Thanks for getting back to me so quickly @Jessabeans . I'm still amazed at what an excellent grasp you have on this project. Looking at the CAW pics... the track wouldn't be a long continual line joining the 3 stations, but will appear and reappear in and out of tunnels near the station lots and perhaps a few other picturesque places within the world, right? I'm OK with that since realism is great, but optics and functionality are even better. Am thinking though should not the London and Venice directional arrows be reversed?
Re your earlier post... for the number of train lots... since you indicated we have a max of 100 total for the world let's try to pare this down a bit. Thanks for your input everyone. The walking path could also allow us more flexibility to add additional train car lots later if we have allowance remaining so it's a great choice.
I'm thinking each train doesn't need to have all 3 dining cars so here's what I'm proposing. Open to other suggestions:
London station with shorter British Pullman train = 1 large lot or 2 lots (Version B )
I envision this train built into the station lot (engine + 2 or 3 cars). This is the only station lot crossing over the tracks. Am thinking we could fit this within a 64x40 lot (perhaps a standard 64 x 64 if space allows) since the cars will be butted together with 1 space in between and could also be a tad shorter. If using Version B, we could put the whole train into 1 lot across from the station.
Paris station lot plus 6 side-by-side lots behind it (VSOE, Version A) = 7 lots (engine + mix of car types)
Venice station plus 6 side-by-side lots behind it (VSOE, Version A) = 7 lots (engine + mix of car types)
I've started creating a list of potential lots for everyone to input for inclusion. Will post that soon.
Unfortunately my poor old computer doesn't like CAW so it crashed. Thank you for providing the lot size testing file. Going to check that out tomorrow :smiley:
