Fab episode for Collabria, Ajax. Nice cab ride too.

Thank you. 😊 Though I am wondering if this was meant for another video... 🤔😉

Nice to see you are trying out what I suggested. After marking out the ring with the guide lines I then go to each town to measure how far out the station can be placed with 7 platforms. Then adjust the ring so as to run parallel past the station. I don't take heed of the lay of the land. So long as the bridges/tunnels are not to long I just place where I want it, if money runs out I let the game run at full speed for a while. When you were looking at the connection Boston/Portland you said at you would have to put more tracks in for the freight trains. I generally use the same loco's on all trains, that way they all travel at almost the same speed. This makes it easier when upgrading the trains that have reached the end of their livespan. Instead of just upgrading the one train I use the multi upgrade screen and click the box for 2 years and upgrade all those which have 2 years left.

Thanks. I think you may have noticed that careful (or indeed any) planning is not really my forte! Should I need extra room to branch off to a station, I'm sure the game will me rework that section of the main ring ... 🤞 I've not actually use the mass replacement option as yet, I suppose I really ought to at some point, if only to show off what it does. 🤔 As you suggest, that would allow me to keep my trains running at similar speeds. That said, I still like the idea of having separate passenger and freight paths.
