    I am only doing it this way because I like the overall look better than the GLR.

    Looks nice, I like how you have the elevated rail at level sometimes and how you burrow roads underneath of it.

    nice - thats a very nice realistic overview of the city! - maybe if you spread the sparwling suburbs over the hills - it will look even better! - cant wait to see more!

    Yep. If you look closely I think you can see a sloped road already headed up that way. The docks that I am going to make along the shore will help towards the realism as well. Thanks for you input!

    I like the way your city is developing. And I think the higher fence looks a bit better than the lower one, although both look good. Clever idea to create the illusion of having the el rail run 'at grade'.

    Welcome back my friend!

    I don't believe this:

    MasterPlanMan is back and I hjaven't seen it ... oh boy, RL blindness I guess ..

    Great work the not elevated ElTrail - how about nEl-Train as abbreviation? - and especially the terraforming to get the lot foundation walls!

    Take care (and don't forget to make backups!)

    What are the names of all the massive industrial complexes? And what are the parking lots placed along the sides of the sunken freight line?

    These areas were created in the lot editor with BATs from the STEX and elsewhere. I can't find them all and some links seem to be gone but here are some of the BATs I could find for you.

    Great waterfront area, and nice use of the rails. That clock tower looks a little out of place though.
