Manchester Metrolink Modular Station
Manchester Metrolink – the modern era. Bright concrete platforms, bright yellow signs.
This is a modular train station mod styled with a Metrolink theme.
IMPORTANT
This is a new mod using new station code – while I have done pretty extensive testing,
I don’t have every mod ever made for compatibility testing, so please test it for yourself before adding to important saves.
I would very much appreciate that if you do find any issues to please report them in the dedicated thread.
– 20m length platform modules, narrow and wide variants with and without decorative assets
– Single-wire catenary "street-running" style tracks (asphalt and paved)
– Dynamic entrance modules (steps, ramps) that size according to placement
– Shelter and sign modules for showing the station name
– Automatic addition of single-wire catenary versions of any other installed tracks (50mph or lower)
– Platform pieces for making decorative curved platforms
– Lots of catenary pole variants (catenary poles must be placed manually – tracks don’t have poles)
– All the platform decoration assets
– Shelters and signs showing text of construction name
– A digital display sign which can show departure information (not real, but nice for pictures)
– The step and ramp modules and a useful track crossing that can be placed anywhere to add a path for pedestrians to walk across
– Two new terrain brushes matching the new tracks – asphalt and paved
All items can be found under the Badgerrhax Metro category.
A note about the automatic track additions
I wasn’t sure whether I wanted to keep this in as it does pollute the menus a bit – if you have a LOT of track mods and lots of tracks
with a speed limit of less than 50mph then you’ll have quite a few apparent "duplicate" track icons in your menu. However the auto-generated
ones are prefixed with "Metrolink Style" in the title, so look out for that to tell them apart. The "Metrolink Style" versions have a
single catenary wire (no support wires) and no catenary masts or bumpers in order for them to fit in with the theme of this mod and
the commonly seen single wire catenary around the Manchester Metrolink network.
Thank you for reading this far, I hope you enjoy this mod.
Please report any bugs with this mod so I can try to address them.
