Description


Railway 2 is a brand new network package which is packed with numerous new features, while maintaining the existing features of original Railway 1 project. It also brings new types of networks such as quads and mainlines. Check Railway 2 Guide in the collection, linked above.

Hell Gate
The Hell Gate Bridge, originally the New York Connecting Railroad Bridge or the East River Arch Bridge, is a 1,017-foot (310 m) steel through arch railroad bridge in New York City. Originally built for four tracks, the bridge currently carries two tracks of Amtrak's Northeast Corridor and one freight track across the Hell Gate, a strait of the East River, between Astoria in Queens, and Randalls and Wards Islands in Manhattan.

Bridge was the inspiration for various projects around the world; Tyne Bridge Newcastle and Sydney Harbor Bridge in Australia were in fact derived designs from Hell Gate.

Hell Gate for Cities: Skylines is the result of a collaboration between me and Armesto. I handled steel structure of the bridge complex, and Armesto handled the stonework; pillars and bridge tower, as well as the color correction of variants. Geze also handled the wooden plank texture correction.


  • Pack of 2 networks:
  • Viaduct network: Contains the ground abutment and node switches with other networks. Elevated, nodeless viaduct network.
  • Bridge network: Contains the main arch on bridge prefab and transition networks on elevated prefab.
  • Uses the power of Adaptive Roads for in-game customization.
  • Part of Railway 2: USA expansion, that features accurate rail profile, 1:1 scaled wire height and many more features.


All Hell Gate networks recycle textures and materials between each other. Pillars also have shared texture and material properties for optimization.


Comes as electrified networks. Use Network Skins to disable wires on-dragging, or Catenary Replacer to cancel wires map-wide. Part of RAILWAY project, thus requires Railway Replacer to customize track props.

Highly recommend to check the complete guide for full features and details.

I'm not sure if this is helpful or not for the actual modelling, but a great reference at least

@REVO if you're open to commissions or taking on new projects I would love to discuss a few bridges with you! The Smithfield bridge is another I've been wanting to bring to life as well :)

Why not make the actual bridge instead ? It looks like a nice bridge candidate

Hey REVO, I love this asset and I'm actually using it to re-create the West End Bridge in Pittsburgh, PA

With that being said, if it's not too difficult and if you're able to find the time, (Doesn't have to be soon!) would you be able to release a yellow version please?

If you can't no worries - the black version works great too. Appreciate your work!

Why are the pillars disappearing when i try to connect the bridge to both ends?

I never tried but you can check and see how it works. I believe non having AN will cause all mesh variants be spawned at once, or not at all.

I highly recommend to use AN, if you have any hesitations about the mod, dont hesitate to ask in AN mod itself or type here, I'll respond them best of my ability

Can the bridge be used without adaptive networks?
