Beta feedback - Mass Transit System

It has been a few weeks since my last report.  I want to mention that I am an experienced player, this is my 5th city. I started playing a couple of months after SC was created. I've had a few clubs. The first club I created was a no-war club, 3 years later I learned about war. I was fortunate to learn from skilled war players. Played a lot of exciting games. SC has gone through many changes. 

My interest in SC had gone down somewhat, that is until I saw the beta train testing. I started a new club directly after. I am highly interested in where EA goes with this new system.

Regional items on top of Capital items became too much. I do not like regions for that reason. Simply put, there are seriously way too many items in play.  I left that city behind and never looked back. With that being said, ... having trains travel from the capital to regions would be an AWESOME site!! (IF there were NO regional items, lol)

SC has a lot of items in play. With this new beta I feel EA should have given a certain amount of train $ to use in creating 'tracks... earning more train $ along the way to continue building it. Something reasonable of course. The infrastructure of Tracks & roads always needs work done. Train $ should be earned and used to deal with the train system. Capital items are available in the global HQ. Why would anyone want to waste their train $ (which takes time to earn) on regular capital items that you can get from global, club member, friend, or make? 

Although yes I did spend real money on the train-  what EA does with this diamond in the rough will determine whether I spend any more going forward. Such fabulous opportunities for the Train System. *****I hope when it IS released ... many of us become happily surprised and eager to continue playing SC with a worthwhile Train System ;-)  SC is by far one of my favorite games.
