Light Rail Items

[JCitron]

Very nice looking route, Susan!

I use some modified YARN roads. I have some that I've "borrowed" textures from FMA roads for cobblestones and removed the traffic so cars don't run through the trolley cars and trains. The cobblestone streets are also good for mill yards and around stations too.

That catenary support system is available off the Polish Tram site. Here is a link to the home page:http://www.ptram.eu/en/ You have to register to download items. Most items are of high quality LOD. Enjoy.

Thanks man i was there 1000s of times and never noticed.

 

[bolivar]

Second page under "Infrastruktura" . The item is called "Tramwajowa siec Trakcyjna"

 

[susanaes]

Thanks Friend found them

Still a nice route you're doing. Trams and trolleys are so much fun to work with. You can have a bit of everything from lots of traffic, regular trains, the trams, and even subways too. The PTram website is awesome. There's some really great stuff there too such as the above mentioned catenary.

Thanks JC we the ball is almost ready to be rolling just looking for a couple more things do you guys know where I can get like subway type items so than I can put my light rail route underground. That's the part of the route that I want to look like the MBTAs Green Line.

 

[susanaes]

Any other suggestions guys about what I could do for my subway portion and what other kinds of roads would be nice for street running?

 

[JCitron]

Look at the German stuff by Alterr. He made some nice stations, although not interactive an with German signs. The signs can be changed by editing them in a photo editor such as Gimp. I haven't gotten around to that myself. I'm working on a big project now so my fun freelance stuff has to wait.

Also check out platforms by vlatas. User ID 489443.

He has some stuff on the DLS and a lot of stuff on his own website.

Great concrete platforms with steps waiting areas, etc.

Here's a link specifically for Metro platforms.

Click on the bold name and that's the link for the download. The files are usually .RAR files so you can use 7zip to open them up. They contain the cdp files which install normally.

There's all kinds of stuff here from tram/subway terminals, repair shops, stations, etc. on this site.

@JC Thanks for the links but those stations wont work for my light rail line there too high im looking to make the subway portion look like this but now that i think about it i think i might have an idea as to what ill do kinda

 

[JCitron]

I see what you're looking for - almost like the MBTA Green Line stations.

I'll look around again. I've seen something that might work, but I can't remember who made it.

Susan,

You may like to look at the Belgium (question) Thread, as I constructed something similar to what you are looking for in the way of underground tram stations. Page 4&5 tag 62.

[susanaes]

Any luck JC?

Susanæs,

May I suggest strongly the tramway content by Paulzmay? There is an extensive amount of tramway catenary wires and pylons, I suggest the galvanized variety (like a light-grey). I have an SD160 floating around on one of my computers, I was working on it in 3DS MAX and painting it in Denver RTD colors. It will be a while before I even get back to working on it though (I was also working on an extensive road network project to compliment).

it might be worth looking at the nippon assets, I've just downloaded them.

susanaes, I love the look of that tram . Have you made the center car yet?? Is it on dls yet? If not would you mind letting me know where/when I can get it please.

thanks
Scot
