[susanaes]

m back in action now. I finally got my screenshots to work and im back in action so her is my pic of my SEPTA Route
Main St. Terminal

So the stations that are done are Main St Terminal, Wallace, Pineview Park, Hamilton TC. and East Hamilton.

 

[susanaes]

Here are a list of stations to be on the route

Main Street Line:
Main St.
Wallace
Pineview Park
Hamilton TC
Hamilton Junction
Brent
IDK after that but last two stops will be
University City
30th Street Station

Hamilton Line:
Hamilton TC
East Hamilton
Hamilton
Hamilton Junction
IDK after that but last two stops will be
University City
30th Street Station

If i get TS12 then i will try and merge my Route with there NEC Route so i can make it go to University City and 30th Street Station

 

[susanaes]

Anyone have any station ideas cuz I kinda hit a bump?

 

[drchoi21]

you probably want to use gfishers catenary DL&W and PRR

I lay track & switch's first ... then after the trackwork is perfected I put in a few choice buildings, signals ... and to me textures come dead last.

Heres one of my many creations for this route Station Signs

If anyone doesn't mind helping could someone help me export this into trainz along with a few other things?

Since this is fictional route, you're going to want to capture whatever area of Philadelphia this comes in from. Since part of your route enters the center city area, you're going to want to use my skyscrapers and landmarks. I have about a dozen on the DLS, so feel free to use those. If your route models the north, northwest, or western segments, or Bucks County, plan on using a lot of fieldstone (I believe domsarto and Angelah have made quite a lot) houses and buldings, hilly terrain, and lush grass and trees. A lot of that architecture dates from the 18th and early 19th centuries. Northeast Philly will generally be more modern, marked with rowhomes, often clean and pristine. Southwest, down towards the airport and beyond, will tend to feature more brick architecture from the late-19th and early-20th centuries.

I wouldn't use the generic city blocks you have in your screenie. They really don't capture the look-and-feel of Philadelphia. The inner parts of the city - not the suburbs, but in the city - tends to be lower, mostly 3 stories high or less, and lots of older rowhomes.

Actually it was orginaly called main street line but for some reason your main street route wouldn't in my game so i had to make my own route

Did you get a specific error message? It was built in TS2010 so you'd need to change the Trainz-build to 2.9. I did use some Speedtrees but you should just be able to delete those.

I think I'm going to make several styles of Philly rowhomes, both as splines and individual scenery assets. I'm probably not going to do it in the next week or two but look for them at some point on the DLS if you want to use something like that.

Nice work Susanes! I suggest making the Station Sign Renameable. Also, SEPTA got rid of their R-Numbering.

May I suggest a route?

Limerick Line:
Limerick
Philadelphia Premium Outlets
Sidcup
Marceline Point
Northwood
Denningville
Clarendon
Kester Hill
Manayunk-West
Bluregart
Wissahickon
East Falls
Allegheny
North Broad
Temple U.
Market East
Suburban
30th St.
Canterlot?

Good Luck to you!

I recommend the Gfisher roads.

I just want to let people know that im not giving up on this i just had to stop the route because i have two weeks of testing that counts towards my graduation so there will be very little updates til my testing is done.

@PJAMA ill take that route in consideration but ill tell you this Temple U.,Market East,Suburban,30th St. will be hard but if you can get me some info on those ill try and make it doable.
