I might be late but when a mommy train and a daddy train love each very much they run into each other and then you pop out in the depot

Thanks for taking the time to put this together, nicely done. Only watched it to get an idea and tips on the track signalling and ended up watching the whole thing! Will certainly check out the next in the series.

[@TheClumsyGeekGaming]

+Andrew Pozzi awesome! Glad to hear it, and yeah, more episodes coming for sure. Loving this game!

[@thorn3041]

What you are calling a passing lane, it is called a siding. It’s more of a parking space for trains along the lines to trade out crew members but is also used on a single track line so that trains running late or In the other direction can pass. You can use passenger bus stops to deliver cargo with in the city with out building two truck stops.

[@TheClumsyGeekGaming]

Thanks! Yeah I think I heard it being called differently elsewhere, too. Might be a regional thing.

Hello from the Future :) . Just bought this at like 4 Euros from Steam ( I like buying dated, but good games rly cheap, and TF2 is still too expensive XD ) a few days ago, and am having enormous fun figuring everything out . FIrst few starts ofc didnt go rly well, but by now I am having a 1850 map at around 1.5 mio profit/yr. in 1883 already . The intricacies regarding routeplanning are great to learn and work with . Thanks for the playlist, looking forward to watch it all and see what I can learn from your playthrough :) .

[@Cryo2005]

Awesome! Exactly what I was looking for. Thank you for making the effort. I know how much work this is! Very well done.

[@TheClumsyGeekGaming]

+Cryo2005 my pleasure. Enjoy! :)

[@turbostoep]

When you made a train station , click it and upgrade so it has 2 roads connecting to it .

[@TheClumsyGeekGaming]

+turbostoep ah yes the second road connection thing. Thanks!

[@zekecheeks6526]

your voice is so soothing! will continue to watch this series! :)

[@TheClumsyGeekGaming]

+Zeke Thomas thanks! Enjoy!

[@NewVisionNL]

first of all a nice video, secondly, I did the first 150 to 200 years using only passenger trains and they grow very well even without cargo planes or boats. At that time you unlock all good vehicles and in the time of +/- 200 years a good banking account of about 1000 million. and third might be an idea, for example, do not connect a train at a road if the costs are high but so building this building just off the road will not give you unnecessary costs for the burial of the entire station. then make a connection to the road so you can save enormous costs. Have fun playing ;)

[@TheClumsyGeekGaming]

+NewVision NL thanks man, great ideas! Will have to try those sometime.

[@jazeroth322]

Thanks!!! The passing loop tips are exactly what I needed!!!

[@DEracingx]

What game i should go for? this one or the Transport Fever 2? Or other alternative? Thank you!

[@TheClumsyGeekGaming]

Highly recommend transport fever 2. It gets all the improvements and improves the graphics so much. I have an ongoing series on that, too: bit.ly/ClumsyTF2

[@marky5480]

Im trying to speed up the production of an oil line. So I made another train track, bought a train. My problem is when i set up my line, my trains share the same track instead of taking the other available line. My first line and second line are the same btw. But I want the trains to use two separate tracks.

[@TheClumsyGeekGaming]

+Mark Yanuaria it's kind of hard to explain in text, but what you most likely need to create is a track that connects the 2 tracks you have so the trains can switch lane when they switch directions. You'll can also put in signals, click them, make them 1-way to force the trains to find a different track if they're going the opposite direction.

[@Voidheartd]

Just keep in mind that one line can only utilize a single platform at a station. If you want to use more than one platform for the same thing, you'll have to setup separate lines. The game will automatically put the lines onto different platforms.

[@m0ther_bra1ned12]

Wouldn't mechanical junctions that long not work?

[@TheClumsyGeekGaming]

+Motherbrain Jr in real life? Not sure tbh. It works fine in-game though :p

[@LEIGHonPC]

Good Video man...very helpful indeed..keep up the good work :)

[@TheClumsyGeekGaming]

+LetsPlayTV happy to help. Thanks!

[@TheSometimeAfter]

in regards to train 'passes'. Is it possible to make a line that goes from destination A to destination B with 2 trains. The line starts single and changes to parallel. So train A uses left side track, train B uses right side. The signals stop them from using the single lines at the same time. Tried it, but couldnt work it out :S

[@TheClumsyGeekGaming]

+Indigo Foxx I did something similar in this vid, if I remember correctly. You put the signals right before the lanes merge, one on each side. We're not able to test this until a few more episodes, though, since trains are expensive especially in the beginning, but I'm sure it works from my other saved games.

[@TheSometimeAfter]

thanks clumsy, appreciate the comment. Soon after I posted that I managed to get it working by using only 2 signals. I was going a bit overboard with the number of signals I was using I guess. Both were set to stop an incoming train from going onto the single track. Worked :)

[@TheClumsyGeekGaming]

+Indigo Foxx nice! Yeah I think that's the basic idea. I'm still learning how to use them for more advanced layouts, but more or less those are the fundamentals. :)

[@salamal4155]

Great guide clumsy thank you !

[@TheClumsyGeekGaming]

+Malcolm Smith thanks my pleasure!

[@trbry.]

is it possible to turn off the magic turn around at station cheat?

[@TheClumsyGeekGaming]

+TRBRY I don't think so, but you can create the tracks to simulate the real thing, at least.

[@Silverbladestudios]

Great video! I love the game so far and you are one of the channel's who inspired me to play! BUT I am a bit confused on something in the game regarding cargo transport. I made a train line from the farm to the factory, production started, no problems there. From there I made a line from the factory to the city, wanting to transport the final goods (food) into the city (then once it's in the city it is further transported by trucks, the same system you have in this video except it is not for food). This was a separate line obviously with a separate train. There is one problem, the factory produces food but does not transfer it to the station to be transported. It just sits in the factory. It is connected to the factory and the train has the right wagons. Any idea?

[@TheClumsyGeekGaming]

+Silverbladestudios glad to hear it! About your question: main thing I could think of is it should be in the catchment area. Factory should light up when clicking the train station, truck station should be close to train station in the city, and finally the line for the trucks in the city should go to a station which has commercial bldgs (blue) in the catchment area.

[@tigru152]

what seed is that map ? please

[@charmingbeast7738]

I wonder if they will reply

[@TheClumsyGeekGaming]

Reply to what? 😉

[@louscannonmagoo9989]

Trucks can deliver to bus stops. Saves spending 100 odd thou on a second truck stop.

[@TheClumsyGeekGaming]

+Louscannon Magoo yeah true. The stop should ideally be on a side street, though, because later on it will cause lots of traffic.

[@dragonzgamesTEDz]

you could find the best population in two or three city and see what the resources near buy

[@TheClumsyGeekGaming]

+Steveo good tip! Yeah maybe we can find some easy wins.

[@QSmally]

Name your lines and write the colour and the name on paper, later make a 'To Do List'. Like make a City//City train line, or connecting a tram line. R of course replacing some old vencles with newer ones. By the way, you make great videos! I subbed! -Smally

Hi, nice LP mate! Europe has only a few little hills anyways ;-) the Alps, Pyrenees, Carpathian Mountains, Balkan Mountains.... But other than these few "hills" its all flat in Europe ;-) They really messed up alot of maps except the US ones.
