Making Routes Pay | Transport Fever 2 Evolution

[@citizentrucker]

i paint and trim the tracks the lazy way. i have a solo train i ride, give it a route, then i just hold the button as i ride the train lol lazy way of clearing trees and such out of the way too lol

[@Benjamin.Jamin.]

That's genius! I'm copying that.

[@mikestrainsthings]

There is a mod called Lower Grass that removes the in between track grass

[@jamesknauer540]

Of course, the most useful bit of Feverlore concerns the revelation of the nom de la strip-teaseuse "Senseless Plateaus". All it needs is a Hump Yard.

[@True_NOON]

The painting is deeply appreciated, its a small detail that with the default track can make it shine the little further needed bit

[@ikbenspeedy]

I just wanted to say: I love the thumbnail!

[@mrmacc1312]

I have played TF for years but I have never got to grips with huge sorting goods stations like you experts build. Could I ask you to make a series on how to…things like how to connect all the cities, all the goods sorting from central points then back out etc? Love your humour and narration!

[@METALFREAK03]

you mean a goods hub? He built a really good one back in tpf1 I think it was called Mainline series. It's basically the same concept in 2, other than nowadays you only get two resources per city rather than the full 5 resources that they need/want/desire to be supplied with.

[@METALFREAK03]

hang on, no he did do it in tpf2 also: watch?v=IgRhIcXSqYM

[@colonelfailure]

I acknowledge your request. Consider it a firm "maybe".

[@Syn_1]

Short version: -build a massive station, so 6-8 tracks. -Connect lines to it, with trains bringing in goods and trains taking out goods. -goods can swap lines as long as it connects to its end goal. So you can have a train drop off a ton of stone and another train will come along and pick it up as long as it will be dropped off at a construction material factory down the line. -Add trucks to deliver any dropped-off goods from a station to the factory, or city that needs it.

[@mrmacc1312]

@ thank you!

[@mozofoz]

Yes I had discovered that little tidbit myself ... a simple bus to train station from middle of town seems to boost travelers exponentially ??? no one wants to walk a couple of blocks lol.

[@jayzo]

A suggestion for that Art Deco pillar Colonel: lower it so the cross bar sits under the girder of the bridge rather than clipping through.

[@colonelfailure]

Didn't notice the clipping. Thanks, I'll look.

[@williamdowns1917]

Jenny Agutter... Ah yes. Her in Logan's Run and the TV show Charlies Angels happened about the same time. It was a VERY good time to be a 13 year old boy.

[@Floody468]

Johnny French looks good but costs 2x the price at 1M per year upkeep though. Also Nice bridge mod

[@benjamincorey6259]

"Mos Eisley spaceport. You will never find a more wretched hive of scum and villainy. We must be cautious." Need i say more?

[@Julius_Hardware]

Or as Jingles put it: "Mos Eisley spaceport. You will never find a more wretched hive of scum and villainy." - he's obviously never been to Portsmouth!

[@tigonologdring9189]

Lovely Glenfailure Viaduct, top notch. Pullman line worthy? No, probably not.

[@pdwyer1100]

Definitely felt a little giddy :)

[@TheLeonhamm]

'Ouuh! should I do this ..?' 'Ohh! should I do that ..?' Awwhh! We wanted to see it (Of course). ;o) And now Barry Turnups looms on the horyision .. Yey! (More your Honor Blackman/Shirley Eaton, Diana Rigg/ Eleanor Bron, even Joanna Lumpey here, still Jenny Agutter brings the aura of a delightful smile.)

[@huseyx2]

11:12 if the youtube career ever goes awry, I'm sure Senseless Plateaux can make a decent living. Bit niche but I'm sure you'd find a market

[@vaydendar]

Sounds like a new town/city name.

[@duskydusk4894]

Senseless Plateaux should play brutalball

[@papasmurfette007]

Colonel Senseless Plateaux Does Dallas (or Castle Rock anyway)...

[@adachishai8492]

That thumbnail is a one to die for!

[@bob_._.]

Of a certain age, certainly. But not necessarily of a certain nationality.

[@angrywelshgamer763]

Ohhh, adore the Derail Valley reference 😆❤

[@gamiwombat]

Thats a great Screenshot.

[@shepherd1701]

If you are interested in huge train bridges, look up the Lethbridge Viaduct. Built in the early 1900's, it's the largest and longest bridge of its type!

[@METALFREAK03]

So now the series should be called....devolution?

[@spookychicken]

Riding train is the reason I get out of bed :)

[@colonelfailure]

I always use commuter lines but usually wait until the towns are larger.

[@sickboy481]

Hey Colonel, have you seen Derail Valley has had a huge new patch? Any possibility it could make an appearance?

[@colonelfailure]

I have seen it. It's unlikely to make an appearance, but never say never.

[@sickboy481]

@@colonelfailure Sweet, thanks for the reply.

[@bubbles69138]

dont forget the supports!!

[@technocardy]

Senseless Plateaus hahaha

[@mrhedgebull1658]

Is Mos Eisley getting a bus service of some sort to get people to the train station?

[@Julius_Hardware]

Cable car up the cliff!

[@KorbinianMuc]

Can you show the little taxis riding in the city with the airport? With the 6(?) people capacity there is probably a lot of traffic.

[@iLied12]

This will seem like nitpicking but shouldn’t CAST Commuter have Lightrail in there being a tram route?

[@AsloAso]

Have you seen the new update for Derail Valley?

[@colonelfailure]

I have.

[@tokermongamer352]

✌🏻

[@pdwyer1100]

I think your train won't make it back to it's home station with that branch junction after you signalled it, there's no turnout?

[@yelnaw]

Sir your terraforming gives me anxiety

[@colonelfailure]

Grit teeth, embrace the madness.

[@AryeZam]

You should drop this bst and get back to Soviet resources game.

[@philipbossy4834]

People telling him what to do is THE reason he's not doing Soviet Ressources ever again.

[@philipbossy4834]

The Zephir might make money if you manage to make a route that goes downhill both ways 🥸
