UK Screenshots (Hi Res Version)

The track work is loosely based on Dewsbury. I have a few versions of it, but this one has yet to have brick piers added to the high walls. The high level track was laid on a raised baseboard, which was then dug out for the roads and canal. This left the track, which is on a steady gradient, suspended for quite some distance. The retaining walls and girder work were added, which still left the roads and canal showing through the track. Tiles of 'Bloc de macadam - kuid:64819:37397' were dropped onto the baseboard where this occurred and raised up underneath the track to cover what was beneath.

There is a critical point (one step) between where the tile covers the track (too high) and where the objects below show through (too low). The track being on a gradient was a bit of a problem, but not much of one. @bloc de macadam' would be handy to have in different geometric shapes, such as equilateral triangle and it smaller sizes, but I just managed coverage in the awkward places.

Nice shots.

After watching a few videos on YouTube the other day of this station i thought i would have a go at making it, i must add its not an exact representation of said station but i thought it look quite good, and works well, see if you can guess where i am trying to recreate.

Yes i have been trying to create Nuneaton Station, the only part i cant create is the walkover section, as all the walkovers i have tried either don't look right or when the step are at platform level the wired go straight through it, i tried a combination of marky7890's Truro walkover, it looked quite good but the wires went through it.

If memory serves me correctly, I think someone else (gds?) started building Nuneaton in TRS/TS as well.

Had you thought of trying UK 25m Wire Transition (kuid:60850:37206)? I've used them for bridges, before now.

Very nice, emo

This is loosely based on Wirksworth, a part of the Ecclesbourne Valley Railway (see here - Drive a Diesel Train Experience, Ecclesbourne Valley Railway)

I've built it within the constraints of Trainz contents and created the station building more or less how is was. Made the layout much as it is, but added a few bits to suit the much larger layout. I've added rolling stock that was laid out a bit like the day I went there, but it will all change after a few screenshots.

After a PC upgrade I just got back into Trainz after some time apart, am planning to actually put some real time into a route spent a few hours on this so far. :)

Pretty chuffed with this upgrade I haven't seen the FPS drop below 70FPS even with very dense foliage.

Still on the EVR, at Wirksworth, which I've made a double-track through station with a with branchline platform.

The EVR will be running Steam Experience Days this year and so they could probably utilise their own Komatsu road/road vehicle to load their steam locomotives with coal. I've added a water tower. They use an old tender.

I've made it more comfortable at the fuel pump.

Where the far left platform is, the old Wirksworth Station had a cattle dock.

The Wirksworth Station site has ramps on both sides, but no access for passengers from the far right ramp.

The EVR has a narrowgauge line with runs into the cutting where the double track main line terminates. I've made the main line a through line.

my first tests are going well.
i'm just trying to get the hang of how to use the builder in TS2010.
here a first screenshot.
