MBTA Transportation Set  1.0

About This File

First off I would like to give credit to Oppie and bigredfish for there models.

 

Oppie for the Bus and Monorail

bigredfish for passanger and subway/el trains.

 

I merely Reskinned them to look like MBTA.

 

Boston's Subway was the first in the United states. "America's First Subway"

 

This set includes..

 

An EL train set (The Red Line)

A Subway Train set (The Orange Line)

A Passanger Rail set (Purple Line)

A Bus set (Yellow Line, and yes it replaces the original)

 

and finnaly a fictional "Black Line" Monorail train.

 

Do not install any other Bus (That replaces the original as

the yellow line bus does), Monorail, El Train, Or Passanger rail mod while

using this. It could mess your game up and I can not be held responsible (nor simtropolis) for damages to your game.

 

There are better screenshots in the zip.

 

Enjoy and please leave all comments and suggestions.

Thanks, i uploaded the wrong file. Its not a big deal, it just inluded the roadtop transit mod and didnt include the readme. So just delete the roadtop mod file if you stuck it in or if you like it keep it :\.

Maybe, but i first just made these for my own personal use, and i liked the redline more then the orange, and since i hardly saw the subway trains i made the redline the el train, and orange the subway.

Hehe, nice set, but shouldn't the bus be Silver since MBTA now has the Silver Line as their bus rapid transit service?

The silver line acts as almost a shuttle to and from certain subway stops, the regular busses are yellow. Excellent work, and i like the redline as the subway because i am used to riding it nearly daily from quincy adams to park street. i appreciate this set very very much

one comment, which doesn not detract from the quality of the set.... the first subway in the US was the greenline section of the T. it is a street car along huntington Ave for a while, but then becomes a subway. but it would be difficult to create this as there is no ground level light rail in SC4

Actually there is ground level light rail in the NAM. Only problem is you cant have different trains becuase its just basically EL rail on the ground, so you get the Elevated Rail train My fav train is the green line, but i couldnt find a model that looks half like it..

Good job, I really enjoy these. Not meaning to nit-pick though, but is there any chance for a Blue Line train for those of us that have to take it? Is there a different download for a blue line and I missed it?

Awesome I love these. It has the same logo as the Pittsburgh "T" line which we are currently making. I really love the tram with the red colored strips on their wall. Excellent Work.

I could easily make a blue line for you, (but it wouldnt have the overhead line pantograph thing).. Do you want EL train or Subway? Or both? Yeah i did notice that it was the same as the Pitt trolley tram thing on the forums :)

awesome idea for props! i am new to the modifying props and was wondering hop do i get the yellow bus to replace all the buses even on other custom lots that i've downloaded? it isn't replacing them. also, could you make the black line blue or green? that would rock! thanks

after playing w/MBTA files i've noticed there no yellowbus engine file, if i place a bus station i see yellow bus drive off, but no buses are generated otherwise. also: still no buses show up in other Lots that use SC4 bus, if anyone could help me modify what to change 4 all buses that would rock.

The engine is the bus... The problem could be that you dont have anyone using buses and thats why you dont see any showing, but when you place a bus station it spawns one. Unless you mean the orange line, in that case the engine is in the entire file

update: you were right it was a lack of buses, however now that i have bus action, i have BOTH the yellow bus and the old blue bus still. still would really like to use yellow for all the buses if anyone could tell me how to modify to use yellow as prop to replace in other tile sets.
