Wizard Hole North | Transport Fever 2 Evolution

[@torak1298]

Hi Colonel, I'm PlaneSimple, author of the Mark 1 coaches pack - I've been watching this channel every since I got into Transport Fever all the way back in 2018 - it warms my heart to see you using and enjoying my mod! Sorry for the spam of variants... If you want capacity, TSO coaches (in the 'mainline passenger coaches' group) have the highest. That mod was a lockdown project while I was at university. Looking forward to this! :)

[@technocardy]

Thanks for making an incredible mod pack!!

[@colonelfailure]

It's a terrific pack, thanks for making it. Absolutely exhaustive amount of variety.

[@Sargon_of_Cincinnati]

It was the wind. Magnified by the channeling of the valley.

The KZbin peak of the week from one of the few, if not the only, seriously good TF2 KZbinrs.

[@cannes76]

Oh man do I love the appearance of the obelisk. That's absolutely epic! XD

[@sickboy481]

It was the Tacoma Narrows bridge, now used as a case study for resonant frequency.

[@amyworrall9246]

I definitely like the thinking out loud! BTW, I take it you know about pressing C to not snap? That might have let you get the station nearer the road, maybe?

[@rich-tp2dx]

almost every station I place I used shift+C. Snap is great but only for grid cities and parallel road/tracks

[@technocardy]

Golly Wizard Hole looks glorious! The flurry of steam locos coming and going is going to be quite the sight to behold!

[@572Btriode]

Glad you took some awnings off the stations, I delete them all immediately so I can see the people on the platforms, and it never rains in TPF2 so it's never a problem.

[@bjarnenilsson80]

Ah nice to see mrs Mihhins again, she has been mossed

[@kevino6618]

Nice episode of your videotronic entertainment endeavours, Colonel. Love the First Class dining trains.

[@tomosmerivale6297]

Love that you made a first class only train.

[@hatsjie2]

@55:00 you can also click on 'multiple units' directly (not on steam/electric/diesel), it may show more stuff there

[@MrAdrianSW]

If you didnt want your house knocked down to make way for a railway, you shouldnt have built it in such a railway usable location...

[@opposingcritter]

Poor rapture, that was some very UGLY ROAD RAGE indeed

[@Wolfgangtailchase]

"Welcome back old friend" 😂

[@UKTVGlod]

Aah for, well, (I'm 20 minutes in to the videotronic entertainment) but for a minute there I thought you were going for two up two down between Rapture and the Wizard Hole for glorious live action track racing

[@stirloin6833]

Regarding the pursuit (or lack thereof) of rolling stock authenticity I believe the modellers maxim is your friend here: my railway, my rules

[@papasmurfette007]

Surely "Senior Flattener" should be "Senior Flatty" for semi-humorous cross-series-pollination purposes?...

[@spookychicken]

I'm not just vexed, I'm also a little perturbed 😆

[@bubbles69138]

59:00 just so you know... that engine can barely move that train :P

[@mrhipbone]

Now Colonel you may have personally abandoned the Miggins narrative, but there are many of us rather sad Miggo die-hards who keep the dream alive! #mrsmiggins #neverforget #miggoscakeshop

[@GroundedGamer855]

Great video as always Colonel! Out of interest what mic do you use for your videos? I need a new one and really can't decide! It sounds crisp :)

[@colonelfailure]

I use a Shure SM7B with an inline preamp. I should use some compression to clean it up a little more, but "raw" is pretty solid.

[@GroundedGamer855]

@ Thanks a lot mate, That is one I’ve been looking at. I noticed there was the usb version too but from a little reading it looks like the pre amp version is the one to for. Thanks again :)

[@lostwizard]

I've noticed that building parallel tracks across a road tends to lead to that uneven track business. It looks snapped but it makes that uneven nonsense. And, naturally, the smoothing gun doesn't fix it because the tracks are already wonky. There's a trick to avoid it but it's fiddly and annoying. At least I find it so.

[@Lellela]

I've always wondered on this map, did you just rename the cities, or are you using a city name list generator I haven't found yet? I always love seeing some of my favorite sci-fi and fantasy references in your videos. It's about TIME Gallifrey got some service. :D

[@colonelfailure]

It's my own custom list (I've around 60 cities I routinely use). I always rename every city - makes it more personal)

[@eileennovak1656]

Lovely bridgework.

[@Tazoslo]

Hitting the signals is much easier if you zoom out and just click on the icon...much easier :D

[@woodywilson5518]

Ah, Here I was thinking that you went through the portal that opened in the under school.

[@lucascsmith]

"...[from] whence you came" 🙏👍

[@jayzo]

Can I offer a suggestion for stations like Raptuere? Build the crossings under the railway _under_ the tracks rather than over. Build the road first and build the railway high enough to bridge over,all you have to do then is make sure the bit where the station interacts with the road is the same height and it looks more natural. The town would've followed the land and the railway would have come through town on an embankment/viaduct (embankment is cheaper and IMO looks better) and would be level compared to the ground, and this can be used to get a road neatly under the railway.

[@mrnar6293]

Wouldn't it make more sense to send 4 tracks through Gallifrey then split to Silent hill? It would require less sharp of a bend to get to Iron Forge

[@hatsjie2]

@23:10 that is simply not true. different towns have different alignments

[@colonelfailure]

I'll have to double check.

[@VerilyVerbatim]

Is there a list of all of the town names, somewhere?

[@williamdowns1917]

I seriously doubt 1951 would have the level of multi-lane streets that you seem to like. No need to change it on my behalf, but I'm at least hoping it bothers you just a little now that I've pointed it out. I doubt it will, but couldn't resist.

[@colonelfailure]

In major cities? I'd wager they weren't that unusual.

[@williamdowns1917]

@@colonelfailure New York & Paris? Sure. Towns the size modeled in your TF2 map? Not so sure. I currently live in a town in the US that's about the size of the ones in your map (at least visually) and the only one that's 4 lanes are the main one going through town, and a more modern non-interstate bypass.

[@rich-tp2dx]

@@williamdowns1917 if you were expecting TF2 to scale realistically I have unfortunate news for you. the developers have been open that some creative liberties were taken when it comes to scale/time passing/economic for enjoyment purposes.

[@TheLeonhamm]

Wonkey junctioning ..? Yey! ;o)

[@paddy4170]

Since when are we playing subway simulator? 😉
