The "childish looking crane" is from Industrial Stations Renewal. The artwork was originally part of the old industrial stations set which ISR inherited. I must admit though, I’m not entirely happy with it myself, but then I’m only the coder. If anyone supplies artwork for a less "childish" replacement I would happily replace it. This might cause some complaints though, as everyone one seems to like the existing crane, judging by its appearance "on nearly every picture these days".

IMO it is the iron ore mine buildings that are far too small, compared to the scale of most other buildings in TTD. Like you said earlier though, concerning the sandpit in George’s ECS, it’s tolerable as a placeholder, until some more fitting graphics are supplied.

The shed you are referring to is actually a train shed, not a storage shed.
Here’s a real one for comparison.

Another towns connected with rail servise. (Tachonolupy, Polzice, Janovy Sokice, Vysice, Karlova Vysava, Olomouc)

This railway is engaged by two BR116(E16), 5 passenger and 2 mail wagons. And because new electric trains worked well, it has been decided to electrificated others passangers railways and trains..

Yeah, those iron ore mine sheds are way too small. Nevertheless, those "train sheds" are too high as well, just take a look on that photo. Don´t you see?

It detects your maglev sprite as a connected track. I'll have to change the buffers so they only respond to connecting tracks of the same rail type.

Awesome set
But I'm not sure wether changing that is worth the trouble as I can easily thing of places where it is fine as now: elrail vs. normal rail or double terminus with different track types - which then would not look as nice as now

Let's not clutter Toch's screenshot thread anymore (sorry Toch ). I would like to move the any further discussion to the ISR thread, where I have answered the above comments.

What a fabulous day for industries on blue island, Andythenorth the director of Heavycar company decided to built Factory near Horní Panov, he bought land from local authority and started to build. Meanwhile chain of Industry have to be estabilished, so vehicle factory can by supllied.

At the begining Sand chain have been estabilished.

1st Olomouc Sand pits serviced by BR116.

2nd Coal mine near Merice also serviced by BR116

3rd Merice Glass works providing Horní Panov Vehicle Factoy with glass.

Now Steel mill chain.

1st Ore mine serviced by T499.o (kyklop)

2nd Coal Station serviced by two BR116

3rd Prachov steel mill providing Horní Panov vehicle Factory with steel.

And now the last chain, the Dyes. And finnaly Factory itself.

1st Chemical plant near Sokankov na Vltavou, taking refineds product from Manetín Rafinery and providing Dyes to Horní Panov Vehicle factory and is serviced by two T466.o [735/714].

2nd Horní Panov Vehicle factory providing heavy vehicles for all mines on blue island.

Your screenshots never fail to impress! Great work

these screens are so impressive, love what you're doing.

Thx for all positive reactions.

Really slick screenshots, especially the one of Panov steel mill.

Ok after "few" industrial stations i have decided to connect another cities with railservice. (Sokankov nad Vltavou, Prachov, Merenice, Klatovy)

1st Sokankov nad Vltavou station, on main line you can see T679.1[781], on the second line small S499.2 on its way from Polzice.

2nd Prachov have two stations one on main line (the top one) and second only for S499.2 servicing "Sokankov nad Vltavou - Prachov"

3rd Merenice had problems with lands so city council decided to build two separeted staions for both ways, there is also good bus connection betwen them.

4th Final destination Klatovy, with new local "lake train" servis.

Really impressive!

I love your screenshots! I wonder how do you make those hedges instead of the normal fences? They look terrible!

The Canadian Station Set has those hedges available as fences by setting a parameter. I think they look great especially given the little "extra" you mentioned that you have done with them.

Hmmm... I am using the Canadian Station Set, and I never noticed that parameter... Thank you.


Truely those screenies are amazing. I hope other ones come soon!

Here are sreenes from another realized train service betwen (Sedlec, Velké Sedlupy, Petrovy Prachanice, Kostelin, Malá Lhotovka) towns.
