Right...but only one half of a parenthese at the end of the name & none at the beginning? Why not a dash or a space as a separator? See what I mean?

Every now & then I'll get the chance to name a train. When I see it in my train list after doing this, it looks something like (for example) Toledo Flyer) Toledo (Unloading) with the extra parenthese after the name. Is there a way to fix that? Maybe it's just me being anal :roll:

First of all....Great skins! I like more variety in the rolling stock. I have a question, though: I'm playing a scenario now & the boxcars look like your screenshots, but they have the mail car icon in the train list. Is it supposed to be like this? Just wanted to make sure I did everything right.

Restaurants & Hotels only ever made money for me in times of Prosperity or Boom (& even that wasn't a lot). I rarely build them.

WOW!! :shock: Thanks AZ! I feel like Moses coming down from the mountain.... I follow some of your points already, but there are many I do not (but need to!). The only scenario I ever kicked butt on was Florida (can't remember the designer). Most of that came from the huge amounts of weapons & a...

Looking for some advice....

I've been playing quite a few RRT3 scenarios & they always end up the same way....me being broke!! I realize the strategies for each scenario will vary depending on individual requirements, but does anyone have any general guidelines they follow in a new scenario? I remember the days of the orig...

Has anyone had any CTD's with this scenario? As soon as I get to the end of the first year & the ledger comes up, I get a CTD. It's pretty frustrating.

The next time I run that line I might take a picture of it if anybody wants to see it. Of course we want to see it!! :D I would've liked to ride the steam train too...oh well. Like you said...Maybe next year. I did take a short ride on a steam train up at Steamtown last Friday. That's the only time...

I usually do turn off the barbarians & play on Noble. Most games turn out the same---I get up to first or second place in culture, then some of the smaller civs declare war and gang up on me. Then I usually get frustrated & play something else! They never go to war with each other...just me ...
