I want to make a set of common trams in germany. Therefore i want to replace the monorail with pseudo-tramtracks.

Any ideas which vehicles to use therefore?

Well, what kind of rolling stock do you want?
I'm an expert with the Boston, Massachusetts underground trolley/streetcar system.

That is not so important. Here are pictures of often used trams in europe. http://www.topcardkiado.hu/lista.php?ka ... &nyelv=qen

very very nice

I can't wait to give this a try (even though I woun't be seeing buses drive over the tracks )

Unless you use bus sprites as tram trains

only think you can't do is letting vehicles use both tram tracks and normal roads.

Hey, that's a Hungarian site!
However, I haven't got a clue why he didn't put our good old UVs and others in the site. Lemme give you something.

Yes, so many (and even more!) people use the tram in Budapest.

probably indeed / I hope

let's what will be there in future, but my tracks are almost finished.

I have been waiting for someone to create a Tram/light rail system . I just hope that it would be compadible with the US set.

How I just love those good old yellow carris trams from my town of lisbon... pity there are only 3 lines left nowadays

Have you seen this topic? Czech team is working on trams too, but it't discussion how to implement electrified roads.

I think these roads can't be added without code modifications and without overwriting the existing tracks.
The czech trams are quite nice, but I am using a normal gauge of the tracks and I hope the trains can use the normal rails as well.

yes it will.

looking good!

keep up the bril work!

HOLY GUACAMOLE!!!!! THAT'S GREAT

I can't wait to try this out (I just hope it works in openttd ).

And I like to see the Ai get it's buses blown up so no problem LOL

PS: suggestion, remember that the trams need to have the same speed as buses to be realistic IMHO

Look's great!! I really like the way the road makes a "loop" to create the 2 lines.

BTW, what are you doing about signals? Anything special?

I can't change the signals, because they would be used for all other rail types, too.

E:// Although an abuse of semaphores is possible.

Is there a listing of what trams will be advalible in this mod? Also, what year would the first tram be advalible for this mod?

I would suggest adding in the trams that were in LA during the 1930s, known as the Pacific Electric Railway. The MBTA also had a few trams in it's rolling stock history. Currently they are still being used on the "T"'s Greenline.

Pacific Electric Railway




MBTA Trams/PCC cars (Greenline)

It probably won't happen, but I would love to see some Blackpool trams
