    suomi2005- Thankyou very much!

    bbfan02- Thanks, I think that's my favourite border from Paintshop.

    Smarty218- I just thought i'd give you a very long cliffhanger, lol! It's good to be back. Thanks for your comment.

    suplado!- Thanks very much! I like making construction lots, I think it makes it seem like the city is alive and growing.

    KingTitan- It really does look toxic, lol, it was a sort of... experiment... that occured in the xenon labs that went horribly wrong, seeping Potassium Hydroxide into the canal, mixed with everything else that gets dumped in that thing creating some type of glow... Somehow... Anyways, i'm rambling! thanks very much for your comment!

    penguin007- Yeah, it was a bit of a pain, but i'm prepared to start again! Thanks very much for your comment!

    Richard- Thanks, it hopefully will be better than before but we'll see.

    jacqulina- Thankyou very much!

    Notca in the 1960's and onwards

    At the moment Notca is a small town but still growing, here's what it looks like at the moment:

    All right! Swift work, and it looks great! The canals are perfect and I especially like the rail interchange. Th street side mod looks good there.

    The surrounding Drayton Province

    Notca is still only a small coastal town and the surrounding countryside is a thing of beauty. the only thing that interrupts it is are the winding roads and railways and the odd village.

    Nice job with the estates and villages, the hospital is an interesting centerpiece for the town.

    Drayton Manor overpass

    The year is 1978, Notca is expanding rapidly and large motorways are springing up all over the country. However, expansion comes at a great cost, the destruction of natural beauty. The Drayton Manor overpass has been approved and is under construction to create a through route to the hills.

    I sure can't wait to see the finished product of the overpass! It looks really nice already.

    First of all I want to thank those who nominated my City Journal for a Trixie "Best City Journal" and congratulations those who won!

    Richard- Ahhh, thanks! its my first attempt at doing something rural with SimCity and i'm glad you like it!

    jacqulina- Thanks very much Jackie! And congratulations on those Trixies!

    De Ja Vu- Thanks! I like those glass buildings i've used them quite a few times in the past!

    bbfan02- Thankyou! I had a bit of a problem with that pond, I used this tool to create the water at first but when I came back to it after restarting simcity, it dissapeared, so I was forced to lower the terrain, so unfortunately it doesn't look as good as when i first did it.

    Smarty218- Thanks! I spent a lot of time making the villages, trying to make sure they looked small and realistic.

    suplado!- Congratulations on your Trixie! I'm glad that you like them!

    ky72x- To be honest I actually completed the overpass then deleted it to make the construction site! Thanks for your comment!

    Black gold

    An interesting discovery has been made in the hills near Notca. It seems that the hills are based upon a large deposit of oil. Obviously oil means large oil companies tearing down the forest to drill for this precious resource. this time is different. The Notca Government has called for a ban on any unauthorised drilling and tightening the law so much that only the favourable "Sectoria petroleum" company can drill here.
