That's not too bad, sizewise, imho. Maybe it'd look even more natural with the TTRS?

It's not TTD-ish style, but it's awesome. :)

Here's an idea: you could learn to code!

It's still WIP, so it can't be coded :P

Next Sunday evening version upcoming, now with more... translucency ;) - and a graphic from the "original" for comparison purposes...

Wow, just wow. This is getting more impressive as you work on it. I think that if the blue tinge of the windows was changed to the purpleish-grey of the original TTD variety, it might look a little closer to the ingame graphics. :)

Thanks for the nice words from all of you.

@asthat: Yes, you did, but you probably didn't know that it would look better /that/ much ;)

Here I've made something "small", before continuing work on the Lehrter station. Without the forecourts and made shorter it can be used as a secondary inner-city station in a metropolis (I'm thinking of S-Bahn or something), with the lower-level forecourts it looks a little bit like the "JENA Paradiesbahnhof", the city where I live(d) in.

I'm missing the nice, small, old station building. Did they knock it down while reconstructing the station? (haven't been there for a while)
I kinda liked the old station with single platform in the middle...

Greetings from further down the river... ;)

No, it's still there. It's just not longer "the" Paradiesbahnhof... IIRC, now there is an imbiss or a restaurant inside.

I've omitted the station building because I considered to make just a "modern stations set", and this little house would not fit into the set.
If you want it nevertheless... maybe I can do something for you... would be a challenge to reproduce it for TTD :D ... but just perhaps.

btw: You really also live in a city at the Saale? The world seems to be very small... ;)

Not only a city at the Saale, the biggest city along the river (namely Halle). And I actually studied in Weimar and had a girlfriend in Jena for half a year. :D

(Sorry, Raichase, for being off topic...)

Funny, via Halle my trains always go when I'm travelling home... yet I've seen only the train station of Halle, unfortunately not the city itself :D

Well, I've lived there for quite some time as well, and I must say the train station is a rather beautiful one (or better, it has become one in the last few years). Any chance of seeing some other German stations in a set some day?

Yeah, I've thought about drawing the main stations of Halle, Leipzig, Dresden, etc. for some time but I haven't had the time yet, and based on my little drawing experience I will probably need a lot of time to get it as good as for example the Canadian stations.
But maybe some time in future I'll come up with something. :)

Having available Callback 30 for stations as well would be very helpful to have elevated tracks, like e.g.

> Dresden

or - most famous - Berlin Friedrichstrasse.

Other than that, there“s not much use in having that kind of stations.

well, you could build it on slopes, and then below have the station building, creating the effect as in Red*Star's post.
I do that quite often, actually.
