  16. High Speed Rail Project

    This project is really great. Very realistic indeed. Is there a ground version of this? A ground version would be nice, so we could also make sunken rails. Just like sunken highways. I'll keep an eye on this project.

  18. The Best Towns In America

    Atlanta, GA! Reasons why to like Atlanta: *Crime is going down *Downtown is not too dense *Nightlife is great *Southern Culture still exists *Great restaurants in Midtown and Downtown and all over the city. *A sport city *Great hotels and attractions *Transportation ain't really bad *Atlanta really have good colleges and university *A modern city and at the same time still "southern" *A cheap place to leave in *Buckhead - a suburban community yet, you still feel like you're in a big city. ------ Another city is: Anaheim, CA Reasons: *Disneyland California *California Adventure *A sport city *Knott's berry farm is near by *An hour away from Six Flags Magic Mountain in Valencia, CA *Los Angeles is only 30-40 mins away. *Anaheim, is not a suburb of Los Angeles *Home to the Anaheim Angels and the Mighty Ducks *A WWE favorite *Just about 15 mins away to Newport and Huntington beach. *Hell, you're in Orange County! *Regular Climate *only an hour or so away from San Diego *2 - 2 1/2 hours to Vegas *Crime is down *and much more.

    This is my 2nd CJ, And the first one didn't go so good, since I got bored on that one. But I'm starting a new one right here. A Mountain - Valley - Bay town. It is quite big, but majority are mountains. Actually the Map is Monterey, CA - Im not so good when it comes to Terraforming. Caldwell -- City of Opportunity Here are the Caldwell Boroughs 1. Greenwick Valley The first city developed is Greenwick Valley. About 10 miles south of Caldwell. It is a agricultural mountain city. Only 1/3 of Greenwick Valley is actually developed since mountains above are highly elevated and cannot progress on economical standards. Region Shot of Greenwick Valley. More to come.
