Description
It's my very first work in the road editor, and I must say it's probably the most profound.

One thing that's always annoyed me about this game (at least as one of those "dumb American" types) was how all train lines had to have overhead wires. In some places, the electricity flows through the tracks, and in some parts of the world (like most of North America), electric trains aren't in use as opposed to diesel trains. So this very simple network mod gets rid of the wires and metal supports that hold said wires.

Again, it's a very simple fix and I'm still learning this road modding tool. Perhaps eventually I'll have customized roads and even custom bridges... But don't hold your breath.

Also, I may have not completely eliminated those pesky wires, but I'm pretty sure I did.

You are right. Overhead wires are a pain in the ass and kills the american vibe in american cities.

This is great thanks. Here in Australia, we have electric trains in the main centres, but out bush (outback,etc.) the trains are diesel powered.

This is by far the best, useful and simple road/track added to the workshop. I will hold my breath for your customized roads.

Hi So do I understand this right that this mode does the same thing like this one ? https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=774449380 or it gets rid of cables only where do you want?

thanks
