I'm trying to re-skin this automata from Srainy, but I don't know if I can change it to use Passenger Rail instead of El-Rail. If someone knows how, please share. I searched for info on past threads at SC4Devotion, but I couldn't find anything. I want those to be a replacement for the El Rail and Passenger Rail. Something like this—DSC - Rail - Maxis Passenger Trains Remake - Automata - Simtropolis but with those autómatas I want to use different replacements but with the same model or automata. The images are just for reference.

Having trouble finding a terminus passenger station that can handle raised viaduct heavy rail. Ive spent hours searching through STEX and LEX and have yet to find anything that work on my Mac. It seems as though there could even be a shortage of raised viaduct rail stations. So far I've tried the following terminus stations: NDEX ITS NAM Terminus and the Main Railway Station cause me to experience CTDs upon plopping, Winterton Station, however, only CTDs when i place the viaduct rail to link it with the rest of the line. I am assuming this is all most likely due to the known transit bug with Macs. I am hoping that someone else may have any suggestions of stations I may have missed that can handle raised viaduct heavy rail and are also a terminus and "Central/Main Station". Thanks in advance for your time.

Hey! I have 3+ passenger and freight train stations. The passenger train stations are in use and people use them to commute. Just have regular SC4 installed with Rush Hour, no mods. I have yet to see an actual train or have any train u-drive it missions show up. Anyone know what's going on there? I've never had a car ferry mission either. I've played multiple cities. Still nothing.

Hello all, I have my monuments and unique buildings spread out throughout my 180k resident city, would it be better to localize them into a tourist area, with maybe the airport and a passenger rail terminal in the center? The object being to increase the number of tourists in my city. Also, i have an airport and passenger rail setup, but im not turning any profits from either, any suggestions? Thanks!!!

The Super Chief was one of the named passenger trains and the flagship of the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe Railway. It set a new standard for rail travel in America, and being diesel powered easily bested the fuel operating costs of steam trains of the era. With one set of equipment, the train initially operated once a week from both Chicago and Los Angeles, and covered the route in 39hrs at average speeds better than 60mph. It ran (in various forms) from 1936 till 1971. This mod represents the early 1950s configuration of the train, including the Pleasure Dome. This train is best run in cities with normal straights and NAM Wide Curve Rails (double or single) as it has been made close to scale. The carriages look awkward in the default SC4 curves. As usual you can only replace the game engine once. Inside there are two folders.: in /Replace there is a file of carriages and two engine configs which each also replace the game carriage. The F7A config is smaller (16m) and is best overall. It works properly under all circumstances. or The F7AB is full scale with tractor and compressor unit as an engine. This is 32m long and will only look correct on straight rails. Its also long enough to trigger a SC4 bug which affects the last carriage on curves if the engine is too long. However it gives the best photo opportunities... dont use it if it bugs you. So to replace the game passenger train with the Super Chief in full glory - pick one of the two engines and the carriages. in /Extras you will find - the 8 carriages which can be added to any other passenger carriages you have. (there were other trains of the era using the same carriages) - an ATSF EMD F7 Freight Engine and a SOO EMD F7 Freight Engine - these engines do not replace the game engine - they are Extra ones. As usual: add these file anywhere in plugins, revert your trains to the game defaults by removing the files from plugins. @ rail purists: "you cant make a silk purse from a sows ear" are words that came to mind frequently while making this - photo material while copious was not very useful and the game imposes severe limitations.
