Underground Train Station (Oculus)

Description
This is a train hub with two train platforms at -24 meters and two train platforms at -12 meters. A pure metro version can be found here. And a train-metro version can be found here.

It is part of the World Trade Center Transportation Hub in New York City. This terminal is called the Oculus. It was designed by the Spanish architect Santiago Calatrava (Santiago Calatrava Collection).

The train station accepts InterCity trains. I have tested that thoroughly, but individual rail layout and configuration might lead to different results.

You MUST HAVE subscribed to AND enabled in the menu the Extra Train Station Tracks ( ETST ) mod by BloodyPenguin.


Asset name: Oculus Train Hub
Category: Train
Construction cost: 45.000
Maintenance: 960

You can use any tracks you want, to connect to the station. Note, that the terrain can transform in a very strange kind when adding a tunnel. To avoid that, you can build a short (2 units) tunnel first, and then build more tracks (description in the pictures). I recommend using Precision Engineering mod for this.

For placing stops you can use Advanced Stop Selection by BloodyPenguin. It can also help moving the stop to the end of a station to help finding the path.

Check out my workshop for more stations for metro, trains and cargo transport!

It is based on the WTC Transit Hub by buddyg987 so credits go to him for that.

The big round building on the screenshot is the Apple Campus - Mothership by Luminou.

Many thanks to BloodyPenguin for the ModTools, the Advanced Buildings Editor and of course the Extra Train Station Tracks ( ETST ) mod which made this custom hub all possible.

Thank you to Otaner for the screenshots!


UPDATE 31.10.2020
I remade the whole asset to fix some issues with pedestrian connections. Furthermore I added a new floor to make it look better, a new LOD and I optimized the file size.

I really this asset however I'm a perfectionist and that problem of not gettinh the tunnels undeground at the entrance of thge station is getting me pissed ahah.It's a great asset and as you mention above there's not much that you can do to resolve. Metro tracks works fine, aren't any ways to put train tracks as the metro works? (I don't know how the process works to makes this buildings to work)

Have you tried the 2u-segment trick on the picture above? That works sometimes. Besides that, there is nothing can be done. It's a game problem. Underground train stations are not officially supported.

Have the same issue as Ha Ha >_<. For some reason track connected to this asset are visible from the ground ( looks like a big whole ). Any idea how to sort i out?

the underground track somehow shown on ground idk why but it happens on the -12m station. No matter what i do, the tracks will shows up even if i am connecting the station to a underground track.

I sent you a request. If you accept it, we can discuss the matter further 😉

I'm trying to build a modern underground train station with island plat for station like you see in NewYork City penn station and back bay station in Boston. However there appears to not be any interior to it and just shows blank and I cant fix it in asset editor... It would be nice to have the option to have an underground island or sided platform rendered station.. :)
