Description:

It’s a contemporary and imaginary train station with 6 tracks and a large station hall, made for my city of Tomashavn. The station is somewhat inspired by Jyväskylä Central Station (2002) in Finland.

Please note that the parking lots seen in the picture are not included in the asset!

Fine Road Anarchy mod should not be needed (anymore) to place this asset, but I still strongly recommend this mod.

I’m aware that at the moment cims just walk across the tracks. I’ll try to remember to update their paths.

Background

So I needed a train station with about 6 to 8 tracks. And the station had to be contemporary. And I didn’t want it to have subway station or bus station attached, so I ended up creating my own station. See also the 2-track and 4-track versions (without the station hall).

Stats

It has stats and triangles and a LOD and stuff. It actually has a bazillion sub-buildings. The construction cost and other effects are about 75 % of the multiplatform vanilla station. Cims should be able to walk through the station without boarding a train.

The station platform is 176 m (22 u) long, not including the 5 m ramps at the ends. The double-track station track between the switches is shorter than that due to certain game limits, sorry.

Please notice that the station is meant to be placed on leveled terrain. If you alter the terrain after placing the stations, some parts of it might get a bit wonky and something else might also happen.

Screenshots

Screenshots have been taken with Daylight classic on. The asphalt is painted with Surface Painter. VIVID LUT is used. Map theme is NotSoRocky European.

If you use this asset in your city, I’d be happy to see some screenshots! I’ll add the best shots to the asset page!
