Hello and welcome to my secound (and hopefully more sucessful) CJ here on Simtrop.

After a long time of playing Cities XL I've returned to SC4.

The at the moment biggest city of the region is Shì de lónghú. My first asian styled city.

You can reach the city via car or the completely new Shinkansen line:

The public transportation system of the city uses a huge light rail system:

At the moment there are too many western styled buildings around central station. So I have to rebuild this district. The first step was the construction of this nice temple:

That's the new stadium of Shì de lónghú:

This is one of the rail lines of the city, the only one in the city center that is on ground level:

The Downtown golf club is the most exclusive location at the city and the best golf club of the region...... well, they do not say that it's the only one at the moment.

That's the financial district, in the background you can see the golf club again...

The light rail system connects the suburbs with the downtown. It was essential to build a public transport system there otherwhise there would be a big traffic jam at downtown.

A nice temple in the suburbs.....

One of the rail stations, parking is for free.

The dragon islands rail corporation connects most of the neighbour cities to Shì de lónghú, this, for example, is the main station of Xì an:

That's a screen of a regio runner I took somewhere on a small line along the coast:

Last but not least, an overview over the regon and it's developments:

I hope you've enjoied reading the first art of this CJ 4.gif

Greetings, Skimbo.

Excellent start! I can't wait to see how we both tackle this unique terrain (if you haven't noticed, I am doing a CJ using this terrain too - and we started our CJs within about 20 minutes of each other!).

did you know that the trains you use are from the NS (Nederlandse Spoorwegen) and they are from Holland. BTW also really good job on the el-rail lines

where did you get that el-rail station from

Yes, of course I know that they are from the Netherlands. I Use them because I like the combination of blue and yellow.

If you meant the station on the second pic you can find it here:

 I've been looking over your CJ and I'm totally inspired to build a region as intricate yours.
As long as I've been playing SC, i've never seen such attention to detail and complexity.

Awesome work.
