Hi there, I just wish to ask if anyone knows how to pave the railroads. I saw few screenshots where rails were as nice as R$$$ pavement but that is not happening in my city - never. I placed parks, plazas, railroads are connected to the stations and are used, they are running around high-wealth skyscrapers etc. City has about 75.000 people and everything is going pretty smooth but my railroads are all running on dirt. What should I do? I´m not using any modes, I'm playing like this for quite a long time and I don´t want to change it for now. And there is another. What I wish to change is the horrible looking Tourist Trap. Is it possible to have a replacement without installing mods that will change other things? Thanks for help

PhilsCafe & Barbarossa - Yes I'm one of the autors of this good old game but it

That is correct... I know the difference between the artwork and the real game. We all do this (I made some games myself - you may know Hidden&Dangerous or Mafia). But this is screenshot - taken from the game - so I thought it would be there...

This new topic for reopening the lost possibilities sounds wise to me. I could give it a try. And about the NAM I think I will give it a try too, thanks for details. And about links... I just don't fully understand this system. I have problems with breaks, spaces and even with "search" which always end up with error message... so don' t worry about link. Thanks again...

Thank you Barbarossa. I know it was little off-topic but I appreciate I don't have to search the jungle for this answer. To LP - as I never played original SC4 without RH I can not tell. One thing is sure - roads are still working fine, the glitch seems to be in rail network only. I was hoping to improve the city somehow. It is on the box - so I told myself - this should be still possible.

I already have the Rush Hour - it is in the Deluxe Edition pack (Two CD version compiled with RH together). About NAM - will it destroy saves - and if installed can I remove it without reinstalling the whole game and what about the saves then if I don't like it?

Thanks a lot to everyone. But this thing about "paved railroad" must somehow be in the original game. Even screenshot on the box (I have the Deluxe Edition that I brought with me from Australia) shows industrial area with nuclear powerplant and this nicely crafted railroad. It seems that no-one here is playing the original version without mods so I understand it must be hard to give the advice. I don´t know why, I just like the way SimCity4 is (except "Stupid-looking-llama Trap"). It was never a problem to play it - I´m scared that with NAM it will never be the same game I knew And that's all.
