I have checked the stations, and the track is in fact running the opposite direction to what I am travelling. Is there a way to change the direction. I will have a look myself now.

Hi Steve, Thank you for the kind offer - I would appreciate that.
I had thought of using 'UK 50m tunnel single pylon' which I could set the height from each spline point, and then bring the roof level down to match the stems.
So far, it looks like you've done a good job on the stations and it would be nice to see them finished.
Cheers mate,
Roy

I've set myself a project. I thought I might create from scratch, the City Circle stations with whatever I can find from the DLS or from some of the great layouts that have built over the years. Unfortunately, most of the subway or metro stations available at present, don't have sufficient height for the NSW 'Electrics'. Roof height-levels are far too low and fixed track is too tight to the platforms and walls making them un-satisfactory. I didn't get a degree in model creation and so my skills are rather limited, but I'll have a go.
Here's the start of St James Station, at present with escalators instead of steps. If something better comes along, then I'll swap.
Using 'UK 50m Tunnel Single Pylon' gives me a catenary and a flat roof (I would like a curved roof so I'll keep looking). This is adjustable which I can move upwards to match the NSW Catenary and all I need to do then is to increase the height of the walls and tunnel portal accordingly.
Some City Circle station logos and smarter wall tiling might make things look better. Anyway, it's a start.
Cheers,

Since the Geelong line includes the city loop and I was actually playing around with it last night, I'm very much in favour of what you said Graeme. The assets we have available are lacklustre, and I'm not convinced I can go underground with Roy's excellent custom underground station there.
The Loop has to be underground in trainz because a: it's in the city, and b: in such close proximity to other surface lines.

Ryan is this what you want, it is a simple arched concrete roof.
At the centre it is 1.6 metres higher than the outside edges and is a spline.
It will have to be made to fit your station size or the pitch you would like either way easy fix.
Just let me know what size you want and i'll knock it up for you.
The roof can only be seen from the underside of the roof. The roof you see is 6 meters wide

Hey Steve,
That curved subway roof looks sweet. To cover the average platform width plus one track, the roof would need to be say, 12 meters wide.
Being a spline, it could suit any platform length. Nice work mate. I look forward to seeing it.
By the way, when you made the Sydney Harbour Bridge model, did you happen to make a single track Sydney Tunnel Portal with a single track tunnel spline? I can use the dual track tunnel you provided then insert a separation wall, however from the 'cab view' it looks like a half-tunnel.
Cheers,
Roy
Yes Roy i have single tunnel matching the dual tunnel as well i have left and right hand turnouts for the single and the dual tunnels.
With the curved roof the apex height is 1.6 m at 6 m wide if it was 12 m i would raise the height by .500 to 1 m in height so it didn't look to flat, but let me know and i'll knock it up for you guys.

Thanks Steve, I know you are busy but I would appreciate the single tunnel assets whenever you have the time. No rush.
Just a few moments ago, I was looking at some Sydney Museum Station images and there, the curved roof covers two platforms plus the dual track. So in that case, that particular roof would be about 24 meters wide.
It would be handy to have one at 12 meters and one at 24 meters.
Someone is getting 40 winks!
Thanks for your help Steve, cheers,

Hi Steve,
These would be very useful for my route.
If possible, can I get two versions, an 8m wide and an 18m wide?
Thanks
