Description
This is a collection of the best interchanges I have found. I'm looking for realism & a little bit of 'wow' factor as well.

I love trains & when I see some of the terrible things people are building with train lines, it makes me cringe.
Train lines do not have cloverleafs people. They also don't like steep grades or tight turns.

I am not shaming anyone for their building skills or saying they are bad designers, I am just trying to point out some misconceptions people might have about trains in general.

I don't see this problem as much with highways, but there are some out there.

So I say, don't neglect your trainlines. Let's all learn how to build them & make them an integral part of our cities.

3 Way wye Railroad Switch by RealRevChris - JFM

This switch will allow trains to select 1 of 3 different lines. It could also be incorporated into railroad yards for an extra bit of realism. I didn't use anarchy on this. Having smooth interchanges can help with traffic flow. 100% Vanilla, no DLC needed....

Railway Through Yard by RealRevChris

Railway Through Yard by RealRevChris The railroad yard is a place for trains to drop off & store cars. It allows the trains to be 'built' with the particular cars they need to take to different places. I don't think CS will park trains on these, but they w...
