Title: Japanese railway stations
Post by: shinkansen1 on July 06, 2007, 12:32:53 AM
To me, even with the hundreds of custom train stations here and at ST, I feel that for the cramped streets and rails of Elleson, there is a heavy lack of variety in rail stations.I've used several of the same station that has a capacity of less than 7,000 and takes up 2x4 tiles, all tiles using rails. However, some of these stations are being used at 500%, which is around 30,000 total usage. And with space as abundant in Elleson as it is in Tokyo, larger rail stations is not a viable option. Capacity is not the main issue here, it's lack of variety, and I have yet to see a Japanese styled rail station on any B.A.T. exchange. One of the few stations that I want to see in Elleson is Yurigaoka station, which is located on a rail line between Shinjuku and Hakone-Yumoto stations.

Despite it having one column of rail dedicated tiles, its daily capacity seems superior over those that I currently use, and seems just narrow enough to be crammed in the tightest straight sections of the E.R.A..

Maybe a bit OT, but it's a funny fact, isn't it:
In the Austrian Railway Forum there is a member with a user name, that is quite similar to your name ->

I'm not sure if these will help but you can have a look. 10th and last on NOB's station page. (http://hide-inoki.com/~nob/lot_station.htm)

N1_2888: I'm sorry, but I am not familiar with that site. I use the same username on simpegasus and simtropolis, but those are the only other sites where I have the same username.

@ shinkansen1:

With a small delay ...  ::)
I found it just remarkable that there are two different people with different interests who live in different countries but have quite the same user name  ;)
