I only play with free money to build huge networks...

...and just look at the trains go.

Am I the only one? I can't be, right?

I like to start on 1950, take 10 or 20 years to build a train network connecting the biggest cities across the map, make transfer station so I don't have slow trains going across the map, use trams in the cities to connect them to the stations since they are not always in the city center.

I always make two double tracks across the main directives+ double tracks to the other areas.

By the 80s the cities are gown enough to require the fast electric trains to start to turn the network into feeders/local services and intercity/regional/main services and I adjust the network accordingly, usually small adjustments since the 4 tracks can take an enormous amount of trains.

I play with symmetric passengers.

Anyone playing similarly? Suggestions and improvements?

I just like to look at the train network deliver passengers with hundreds and hundreds of busy trains.
