Estación Central del Paraguay
Estación Central del Paraguay (Paraguay Central Station) is a culturally significant railway station in Paraguay’s capital city, Asunción.
Paraguay developed one of the first railways that existed in South America which it acquired from Britain under the first constitutional government of the Republic, under the mandate of Carlos Antonio López.
Completed in 1864 the Estación Central del Paraguay is one of the most emblematic buildings of the Carlos Antonio López Railway era. Its French Italian style was designed by British and Italian Architects Alonso Taylor and Alejandro Ravizza respectively.
Today it is already considered one of the architectural heritages of the country, the railway station is used as a venue for artistic and cultural events and has a museum celebrating Paraguay having the last steam railway in the world.
This asset was commissioned by Bastet for his city build of San Theodoros, a fictional country located in South America. San Theodoros is a prototypical banana republic coming straight from the universe of world-famous Belgian comic series Tintin.

Geometry
85K tris, 400 tris LOD
Textures: 2048 x 2048, LOD 128 x 128
All elements of this asset use the same textures so if you use the Loading Screen mod the textures will be shared by all the elements and this will reduce any load on your machine.
Despite the fact that the modern station is a museum, this asset is a functional railway station. Its unusual design means that the platforms and rails are at a 32 degree angle from the front of the building.
The station can be found in the ‘Rail Transport’ tab.
I’ve tried to make this asset as beautiful as the real building and therefore the geometry tri count is high and the textures large. All of the texture elements have been created specifically for this asset in order for full control over the final look.
Please try this asset out and if there are any problems let me know in the comments below.
