    The town names seem to be connected to railway history. Motala is a town in Sweden which had a locomotive factory back in the day. Creusot in France has an Alstom factory and high speed rail lines. Birkenhead has the Mersey railway. 🤔

    the double ended train is called double fairlie, there are some at Ffestiniog railway, so if you want to see some in real life, that's the best place to see them

    I used to live in Birkenhead. nice to see my hometown in a game :) also Janus (rhymes with bum-hole) "In Roman mythology, Janus was the god of doors, gates, and transitions". often depicted as having two faces, hence the double ended locomotive.

    @entropic-decay Před 3 měsíci +5

    one thing I don't think I've seen IRL with train networks that I'd love to see more of is what I refer to as "diverter rails" - essentially, instead of the main line going right through a station, the station splits off from the main line and then re-merges on the other end, allowing trains that aren't going to a particular station to just go by without even going through the platform. Also allows stations to be worked on, renovated and so on without just closing that whole line. It's essentially just a single extra bit of redundancy that lets the entire system run smoother when spots undergo maintenance.

  • @bobbys332
    @bobbys332 Před 3 měsíci +8

    After watching this I gave it a shot and got 1:08:12 which puts me 3:12 over the time limit and just shy of 3 stars. Managed the other goals but I lost time in not starting the copper pipe train as soon as possible (I wanted to complete the copper city mission first) and forcing it and the steel goal train to share a good bit of track and 1 station meaning a few times they had to wait for each other. A very fun little puzzle game that could use a few improvements such as being able to tell a train which station platforms it should use or which path to take to get to it's destination (since the shortest might be shared by a few trains while the longer is better for a "direct" line). Looking forward to seeing where this goes.

  • @lonewolf4215

    @gaysarahk Před 3 měsíci +53

    Any time you rate a bridge lower than 6, I have to compare it to the wooden one in Hydroneer that you gave a 5.9. I understand the reasoning behind the 5.9, but I have to think it was vastly overrated.

    I loved Matt saying "two and a half grand?" with a question at the end. He did the math correctly, he knew he did.
    He just also knew if he had gotten it wrong and it made it into a video (and his editors would "let that slip" I bet), we would all call him an architect, forever.

    @Pyrotrainthing Před 3 měsíci

    The double ended engine is a Double Fairlie, they’re common notably on the Ffestiniog. The Double Fairlie design was 2 locomotives put together as obvious as it looks, bug it has 2 boilers and separate injectors, which meant the design wasn’t used much outside Wales. There were also locomotives that were single Fairlies, which was more successful because it wasn’t twice the engine to maintain. The oldest operating Fairlie today is a Mason Bogie named Torch Lake.

    @WhoIsRyanFox Před 3 měsíci

    You should really try OpenTTD. It's a lot more realistic: trains can't just magically spin around on the tracks, or drive over other trains on the same tracks. It's actually really satisfying to have active networks full of dozens of trains, where you have to worry about signalling, roundabouts, bypasses and removing bottlenecks.

    That looks neat and cozy - tried the demo right away and failed the goal xD
    However two things I noticed: you can up-/downgrade trains when selecting them. Also there is no reason to keep "lucrative" lines going because of the limit of 10 trains it's better to repurpose them as you cannot do everything efficiently.
