That airport is great, and the carpark too. But i was wondering, why are there so many cars in the car park..i mean..the station isn't exactly in the middle of a big city is it?

Well, there are a lot of passengers waiting at the airport. The airport is feeded by buses from Wil and Aarau, and the local trains running between Schaffhausen and Freiburg also stop there and feed more passengers.

EDIT: In the meantime, I did find a solution for the Schaffhausen issue. With the forest neas Spiez doubling it's production from ~400t to over 800t, I needed double the trains, which would have lead to complete chaos and many delays to the passenger services at around Schaffhausen.
So we had to construct the this bypass. It absorps about half the wood trains in both directions.

I've made a crossing which barely got any delays with 42 trains in service. Don't know if that's good, but it's enough

This is my favourite kind of junction; I designed it gradually over the past few months. I usually build it in the middle of the map, as in this case.

Yes its nice... but next time try convert Your images to .png format. As You can see .jpg mess up the color.

Ok, I'll do that.

The same goes for CPCNMAN007, use PNG, it's smaller size and better quality.

Here are some more screenies from my latest game (see few pages back).
The dock has grown a lot, and in 1978 even a northern area was build with a factory. Unfortunately, no screenshot of that (will make that soon).

Started a new game recently. Six years into the game and I've got a nice little passenger network going. And what better way to visit a network than by taking an express train along the main line.

1) Gardhead is our company's first station, the first complete line being a point to point between Gardhead and Rutburg. That line has since been lengthened to Muntbridge in the north. Here we have train 107E (1 being the line number, 7 being the train number, E indicating that it is an express) headed nonstop for Muntbridge.

2) 107E passes through a somewhat obsolete checkpoint. Benfingburg Springs has expanded considerably since game start. Originally being connected to Rutburg by doodlebug, it is now the terminus of line 2, running from Benfingburg Springs to Dronfingly Market in the northeast. You can see one of the Beinfingburg locals, 204L, pulling into the terminus.

3) Another local train, 101L, headed by a ten wheeler, pulls out of Rutburg, en route to Gardhead. 107E has turned towards the northwest, having passed through Rutburg. Passing on the left is 108E, a sister express train running in the opposite direction. It will also run nonstop through Rutburg and onto Gardhead.

Continued.

4) Bradinghattan junction sees the main line splitting into two. Line 1 from Gardhead continues on the left, while Line 2, from Benfingburg Springs, continues on the right, running through Bradinghattan and terminating at Dronfingly Market. A local train, 206L, can barely be seen stopping at Bradinghattan.

5) Finally, 107E, hidden partially by trees, arrives at Muntbridge. On the way back down to Gardhead it will run as a local, whereas 108E does the opposite, running down as an express, and up as a local. Muntbridge is the terminus of two lines: Line 1 from the south, and Line 3 from the north. The express train 312E can be seen heading up to Line 3's northern terminus.

As of the current year, Lines 1, 2 and 3 each have two express trains and two locals. All express trains only run express in one direction, running as locals back to their home station. Local trains stop at all stations.

Express trains on Lines 1 and 2 are hauled by Pacifics, locals on these lines are hauled by 4-6-0's. On Line 3, however, because it is somewhat longer than the other two lines, express trains are hauled by Mountains, whereas the locals are hauled by Pacifics.

Seems to be a sprite bug with the semaphore in BKS43004.png.

Yeah, that'd be because he's using an old version of the signals.

Lloyd, have you got the combined graphics pack from TTDPatch website? It puts all of the compulsory graphics (signals[w], trkfound[w] etc) into one GRF, which the original track-foundation graphics paramaters work for, and has the latest versions of all sprites.

I do remember that semaphore bug being fixed a long time ago by MB, so it's an old GRF 'causing the fault.

Actually, the original version of the combined grf had that bug, because I was using an older version of MB's grf. I believe Dalestan fixed the one currently on ttdpatch.net.

Lloyd Wolf · Post by **Lloyd Wolf** » 25 Oct 2006 21:48

Wow. I can't believe I didn't see that sprite bug.

I played fifteen years before I read the above posts and realized that the signals were bugged like that.

And yeah, it was probably because I was using the original version of the combined base graphics set. I downloaded the updated version and it got fixed.

im new here, but this is my first big junction (dont know if it would actually work though...):

Ameecher · Post by **Ameecher** » 26 Oct 2006 18:27

If you use software like Irfanview (which you can get free) to convert the image to PNG we don't have to download the pictures every time.

I think the complexity of that junction may be it's downfall. I mean, does it actually work?

Edit: I now will post a quick screenie of the new depots that I drew.
If anyone uses TT for Dos and also OTTD, Please PM, if you would like to test the DOS version.

Wow

they look better in game than I thought.

Purno, nice screenshot, too

it reminds me of my "network scenario".

Very nice work!

Also, is this not the sexiest DMU EVER? It's Pikka's Sprinter from the UKRS
