I tried out adding in decorative train tracks that connect the city areas.

I don't really like how they look. I think I am going to switch to the other track for that lays flat on the ground anywhere the trains don't sit on top of them. It's hard to line them up with only straight tracks, and the flat brown ones have a curved piece. The bridge pieces could look nice occasionally on the mountains, but seeing them everywhere feels like too much. It's possible it won't be so overwhelming once the trees are in.

Thoughts?

I agree so many raised bridge pieces seems a bit too much @Jessabeans .

Edited to modify my answer. I did not look well enough at the screenshots last night. What if instead of all the raised bridges some sections of the raised track went “into” the mountains range / hills rather that over? Could you put a small single tunnel* where the track approached and left the mountain and hide any gaps with boulders and bushes? And as you said, other sections can be partially hidden with bushes? Or just as you said use the raised tracks in straight bursts near the stations. You are doing a fantastic job so what works best from your perspective ?

BTW...it’s worth repeating how much I love the mountains

* edited again... if the CAW tunnel is too large for that purpose, perhaps we can make a fake tunnel lot for placement as desired. Just throwing out ideas. I would need to go in game to experiment this evening.
