@philforhockey51 Are you using T Wrecks' IRM ? I noticed all the lots blend well together with the filler sets . looking very nice . I use Rivit's RRW mod , the one that removes the dirt base texture and leaves the ballast .

When I'm not on Simtropolis or playing SC4 HERE you can see what else I'm into .

@raynev1 Yes a lot of IRM fillers and some industrial lots, also a mix of random other lots thrown from other creators including some freight stations.


I thought about this, and am still thinking about it because though I've thought about this, I still have more thinking to do as to stop thinking about it would mean not to think.

Dang, that bridge is sweet. Smooth ramps, seamless road underpasses, perfect pillar spacing and great choice of model IMO. Wow.

You should finish that area with some nice flora and post an up-close picture in the "show us your bridges" thread. This deserves more views.

Thanks!! In any case, that face of the hill is so heavily exposed to the sun that the only thing I could add would be some rocks and dry grass, or maybe some houses on the base...

Where did you get your terrific selection of heritage units?

I am digging the look of RRW there!

Second from last...green shutters must be a professional office, cause there is no sleeping next to the at-grade crossings!  :party:

@f3cs Those OWR crossings are monumental! I like the way you keep the line away from street grade in a trench... which slope walls did you use? And I wonder if that set includes overhanging underbridge pieces.

That station will be texture-matching with @rivit's forthcoming reskin mod.

The quality of that replica is almost absurd! Everything matches in colour, shape, style, all!

@Ln X That's what I'm talking about! You always capture those areas that are least shown in CJ's such as this beautiful tableau which shows the edge of town and the beginning of farm fields and that is where you would most likely find a lonely siding with a parked train.

Wonderful!
