Heres a station that i have been working on that im about to put into my CJ's next update

Is that your own BAT?

I am at this moment under the impression that it is, and it is simple but amazing. Even if it isn't yours I like how you have used it.

If this is available, or still in development I am curious if there is a version of this with stations on both sides of the sunken slopes linked visually by an equally simple pedestrian overpass.

And to everyone else the work done by everyone on this site never ceases to amaze and inspire me.

@EyeofMobius: Thanks. But I didnt create that. Its just two stations side by side "connected" by a lot from one of the sloped wall packs I downloaded, A single station was too short for my trains so i just put another and added the lot. I cant think of it now.

But that green lot next to the stairs on the side of the parking lot is found in the PED malls and acts like a a ped link. So its functional.

Awesome Biriali!

What retaining wall are you using?

The retaining walls are from Kazuki's site. I have changed the default textures, though, so they would blend better with the surroundings.

Sweet picture, Biriali! The slope of the avenue is also a pleasure to look at, and the Panasonic building fits just perfectly.

Nice! Thanks Biriali. :-)

Here's a new picture of mine

As you can see, it is the end of a tram line with a station that sits next to a railwaystation. And next to this station there's rail maintenance depot for the trains.

Another great shot, Biriali! I like the mix of different railroad 'densities'. Where did you get those blue sheds on the right-hand side? Thanks in advance!

Thank you, Yoshiisland :D I found the blue trainsheds on a very confusing site (which you can find here) The site is very much in korean and google translate won't work on it for some reason. But I think I once gave the exact link in the "Where can I find this" thread. Try have a look there...

And now for something new from me (am I the only one here that builds railways?)

I'm working on a container port, and no container port without a railyard! It obviously isn't finished yet, but I thought I'd share it any way. Enjoy!

img0011tw.jpg

EDIT: I found my earlier post, that tell you were and how to get the sheds exactly

It's from this Korean site

The site is quite difficult to navigate as it is in Korean, so here's the direct links

part one, part two

There's also a lot of other goodies there. But it's entirely in Korean, and not all the downloads are pictured.

Hope it helped!

I love your rail yards! I actually do use railways, a lot of them; I'm a true railgeek :D I really should post more pictures! :golly: But thanks for the link, those are great lots, and yeah I wish the site could be navigated...geeze and I thought the Japanese sites were tricky, one click of Google translate and I made my way around those but this is completely different... :boggle:

EDIT: oh, and thanks for the link!

Thank you. I really love all the praise.

I have another shot for anyone who might be interested. It's still from the rail yard / container port but from a different angle and at night. And you can see, that I've worked some more on it

Yep, I lot it all my self (except from the trucks and warehouses in my last pic - they're made by FrankU). It takes a lot of time, but the results are also a lot more satisfying.

Just a nice, somewhat quiet suburban commuter terminus, with a train waiting to depart for the bit city.

I had to photo edit the train into the station.
