hi, this is my favorite station from the workshop

are you perhaps planning 8 track or 10 track version? i love using this for my central station, however i always have to eventually replace it with a different station as 6 tracks isn't enough

Hey... Great Station... Thank you! :)
Want do make the Platforms a lil bit longer. Do you have the Platforms as a single Item?

this is such a good asset, I hated the base-game train station so much :)

I love this station. It has become my mainstay for my city center when first integrating trains in a city for quite some time now. If you had Patreon, I'd send you beer.
It would be really awesome if you some time could really make the cims use the underpasses and overpasses from the platforms. On such a beautiful station, it just stands to so starkly as the only thing very out of place.
Many thanks for all your efforts.

didnt realized that station might need to be mom compatible to get that feature. thanks for warning @Ionwind
i will test it and leave a comment about it soon, if its possible to change the rail tracks to metro.

@Tuga_Venatus I don't use MOM myself so I can't confirm if this station functions properly as you suggested. The thing is that this station has short regular two-way tracks on both ends of station tracks which might cause some issues.

I will probably make a "better" version of this station after I finish my current project.
Tuga_Venatus 6 Aug, 2019 @ 5:14pm 
@ams083 i believe one of the latest updates of the "metro overhaul mod" makes it possible to change the train track to metro track, which means you can set one of the platforms of this station for metro directly from MOM options while building the station.
i have made that to the default station, putting the closest to exit platform with metro tracks at ground level, and so far metros pickup cims without issues.
ams083 19 Jun, 2019 @ 3:08pm 
@Ionwind - no problems. Either way it’s one of my favourite stations to use!
Karumäki  [author] 19 Jun, 2019 @ 10:30am 
ams083: I have had some thoughts on updating this asset a bit. I might make a version with a subway station, but don't expect anything too soon.
ams083 17 Jun, 2019 @ 11:34pm 
Any change of incorporating a subway system? Or a subway station that compliments this?

Thanks, this is a pretty good station!
Karumäki  [author] 6 Jun, 2019 @ 2:13pm 
2Dimm: yeah, the pedestrian paths are really tricky. I just tried fixing them and I almost got it. We'll see.
Dimm 6 Jun, 2019 @ 2:06pm 
i tried fixing the paths myself but i have no clue what i'm doing and somehow made things even worst, they started going arround the tracks and ignoring the paths lol hope one day you will wake up motiveted (・∀・)
Karumäki  [author] 6 Jun, 2019 @ 10:40am 
2Dimm: I'm aware of the issue. People were walking across the tracks since the day one even though I thought I lowered the paths. I try to fix that some time in the near future, maybe. I'm sorry I'm a bit lazy.
Dimm 6 Jun, 2019 @ 12:44am 
really loved this design, my only issue is that passengers walk over the tracks instead of through the underground stairs on the right side and the raised platform on the left side, looking in the asset editor the paths seem to be all flat, i wonder if a update broke the paths in some way?
Justin Credible 17 Sep, 2018 @ 3:58am 
Well, thank you for considering it. And hold on to the idea to release your stations with single-track segments some day. The more testing I do the more I think that train stations with single-tracks (and platform extension props for individual length) would be the best solution for more train realism in CSL.
Karumäki  [author] 16 Sep, 2018 @ 9:30pm 
@Mike, I need to think about how to implement extension props, but it should be doable. Let's see if I can get enough motivation to do that.
Justin Credible 16 Sep, 2018 @ 2:54pm 
O.K., I see, thank you, and of course I don´t want to hold you back from building your city! Altenburg station looks quite interesting, I will do some testing with that. And at least 6-car trains are working quite good with your older 2-track + 4-track. Just one last question: would it be possible without to much time for you to spend, to release a peace of platform from your stations as a prop for using it as a platform extension on the platform ends? For 6-car trains the platforms are one car length too short on each side.
Karumäki  [author] 16 Sep, 2018 @ 12:48pm 
@Mike, the so called station platform segment might be just a bit longer in my older stations, that is only because I did not bother to find out how long segments I used with them.

The problem is that the station platform segment can be only about 20 u long. If the segment is stretched longer than that, something bad will apparently happen.

One way around this would be to use single-track segments. I considered that and I might some day release my stations with single-track segments. The problem with single track segments is that they can't be as close to each other as the default double-track without z-fighting. I have to do some testing around this – but I would also like to have time to build my city also...

I think Konfox's modular station uses single tracks, as well as Altenburg station .
Justin Credible 16 Sep, 2018 @ 12:48pm 
For an example of a beautiful long passenger train: The "DB BR 110.3 8m Blue/Ivory" made by TheArkerportian. Do you think you can build longer versions of your stations (with longer station rail segments) where this train fits in?
Justin Credible 16 Sep, 2018 @ 11:04am 
Now that I can see your station ingame, I must say that I really like it (as I did before with your 2-track and 4-track versions).
But what I also really would like to see are versions for long passenger trains, where the station rail segment (the segment between the two cross points) are significant longer (and with corresponding longer platforms for the cims). What I just noticed comparing this station to your 2-track station precisely, is that at the 2-track station the station rail segmnet is already a tiny little bit longer (which already makes a big difference for one of my a little bit longer trains). So I think you have the knowledge to built stations with much longer station rail segments. And because so far there aren´t any stations for long passenger trains at the workshop, I guess you would get big big credit from the community (and from me) if you would be able to build those.
Justin Credible 16 Sep, 2018 @ 10:35am 
@Ionwind: O.K., I´ve followed your advice and switched from Sharp Junction Angles to Fine Road Anarchy. I can confirm that I don´t have any problems any longer with placing the station!
Karumäki  [author] 16 Sep, 2018 @ 3:57am 
@mike, @高Hq and @scuzzmeup: I've updated the asset so that it shouldn't have the distance too short issue anymore. Please keep me updated if any other issues arise.
Karumäki  [author] 16 Sep, 2018 @ 12:33am 
Ok, I think I found out what's wrong. I'll see if I can fix it. This asset can be placed if you have Fine Road Anarchy . Without it you will get a distance too short error.
Karumäki  [author] 16 Sep, 2018 @ 12:15am 
@Mike: Sharp Junction Angles only allows, well, building sharp angles. Apparently that mod is also outdated and possibly broken. Could you do me a favor and try disabling the Sharp Junction Angles mod from the Content Manager and then trying to place the station?

Fine Road Anarchy and Fine Road Tool allow much more freedom (and they're not broken), I recommend trying them out.

"It actually has a bazillion sub-buildings." know the struggle, feeeel the struggle :)
Justin Credible 15 Sep, 2018 @ 1:46pm 
No. I have "Sharp Junction Angles" as an anarchy mod and it doesn´t matter if I toggle it on or of, no way to place the station anywhere.
Karumäki  [author] 15 Sep, 2018 @ 12:47pm 
@Mike: can you place the station using an anarchy mod?
Justin Credible 15 Sep, 2018 @ 11:09am 
I have the same problem as scuzzmeup. It is not possible to place the station anywhere at any kind of road. I never had that problem with any other building and also not with your Tomashavn Train Station (2-track).
高Hq 15 Sep, 2018 @ 1:32am 
过近的距离,错误提示!!!
Karumäki  [author] 14 Sep, 2018 @ 10:00pm 
@scuzzmeup: can you be more specific on what's wrong? Where or how are you trying to place a road and does it have something to do with this asset? A road anarchy mod is typically a solution for these kind of issues.
scuzzmeup 14 Sep, 2018 @ 8:39pm 
Keep getting distance too short errors when trying to place on a road. Anyone else run into that?
Hrafninn Fjordur 14 Sep, 2018 @ 11:57am 
This is really great. Well done!
Strechnitz 13 Sep, 2018 @ 2:08pm 
A great station. Thank you.
