A beach front haven turned into a nightmare for those local residents and business owners and feel they would have pushed back very hard against the proposal, now they have a noisy elevated freight passage going through their back yard. I think it would have been best to keep the passenger station as a terminating passenger line and just before it, have a freight line branch off and pass the town near the edge of the lake to preserve the beach view over a lake view.

@christianpenyak6276Ай бұрын
I work for a large global paper company with mills all over the world. I'd offer 2 criticisms to the build. Land is cheap where these are built and large earth moving isn't really a concern; the mill and cargo terminal would be on the same level because the tracks would go throughout the plant anyway. With this, either you'd have to truck it to the rail, or build a very expensive conveyor system that handles grade as well. An average weight of a roll of paper can be about 6000 pounds, not something you want going on a slope. Second, never ever would a highway be built over the plant. The way one of our plants were built where we did this exact thing, was build the highway along the river, put the plant on the other side of the highway so that the road separates the plant and water, and just build the pumping station and a few hundred meters of pipe to get it to the pulping machines. Having a highway overhead removes so many growth potentials like constructing new stacks, and expansion of the facility. I could see, that whole pad plus some being leveled and the soil pushed out exactly as you did into the bay. This will give room for the facility with rail in the hills and then the highway along the coast. This would also making the trucking in and out of the mill safer without such a grade to the highway. When rolls are shipped via truck, there is a lot of empty space in the trailer as they max weight out long before they run out of floor space. This leaves room for the rolls to shift in transit which almost always damages the product and serves as a very dangerous situation for the driver again due to the weight involved.
@Olie_d94Ай бұрын

You were not exagerating on stream, this really was a juicy one. A couple weird things that stood out to me.. 1. You moved the station from 6th to 7th, not sure what the point was for it since you could have left it on 6th and have a passing track for the cargo to follow straight. Considering also that the county could preserve right of way next to the current tracks all the way back to the edge of the map current spur so that in the future it could be expanded into divided cargo/passenger if the traffic warrants it. 2. For the one place were a sea of parking would be expected, there's no way to park at that factory in the middle of nowhere. I guess they will all need to get on their bikes :D

Shouldn't you also add a passenger station at the factory? With the railway already in place, it'd make sense to do it, as it employs many workers, some of which might prefer to take a train instead of driving a car.

Some of the slopes you left in the landscape around the new mill gives me serious landslide concerns. Knowing the geology around the Great Lakes, those hills you cut into I think are supposed to be part of a lakeshore moraine, judging by how a river delta cuts right through it. The subsoil would be loosely packed till and loess. Any slopes steeper than a few degrees in that area would be super landslide prone, putting your road and rail at risk!! I'd recommend using impermeable retaining walls, especially on either side of the rail. Tunneling the rail would be safest, but unrealistically expensive.

The idea that you could move a pulp and paper mill by a few miles to avoid smell complaints is just funny to me. My family did some road trips through northern Ontario when I was younger, and you could smell those towns on highway 11 twenty minutes before you could see them, at highway speeds. (And yeah, it's vile.) But maybe the land area of the county is bigger than it looks.

Love the reasoning behind the highway project and I agree 100%. Coastal highways aren’t loved but in this case it makes an incredible amount of sense. The elevated section was a great touch. Great episode as always, it’s been a hot minute; looking forward to seeing how the back and forth between Sheila and Chuckles evolves.

I have no idea if CS2 has this functionality, but in europe there's no way that elevated station would be approved post-development - it would definitely have to be a tunnel.

Phil... have you ever heard of the Bowater Paper Plant, and more specifically, the time that fog seeded by its emissions and cooling ponds caused a 99-vehicle pile-up on nearby I-75, resulting in 42 injuries and 12 deaths? Please imagine that, but in a situation where a vehicle getting rear-ended can cause it to plummet off a bridge and into the paper mill. And there's no shoulder to pull over to so you're not driving in literally blinding fog, because bridge. The state (after the NTSB investigation, and eventually a lawsuit) put up fog detectors that would trigger highway closure in the event of such fog forming again, and the paper mill is closed down now anyways, but proper planning could have prevented it in the first place, and you've just made the potential for a much more horrific version of the accident.

With the soccer field now doubling function as a flood control, you can actually also use it during the winter as a natural ice rink. Flood it on purpose, have it freeze over. No soccer during winter anyway. In my hometown (NL) we do that with a paved inline skating track, and the grass that surrounds it survives it just fine. Triple functionality!

Good call on the sunken sports field at the end. Many fields and smaller stadiums have steep embankments around that... they double as seating, since there's not much room in the stands.

This was another great build, Phill. I think Lewis Lumber Company will have a fantastic stay in Magnolia county. Lewis lumber Company was one of my favorite builds in your Verde Beach build. I can’t say I am a fan of the highway going over the building, plus, I’ve got a perfect name for that highway. Magnolia County Route 1.

I am making my way through the series from the beginning, on episode 14 right now. I noticed something that I didn't see any feedback on from episode 13 so thought I would come here so you could hopefully see my message. The Marina in Chairity Bay doesn't have a boat launch. I know there aren't boats in the game but I feel like it's a necessity for the sake realism. Great series!

I think that you should add some transit options to the Paper Factory. This will cut back on the traffic since you do not have adequate parking for the workers.
@CanuckErrantАй бұрын
The irony of rezoning the railway section in Paradise Bay is that low-density buildings can actually grow underneath the rail bridge - they can even develop under elevated highway! - but high-density ones can't, meaning that they use the space less effectively...
@evanwinter2532Ай бұрын
Parking on the new factory campus? I’m sure they would never build this destination without well overcompensating for parking as there is no off site parking with a bus route, or public transport to and from this huge employer that is quite rural. Further, with 500 employees, this is probably a two shift plant so there should be adequate parking for around 300 vehicles at least at this plant.

I think it would be good and reasonable to create a bypass for cargo at Paradise Bays trainstation so that cargo would not be obstructed by a passenger train stopping and it would be much safer for the waiting residents. Great build nevertheless!!

I'm not gonna lie I dont understand why you can't build an elevated railroad on top of a road like Chicago and other cities. It will lower the amount of eminent domain while also keeping efficiency for the city. I don't know if you can do this currently in City Skylines but I hope that some advocacy arise for it eventually.

As much as I personally love trains, i feel running an expensive elevated line through a downtown for cargo only would never realistically happen today. However, in the early to mid 1900s, when trains were king, i could absolutely see this happening. Most cities had tons of tracks running along or near their waterfront. Also, 25:55 with that Toronto zoning

No doubt that elevated cargo rail through the prime real estate in Paradise bay would have had residents fuming.

I hope a developer buys up the properties right across from the new mixed use and apartment towers and puts in row homes. I think it's a realistic investment that would also help negate lack of customers in the future. Plus it provide more housing for younger factors employees who might have a family already but who can't afford single family housing just yet. Really fun build!

That elevated railway is really cool. It reminds me a lot of the B & O Railroad Viaduct in Bellaire, Ohio. It's a big section of elevated railway with a curve just like the one you built. It also makes an appearance in the movie Unstoppable, where a train nearly flies off of it lol
