Show us your Railroads!

This panorama shows several transit systems, but I guess I will post it here:

EDIT:Not sure if I have posted this one yet(It's from my Paridise Island CJ)

The top 4 tracks serve the main Express/Local lines, while the bottom 2 tracks serve the TransCapital Line.

Nice, io_bg! I really like that the avenue goes under the large rail yard.

Some photos from my latest PIRail Update:

^What's with the blur effects?

[simlink 1,098]

Looks great, NTM! Really like the diagonal station right before the road bridge.

^What's with the blur effects?

So that I could focus just on the station.

Anyways, got a panorama of a railyard in my UC Region. Click for full resolution.

That looks so real, spectacular job!

[Ace3 1,209]

There's alot of amazing stuff I have yet to find in this thread! On this page io_bg and Silur stand out to me although everyone has some great work. Keep it up!

@ Nathan: Keep working on it! Your improvement over time is undeniable!

@ nathan: Why don't you use static trains to make it look more like a rail yard than just a enormous number of tracks?

Elevated rail madness

[simlink 1,098]

Intense, Hal! Looks like the spaghetti junction of elevated rail lines.

Hi,

I love rails and just skimmed the whole thread, very inspiring! Truly amazing job there.

Anyone who could point me out which rail texture wwatom1 used for his tracks at the top of page 19 of this thread?

Thanks

Wonder if that could be the alternate railway mod found here (scroll a little bit down)

[Railfan459 6]

Here are mine

Are you using SMP sidewalk replacement mod? Cause if you are, how are you also using PEG Dirt-Rail set? ALSO, how did you get the PEG mod to work on the NAM rail curves? I love your photos!

Lots of inspiring pics here.

Here's my little contribution.

[Lucario Boricua 7,052]

Several things I love about this image:

- The containment wall is exceptionally fantastic! Perfectly placed for a perfect context

- The rail texture change you have to make the soil around the track gravel looks like it's meant to--irregular and discrete, not like sharp corners of a cardboard box.

On a side note, that's something that never occured to me--building apartment complexes as they are in many places--parking spaces lining the dead-end streets leading into them.

[westy177 203]

wow anubis those pics are really nice

[simlink 1,098]

Really like that pic, JayStimson! Love how all of the elements - containment walls, the apartments, the tunnel - play together.

[ROFLyoshi 1,760]

@JayStimson: I would give you my first born child to find out where you got that rail ballast texture.

[Charlie_Zane 963]

wow! Some truly amazing looking railroads here!

[JayStimson 212]

@ROFLyoshi

They're by Pegasus.

Been working on a GLR line today for the first time since I can remember. Some pics below. Used an album as to not flood the page with pics. Hopefully it works for you.

What retexture mod for light rail is that, Haljackey. Great railroad's!!! Love GLR!

[Haljackey 17,398]

It's the Sandstone retexture for ground light rail/NAM. Get it here:

Video tour of the line:

More info in the video description.

[Jimmy Buzaid 53]

Thanks so much, Haljackey! Great video!

[Timmystwin 201]

BEHOLD, the best rail system in the history of simkind.

Sorry, had to.
