.

Like the steel mill in a realistic urban setting.

Thanks, how about a larger area view?

It looks cool. All visible - station, rail crossings. Beautifully

the steelmill in urban area is not unrealistic: in Luxembourg, there's (old) huge steelmills by Arbed (now known as ArcelorMittal, biggest steel company in the world) in the south:



great screenshots btw!

He didn't say they were unrealistic dear

I used to live in one of the biggest urban sprawls in the UK outside London - and my garden backed onto a foundry!

Yep, the way that steel mills and other industries appear in the middle of nowhere in TT variants is what is less than realistic!
