Looks good as usual Strongbow. but it sure is a boxy lookin' thing. I'm still jealous, tho, of you all in other countries then the US because you all have cooler lookin' trains. All we have is Amtrak and their trains are boring. I'd surely enjoy riding a Thaly's or FYRA type train out here but doubt they'd ever have one here. The cheap b*stards.

It does look the goods strongbow! And tattoo, I'd love to have some of the cool trains you have in the states here in Australia, but all we get it a 30 year old British HST based thing, that was previously used by Noah to bring animals to the ark... It's ancient!! Oh, and Queensland has the tilt trains, but they are hardly revolutionary!!

Looks great.... Alas the states are not electric train friendly.... Researching pics to model is too time consuming when My imagination just fills to much time...

Hello. This is a very nice sceneario you made! I am going to Vysoké Tatry in a few days and besides hiking I am planning to take a ride with zubačka and several other vehicles. However, for some reason I cannot build buses, although they are present when I am looking in the sceneario editor. Am I doing something wrong?

Also, did you consider creating cabs for pozemná lanová dráha from Starý Smokovec to Hrebienok? It would be awesome to build track like the real one and make the two cabs meet in the middle. :)

By the way, does anybody have some nice save from this sceneario? I would like to see what the others did. :)

Hi Illioplius, regarding the buses - maybe they are not available in the year you are trying to build them?

I was thinking about the lanova draha cabs, but unfortunately there is no way to create a crossover on a hill in Lomo in order to have the cabs meet in the middle of the track.

Hi Illioplius, regarding the buses - maybe they are not available in the year you are trying to build them?

I checked this and they should be available.

I was thinking about the lanova draha cabs, but unfortunately there is no way to create a crossover on a hill in Lomo in order to have the cabs meet in the middle of the track.

That is right, but that can be avoided – for example by building that section on the flat land or by building just a single track for one cab.

[Illioplius]

Oh, never mind the buses, I found it out. They were not allowed in the settings. :)

[strongbow]

Also, there is no possibility to create stations on hills. I think the cabs would look strange on a level piece of track (crossovers and stations).

[Illioplius]

Regarding stations, you can design them like buildings inside whose the cab will go so the cab won't be visible while in the station (as well as the actual pozemná lanovka).

Amazing to see this project come back to life. Excited for more!

[strongbow]

Here is my 2021 update pack, includes new GTW trains and trams. I have sent it to Owen as well so he can upload it to the Locomotion Depot along with my other packs.

Have fun and see you again in a couple of years.

I am so sincerely thankful for your return, thank you so much for coming back and adding on to the pack.
Wish that you could have stuck around for a while (and possibly made some more Company Colours assets), but I know that Locomotion isn't as big as it once was. Only about 10 people still browse this section of the forums.

Farewell, Strongbow. you were one of the greatest Locomotion modders of all time. Your content was high quality and detailed. See you next time!

[strongbow]

Thank you, I appreciate it a lot. It's sad that interest in the game has dwindled. I was hoping OpenLoco could revive it a bit, but unfortunately it doesn't really seem like it.

There is more trains I would like to do in the future, but it seems I'll be almost the only one playing with them.

I still play, visit the forum and continue to create a mod every now and then. Problem I have is getting permissions for the .s file. I've created buildings and industries using Train Sim Modeler and shared them with a little success. I too was hoping openloco would renew the interest. I also think that at it's height the players wanted too many mods and when modders didn't provide those players left. Keep up the good work, I'll DL the update and give them a try.
