The Transportation Of Passengers | Transport Fever 2 | Race To The North | Episode 3

Hello and welcome Transport Fever 2 series!
It's time for our weekly trip to the UK where today we're going to be working on getting some passengers moving on our map! We're looking at having two big stations, one North of the Thames and one South of the Thames, with some tram services in between serving as London Underground routes.
Our first passenger railway line seems pretty straight forward, London to Birmingham. This will get a route between two of Britain's biggest cities which will surely be good for expansion and profits.

Just for laughs, you should call the stations North London for the WCML and ECML and South London for the Kent and Sussex services.

Well I mean there'd be no confusion as to where the stations were located would there haha :D

Hi Joe, found this gem of nerdy channel in the late East Yorkshire era and very excited to be starting not one but two new series live. As a resident of 'that London' I can tell you that in real life the slow lines out of King's Cross go over the fast lines on a flying junction just north of the station (technically only one does since the ECML runs slow lines on the outside of the fast lines). I was thinking this could get the slow lines on the right heading out of London which would make it possible for the fast lines to bypass Northampton in future without any crossovers. Keep the great videos coming!

Re 22:35 I find the best way to do crossings like this is just use a small piece of track across the gap, raising it until I find the sweet spot to make just the bridge, then do the connections off either side. Otherwise you end up fighting the track builder a tonne

[@ParkeraNZ]

Game sounds are a little low especially the train ones Jow. Fun episode, fences and all.

[@kvart186]

We have no option but to clooose early 😁😁😁 Precious! That station should be London Eustonbone St Crosspool Street

[@JoeDobsongaming]

I love it! Though would that name fit on the screen? We'll have to try it :D

[@Thatspuremental]

So thats euston marlebone st pancrese Liverpool street kings cross

[@iAaronCasey]

Great Video, I used King Cross as my main terminal station for the ECML and WCML Gives a good variety going into the station love it!

[@JoeDobsongaming]

Hopefully when we have some more trains running it'll look awesome :D

[@iAaronCasey]

@@JoeDobsongaming Cannot wait 😊

[@SingleTheShot]

you could boat food cargo into london, but then youd probably still need some trucks tho, depends on distribution of the food shops would be funny given boats normally go the other way on the thames

[@SingleTheShot]

oh you could put next to that goods factory and it would serve double purpose for whenever you need that

[@Expired05040]

8:13 that sound had my dying 😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@AdamHinckley]

15:48 you know that you could copy the line names instead of typing them out? just do ctrl + A then ctrl + C to copy it over

[@johnnyboy3949]

Get rid off the grass that is in the middle of the st cross station platforms! Terraform it off. It looks stupid

[@AlexGamer-eb5qx]

Finally a video of this wonderfull series

[@stephenrobbins2038]

The station should be called MaryleEuston St Cross.

[@georgeratcliffe7752]

Please do more decorationing in future, I know it's not your normal style but it looks good!

[@32446]

Great video Joe hope your ok today?!

[@rs8382]

Hi Joe I love the content on this channel I was just wondering if you could tell us how to get the timetable mod that you use on openttd with the automated function. Edit: Also, when I download the patch you use, it says it is suspicious. Is this a serious issue, or is the patch safe to use. Thanks.

[@jayedmunds5665]

Joe was today years old when he found out how to draw a wall 😂😂😂😂

[@gobiwaq]

That bush-to-wall ratio? Yer gangsta-trippin mate

[@MIster....]

Please let be more of this

[@nathanlowe567]

Can you put the class 350

[@AdamHinckley]

2:39 why not do three stations like I said in the last video? two separate stations for WCML and ECML and one for southern lines, think it's better to have three separate stations, that way, you won't have bottle neck if you had one station for WCML and ECML

[@nashorn9745]

Build more Trains instead of painting grass.

[@True_NOON]

Joe why do you never clean the tracks? Is it just lazyness?
