Quad Core Cargo Station

Description
At last! A working Cargo Station that will process multiple trucks simultaneously. Superior to all other "multi track" stations you can presently find in the workshop, which only accomplish multiple trains, while still forcing hundreds of busy trucks to still queue up in a single lane. The Quad Core Cargo Station features four internal roads to easily calm down even the busiest industrial zones.

The quad platforms are fully functional, both for imports and exports, although the tracks have been intentionally left out, with just a small stub to let you know where the four rail lines should be. This gives you the freedom to draw your own train tracks, or use custom high speed rails, you can curve, attach long, short, one way, two way, rails according to your city's needs. I know how annoying it is to have those long straight lines preventing you from building, so I will not limit your creativity and choice. If you choose to skimp on space, though, be aware that trains will spawn right in the middle of empty space. If you don't mind, it doesn't matter - the trains themselves will still run.

You will need Building Anarchy to place the Quad Core Cargo Station without the roadside required error message (Or you can just place a road and delete it after putting the building). The Quad Core Cargo Station doesn't need no damn roadside, since it comes ready made with four of its own roads. These are narrow one lane, one way roads, so you will need Network Extensions 2.

I have included two versions of the Quad Core Cargo Station, one handles traffic flowing counterclockwise, and one handles clockwise traffic. This means the Quad Core Cargo Station will service both LHD and RHD cities, and incoming trucks will never block the outgoing trucks, like what happens with the game's vanilla cargo station.

If you wish to design your own even more powerful Station (like an Eight Core Cargo Station), look to the Truck Terminal, a fully functional cargo substation template. The Truck Terminal, in both the regular and reversed versions, is the critical engine behind the Quad Core Cargo Station, which will not function without it.

Note - Although listed as a park, this asset will still appear under your Train Transport tab.

IF YOU LIKE THIS ASSET, PLEASE RATE IT to help visibility.

hello.. can anyone tell me how to place this? thank you

A perfect idea. Finnaly a functional cargo train station that can handle several trucks. To bad the trucks often (or rather allways) get stuck. Anyone else have any idea why the trucks get stuck and cant get out?
This idea is something the devs should had made a long time ago.

This seems to be the only asset that could handle a large number of trucks. Unfortunately it has 2 dependencies that keep me from subscribing to it:
- [Obsolete] Modern Lighting Pack: Liberated!
- Network Extensions 2

I think both could be replaced relatively easy. I certainly know that the NEXT2 roads were redone as individual network types.

Will keep an eye on it, maybe in the future it will get updated.

Does this asset still work?

Airports you can build your own with as many "ports" like you want.

@Kaybs
Sadly it doesn't seem like he is still doing anything. There are a couple of smaller issues, he could fix.

we. need. this. for. ports. and. airports.

Works perfectly in my city, having a LHD and a RHD in the centre of my map, each train line connected to only one counter station. It is the only 4 plus lines trainstation which supported in my map actually export AND import at these multi-line stations on each line.
Therefore brilliant proof of concept. Now it needs aesthetically some fine tuning since it's only four lines with four straight one way roads next to it, trainstation tracks are minimalistic, trucks spawning the wrong way around in sheds, which are half on the roads. So this should become a blank set to be filled with props by the gamer or alternatively enhanced with better placed and better looking buildings.
Btw: Building Anarchy is not required, instead Fine Road Anarchy is the mod required for placing these stations.
These stations are recommended!

Would also like to see this with vanilla or vanilla ++ roads instead of next 2.

Any plans to remove the requirement for Network Extensions 2 after the recent issues?
