Dumb Question re: GLR

For my city I'm looking at using a transit system of buses over the entire city, passenger rail trains to connect inter-city, and a combination of subway/GLR (tram)/El rail for intra-city.

 

I've been experimenting with the different types of transit and all the pieces with them, and I've realized something... I can't for the life of me find the GLR track to run on my avenues.  I've thoroughly checked in my rail and depots section, misc transit section, even the roads section in case NAM put it as an option up there.  I cannot find it at all.

 

Can anyone tell me where to look?

It should appear near the top of the Misc Transport menu if it's installed. If you don't see it there, try re-installing the NAM making sure the Tram in Avenue is selected as part of the installation setup.


Head over to my Lot and Mod Shack to keep abreast of my latest developments.

Do you like custom textures, but don't like all the work involved creating them?, take a look at the Texture Automation options here. Change the look and feel of your transit networks, with the minimum of effort, for example customised versions of my Sidewalk NAM (SWN) and Terrain Grass NAM (TGN) mods, and much more besides.

New to the NAM? Check out my tutorials on YouTube. Latest upload: How to: RHW - MHO Roundabout Interchanges. (Nov 25).

p.s. - I'm MGB over on SC4D and a member of the NAM team.

Agree with the suggestion above. The stations are found in the Misc Transportation menu as well. Take note that GLR on Avenue are single pieces that you need to connect together, you can press "tab" button to see all the pieces. :)

    I will try reinstalling the NAM and hopefully that will work.  In regards to the tram on avenue stations I've downloaded a bunch of different ones on the exchange.  For the single tile GLR stations, how long do the stations have to be to accommodate the length of the train?  Is a single tile piece good enough or longer is needed?

    Actually, the size of the train doesn't matter. There will be times wherein the train is longer than the station but there isn't exactly a required size for the train station to accommodate the train.
