Flooding causes chaos

Today was the wettest I know for a very long. I was held up by flash foods on metro system. Thank heavens the sun is shinning now.

Bus Simulator 21

I would like to update about Bus Simulator 21. I have played this several times and I would recommend this game to anyone who enjoys public bus travel.

Bus simulator 21

I’m looking forward to my new game that I’m getting for my PlayStation4

Bus Simulator 21 is an upcoming bus simulator game developed by Stillalive Studios and published by Astragon Entertainment. It is developed on the Unreal Engine 4. It will be the sixth in the Bus Simulator series, and is the direct sequel to Bus Simulator 18. The game is scheduled to be released on the 7th of September, 2021 for Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One.

Bus Simulator 21 takes place in “Angel Shores”, a new fictional modern city located in the United States which is based on the San Francisco Bay Area. The game will feature a coastline and districts like Chinatown. In addition to the California map, the game will have a revised “Seaside Valley” map from its predecessor Bus Simulator 18. Vehicle-wise, the game introduces a double-decker bus — such as the officially-licensed Alexander Dennis Enviro500 — as well as electric buses to the series.[2] Further licensed bus brands include Blue Bird, BYD, Grande West, Iveco, MAN, Mercedes-Benz, Scania, Setra and Volvo. The game will also offer a cooperative multiplayer mode

BOSTON SPRINTER – CLIMB ABOARD ON THE CORRIDOR

Arriving 19th August, Boston Sprinter will put you in control at the throttle of electric, diesel, and cab car equipment!

Dating back to 1978, the Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority (MBTA) has called on Electro-Motive F40PH family locomotives to power its commuter trains, and on the Train Sim World 2 Boston Sprinter route you’ll take the throttle of MBTA’s latest version of the landmark locomotive, the EMD/MPI F40PH-3C (above), which features a traditional engineer’s control stand (below).

Enabling MBTA “push-pull” operations on the upcoming Train Sim World 2 Boston Sprinter route will be the commuter carrier’s veteran Messerschmitt-Bolkow-Blohm (MBB) CTC-3 cab car (above), aboard which you’ll handle the car’s relatively simple but efficient controls (below).

MBTA’s single track and scenic Stoughton Branch is included in the upcoming Train Sim World 2 Boston Sprinter route and brings yet another memorable experience to the line. MBTA CTC-3 cab car 1527 is leading a Boston-bound train on the branch at Canton Center (above), while F40PH-3C 1073 provides the power from the rear of the train (below).

The railroading action is intense at Hyde Park as a MBTA express commuter overtakes a local train preparing to make its station stop (above). And at historic Canton Viaduct, Amtrak ACS-64 603 has a Boston-bound intercity train on the move (below). Get ready to climb aboard on the Corridor – with the upcoming Train Sim World 2 Boston Sprinter route!

Cathcart District Railway

this is my next route that I am getting for my tsw2 is coming out on the 10th of June

The Cathcart District Railway was proposed to serve the arising demand for suburban residential travel on the south side of Glasgow, Scotland. It was planned as a loop running to and from Glasgow Central station, but at first only the eastern arm, to Cathcart via Queens Park, was built, opening in 1886. The western arm was opened in 1894 and trains operated round the loop. A frequent passenger train service was operated, and there was also a limited goods and mineral operation.

The passenger trains were popular but the company was never very profitable, and tramcar competition hit it hard. A decline set in through the twentieth century until electrification in 1962, which revived the line, which served onward routes to Newton and Neilston as well.

Cities: Skylines

Cities: Skylines is a 2015 city-building game developed by Colossal Order and published by Paradox Interactive. The game is a single-player open-ended city-building simulation. Players engage in urban planning by controlling zoning, road placement, taxation, public services, and public transportation of an area. Players work to maintain various elements of the city, including its budget, health, employment, and pollution levels. Players are also able to maintain a city in a sandbox mode, which provides more creative freedom for the player.

Cities: Skylines is a progression of development from Colossal Order’s previous Cities in Motion titles, which focused on designing effective transportation systems. While the developers felt they had the technical expertise to expand to a full city simulation game, their publisher Paradox held off on the idea, fearing the market dominance of SimCity. After the critical failure of the 2013 SimCity game, however, Paradox greenlit the title. The developer’s goal was to create a game engine capable of simulating the daily routines of nearly a million unique citizens, while presenting this to the player in a simple way, allowing the player to easily understand various problems in their city’s design. This includes realistic traffic congestion, and the effects of congestion on city services and districts. Since the game’s release, various expansions and other DLC has been released for the game. The game also has built-in support for user-generated content.

The game was first released for the Windows, macOS, and Linux operating systems in March 2015, with ports to the Xbox One and PlayStation 4 game consoles being released in 2017 and for the Nintendo Switch in September 2018 developed by Tantalus Media. The game received favourable reviews from critics, and was a commercial success, with more than six million copies sold on all platforms as of March 2019.
