Elevated Multi-Track Station with integrated bus hub

I spent the free time between my exams to make this train station.

I started in Sketchup and migrated to blender for the texturing.

I still have to create the pedestrian connections, which is very tedious.

The bus hub uses gravel roads and works just fine. I also plan to integrate a 2-level subway station, and maybe a taxi stand if that is possible with after dark.

How many subway tracks?  I think at least 4 lines crossing for a major central station, like a two-level hash tag #.  Even if most users won't need all 4, you cover all the possible permutations of two tracks that way ( + = || ).

    That's right. I will add 4 tracks.

    I think I will also remove the small box in front of the building (irl it is the subway entrance). It looks better without it.

    I will check if I can add multiple entrances to the subway. One from the bus hub, one from the taxi hub and one from inside the station.

    :rofl:

    I must agree though, this looks perfect for a first setup! I hope you will get it all working. I was looking for elevated stations just recently, but there's not much around yet. So this would be a very welcome addition to the list of available stations. :D
