- The station of Dannenberg is one of the biggest in my actual game. The industries haven't been there from the start, I had to found them. Now this is the ending point of my main cargo line. There are express trains which connect both ending points.

OK, several months left since my last post. But hey, the summer is here and so I am... I played around a little bit with the newhouses-project an TTRS. I think these Screenies are some of the best I've ever made. I hope, you'll enjoy them as much as I do. Here we go...
P.S.: The pictures have been taken from late 50s to early 60s. I use the "build on pause"-option in my games. Maybe you consider this cheating, but I like to make use of all the potential of DBSetXL on a really huge map (2048*2048)l. If I'd play without the option, I would be out of time just after finishing the first coast-tocoast railroad or the tracks woul just look like the ones from all the maglev-guys. And I think that style is lame...

- Bielehausen is the city where everything started with a small local route to the next city. I ever build my HQ in the city I'd start.

- Südbrücken is the southern metropolis and part of a huge metroplex build from a cluster o four cities. The cities are connected by a metro, a bus-system and regional services. Oh, by the way, those goods from the factory are delivered to this city.

Re: [OTTD] DonRazzis Random Screenies...
OK, for several month I've posted not a single screenie, but here we go. These screenies are from my latest game and I make use of much of the advanced features in the nightly. There are trams, there are new buildings and I've played araound a little bit with balancing and configuration:
I play with low city-density and very low industry-density. Also cities are growing slowly, but one city out thirty had the chance to become a metropolis at the beginning of the the game. The effect of this configuration is just brilliant: The game builds a nice map at the beginning with cities and villages. The cities will become hubs, while the villages stay villages during the game with only slight growth. That way I'd say, this game is the most realistic TTD-game I've ever played.
First, we will travel on the „Küstenhochbahn“ from Frankhaven to Klein Eichenmünster. It's one of the oldest lines in the game, established only a few years after I started the company. That's why my Headquarter resides at Klein Eichenmünster. The line is part of a larger westcoast route, and always has been electrified. This is why still in 1962 there are many old coaches and trains on the track... But here we go.

- Frankhaven. This is where our journey starts. A VT 12.5, Trans Europ Express Mercator is just arriving, while a local train pulled by a class E 44 is leaving. The local train is built with some of the oldest rolling stock in the game. While the original class E 62 have been replaced, this didn't affect on the rolling stock. So some of this waggons are over 30 years old...

- D 166 Frankhaven-Essen is carrying a very colourfull parade of rolling stock. Old „Hechtwagen“ are combined with new TEE-carriages, and last not least first class is built by blue F-Zug-Coaches.

- One of the smaller local stops is Wolfsfurt an der Spree. On this picture an ET-87 is just arriving at the station. This EMUs have been added in the 1930s to the line and are very popular to the passengers because they're slightly faster than the class E 44 and the coaches are a little bit more modern.

- Here we are: Klein Eichenmünster. This is where the „Küstenhochbahn“ ends. An E 10 in it's original blue livery just arrived pulling F 141 Westwind. The train came all the long way from Offenbrück and now it prepares for the last part of it's journey. In Klein Eichenmünster the „Küstenhochbahn“ meets the „Dreiseenbahn“. On this line you'll still find BR 38 operating, the former Prussian P 8.

Very nice screenshots, I like the recycling of old stock that you do and also the realistic layouts that you create despite there being no PBS. Keep 'em coming!

Yes, you're right, some of the tiles from that durch set remind me much of LEGO-bricks (tm)...

A journey with IC 137 Hanseat
Good morning, DonRail welcomes all passengers on IC 137 Hanseat on it's journey from Freihaven to Quedlinhorst...
It's late summer 1972 and DonRail is in an era of big changes: The steam age will soon come to an end and new powerfull electric- and diesel-engines are availiable. The Hanseat-Line is one of the most important routes in the web of DonRail - and also one of the best equipped: Our train IC 137 Hanseat is pulled by a very new BR 112 and offers new air-conditioned coaches - including a wagon restaurant and a dome car. I invite you to travel allong with the train. Take a seat, sit back and relax...

- Freihaven is the northern terminus in the DonRail web. While the northern and southern tracks are electrified, westbound trains are still pulled by steam locos - their days are counted.

- Our first stop is Lünestadt. Keep a look at the small branch line in the north. It follows the firth till it reaches the ocean. Those steam trains are told to be replace by modern railcars very soon.
