Simcity 4 Train systems Issue

[Tegewaldt 2]

Hey fellow Simcity fans

Just a simple question:

I wonder whether its possible to have two different train sets of passenger or freight trains

running at the same time, like where the game picks one of them at random whenever one

leaves a station.

Im New to The Forum btw.

As far as I know it's not possible to have 2 different sets of trains selectable

for random use.

That is a great Idea though.I think there is a thread where you can post transit

mod ideas,you should find it & post this idea there.

Don't know about train sets, but it is possible with busses..

Check if the download contains at least one file called additional or similar.. If not, check Read-Me's, they always contain info you need

Yes you can. I have that. As long as you use files that just add a train and don't override another.

If you have files add cars, then it will randomly choose. If you want two completely different sets of trains that don't mix, that isn't possible. Both Passenger and Freight trains behave largely the same as each other, randomly selecting a locomotive, a random set number of random cars, then a random caboose if it's a freight train.

True, unless you want do some modding

Swordmaster describes a way to modd freight trains here ←(linky), so that it will only use specific train cars... He has also uploaded a file further down the page that blocks maxis trains
