@diamonddog_74: Thanks. I agree with you; The retaining walls simply have to be dirty and mossy. 19.gif

@Benedict: Thank you. By the way, I finally convinced myself into creating a CJ.. 31.gif

Nice work! I especially like the first picture. The tram lines and the older buildings look great together!

Here's another of my shots. An Amtrak train passing over a viaduct in the middle of a city (although it doesn't look like it)

VERY NICE..... very nice.

@Simcitler: what extra graphics (BATS/MODS.etc?) are you using? Very nice urban and rural scenes.

@Simcitler. I love those railways. But what station is that in pic 3 and 4 because it looks amazing. Also do you have any hints on small freight yards for industrial areas because i can never find any good ones.

You can use the PEG CDK series. I use a mixture of the 2x lots, the 3x lots, and the 5x lots. Also good is Paeng's Modular Freight Yard System (MFY).

Especially for railroads I use most of the SFBT Stuff, available on the LEX. Creator search phrase: "Andreas"  There you will find many items.6.gif

Thank you!

The station itself was lotted by logan123. I gave it a relot for my purposes, i also added the freight/train yard part of the station. The station you see on pictures 3 and 4 is made out of 2 lots. One is 18x6 (station), the train yard part is 16x3. At least i believe that this are the sizes. Can´t remember exactly at the moment.

You can DOWNLOAD the station Lot here: http://www.simforum.de/showpost.php?p=3932081&postcount=247

You have to scroll down a bit!

Well there are "some" dependencies as well. (listed beneath the Downloadlink)

What do you think about it?

I just realized that i didn´t mentioned that this station was lotted by logan123456 who is a colleague over at the german simforum! Another colleague SimCityFreak666 has BATted some additionally Props, for example the ICE Prop which is "leaving" the station. My job was/is the modding and some Lot tweaking! At the moment we are testing and do some final steps.

We are glad that you like this station so far!
