    That station on the left reminds me of Silverton station... Something tells me that's what you're going for.

     

    I like the concept, but I think the landscape could perhaps use some work. You got a mountain edge and a huge flat surface directly next to it. No railway builder in the right mind would in that case choose the difficult and expensive way via the mountains to go to the mines on the right.

     

    Nonetheless, this is RCT and we can do whatever we like. I'll look forward to the next update of this!

    Yeah, I realized that the way that I wanted it to look at the end of everything was incongruous with any sort of realistic railroad - ie, the use of space would not be all that good. Makes absolutely no sense. So I decided to just ignore it and make it look good the best I could.

    After playing railroads online though it is getting increasingly uncomfortable to see such a roundabout way to get somewhere xD 
  • Description

    Brent Collins was one of those people others would describe as “bad with money.” Not that he was steeped in debt or crashing corvettes - to the contrary, Collins was actually a very successful businessman. A businessman, who in the minds of others, put his wealth into absurd things. Absurd things like a railroad.


    And that was how Brent found himself owning a ghost town. Determined to prove to his family and friends that he hadn’t tossed millions in the gutter, he set out to realize his dream. The railroad tracks were relaid, the roads leading to the town improved, and the dying embers of the town started to glow bright once more.


    So it was that in 1971, the Cerro Plata Narrow Gauge Railway was born. The town began to be restored, with the old Town Hall becoming a museum, and the Cast Iron Cafe offering authentic chuckwagon meals.


    Slowly but surely, Brent watched as others began believing in his dream…
