Currently I can only play console right now so I can’t download any cc.

    Some of the older Expansion Packs (Snowy Escape) had non-functional train stations, and now the recent Business & Hobbies pack has a semi-functional station that allows you to move between worlds by clicking on it, plus a 'watching trains' option as well. This is probably as close as we will get to having trains and transportation unless the game is significantly revised, but I do like the Business & Hobbies option of at least having a different way of moving between worlds within a gameplay explanation (not just using the phone to switch). Since The Sims 4 is very similar to The Sims 1 in terms of not having regular cars and completely open worlds, perhaps using some of The Sims 1 structures would work here. For example, a carpool or bus option for work / school. And in terms of semi-functional buildings in the worlds, if we have another vacation world in the future, what I would like to see would be an airport / cruise ship terminal that functions in the same way as the Business & Hobbies train station, in that you use it to go back at the end of the vacation. Lastly, and this is probably also more for vacation destinations, it would be nice to see a semi-interactive helicopter / landing pad that would work similar to the rocket ships. You could board it, it flies away, and then comes back a little while later. Probably something like a sightseeing helicopter would be a good in-world explanation.

  • It would be nice if they added more functionality to the big transport hubs like train stations. They occupy a lot of space in the neighbourhood, so there should be some more functionality added to them. They could add various interactions like buy a ticket to go somewhere (elders could have free tickets any time), daredevil/mischievous sims could have the option to ride without a ticket and maybe get a fine, use the bathroom, spot interesting trains like the Orient Express, the  Flying Scotsman and take pictures of them, eat or drink something at the train station cafe or restaurant, sleep in the waiting room, busk for tips, etc. 

  • I would like to play a sexy, feisty no nonsense female auto technician in the game. I would like to detail, fix and sell cars to illegal street racers in the game. 

    I will be expecting a new world filled with detailed terrain lining the streets everywhere from coast to desert. For street racing, buses and trains I would expect new gameplay that is base game and is compatible with existing packs. 

    It's time to take road trips to vacation destinations instead of a loading screen. I'm going to stop here after...Parents Need Cars.

    Agreed on all points. The train stations are already essentially quasi-rabbit holes (similar to the shops added to Enchanted by Nature), so adding clickable menu options to them with some moodlet possibilities seems like a small change / improvement that won't require new animation, new actions, or anything too serious from a difficulty to program standpoint. But it would add value to these locations and make them feel more like an integrated part of the world.
