Before I start, I'm going to be clear and say I had to download someone else's savegame, one in which he'd unlocked all the vehicles. I actually DREAMT about this game last night (specifically the horrific route to the mountainous Treasure Island) and decided this morning to resume my quest to earn more damn money to get the trolleybus and streetcar.

Well, that didn't work out. I reached the first stop on Treasure Island and after the first passenger got on, the second just stood there. Tube tech cl 1b compressor rar. I tried pulling forward in case her pathfinding wasn't working, and the game popped me the negative achievement for leaving passengers behind. Enraged, I took off at speed, and decided to take a shortcut down a switchback by just driving off the cliff.

My bus got wedged, and I turned the game off. I tried again to peek at my save file with a hex editor, and seeing one entry for 'CrashCount=8' I decided to change the 8 to a 0.

The game refused to load the save now (and continued to after I changed the 0 to and 1 and back to an so I had no choice but to download a save or start over again. So, in the hopes that other frustrated players might see this on Google, a save game of Bus And Cable Car Simulator with all vehicles unlocked and lots of money is here: It's password protected, but after a bit of searching I found that the password is: (so thank you, mysterious Eastern European guy who suffered this game's slings and arrows, and put your save up for us to enjoy) Here's a short look at things I've seen during my games up until now. The windows fog up in the rain unless you turn the vents on! The bus washer! The beautiful rain effects (note the light being refracted by the individual raindrops) Now, ON WITH THE SHOW! Thanks to ortakpaylas (who I imagine as having a bad fringe and an absolutely astonishingly beautiful if skinny girlfriend), I now have access to the trolley bus! There's only one route in the game, with day and night express variants.

And here it is. What I didn't realize is that apparently trolley buses in San Francisco have a battery, which allows them to run without the wires for short distances. In the game, this is to get them out of the depot and into position.

Once out on the street, I have to attach the trolley poles (incorrectly called 'pantographs' by the German developers) to the wires. This is far harder than it looks, as what looks like it's attached.actually isn't.

That's got it. And away we go! Where I grew up, there was a trolley bus line at the end of the street. These lasted until 1993, and were eerily quiet. They also weren't really suited to the routes they were given, apart from the fact both ran through fairly residential areas. The real advantage of the trolley bus (apart from the quietness and lack of emissions) is the sheer power. They climb hills swiftly and accelerate on flat ground even faster.

The buses in the game reflect this, a gentle hum the only sound as the reach high speeds very quickly. Unfortunately, I've got another bus in front of me. He's doing the same route so he's taking all my passengers! Remember, I didn't take a bendy bus.

Another bus has just rearended me. When we encounter an intersection clogged with traffic, I take the opportunity. It's time to find out what happens if I try and overtake another trolley bus! Will our poles interlock and cause a big sparky explosion? Nothing happens, and I reach Market Street safely.

For some reason, the trolley bus route is set so I collect my passengers from the streetcar platforms in the middle of the street. I hear another loud bang, and look over to see one of the streetcars has just smashed into the back of a truck. Notice that the poles on this oncoming bus are attached to the wires on the wrong side of the street! Well done, programmers. Arriving at the big SF Terminal. Notice the green light on the dashboard has gone red. I've dewired coming around the corner to enter.

As you can see by the clock, I fought with the fucking poles for over ten minutes. This was the best I could do with them. You click and drag to position them, but they fight you and I simply could not get them to come down low enough to affix to the wire. Having done this in real life, I can attest to the amount of force needed (they are heavily sprung to keep them in contact with the wire) but this was ridiculous. I abandoned my run at this point and went to read the manual. Well, turns out the engine needed to be off in order for them to attach. I don't recall don't that the first time I affixed them back at the depot, but never mind.

Streetcar time! So I step outside and. Dude, where's my streetcar? Turns out it's up by Fisherman's Wharf, at the end of the loop.

Luckily, I can fast travel there in my personal vehicle. There she is! The passengers are already waiting.

This is a PCC car. Thousands of these were built, first for service in North America and then in European variants, with many still running today. I remember these running too, they lasted in revenue service until 1995. The interior is spot on. The driver's seat. Note that it's controlled with pedals, not a throttle lever. Note the small white two-aspect signal next to the traffic lights.

That's the transit signal, and the one that I obey. White is proceed, red is stop.

A close up of the controls. Unfortunately, the streetcars are something of an afterthought and very few of these controls are operable, including the speedometer! A sad oversight is that the bell (or gong) plays a canned three-ring sample. In reality, the number of taps indicates what the vehicle is about to do. If I recall correctly, two was a warning the streetcar was about to start moving, for example. In real San Francisco, the drivers rang the thing wildly, especially when passing through busy areas, to announce their presence.

Once on the Embarcadero, the F Line runs in a grade separated right of way, and you can make up some serious time here if you're running late. Indeed, I got to the Ferry Building so early I had time to run over to take a picture of the famous Embarcadero Fountain. The Ferry Building, which hosts a fruit and vegetable market as well as ferries around the Bay Area. Grinding around a bend towards the downtown area. Notice how the body of the car is hanging over, in Toronto they paint lines around corners in the track to mark where the streetcar's body will pass as it goes around the corner, so pedestrians and cars don't get clipped. You can ride for free.

Om nom nom carrot patch etc. The car is so long zooming out won't let you see whether people are still disembarking like on the diesel bus, so you can use your owl-like neck to turn your head 180 degrees and make sure everyone has disembarked from the centre and rear doors before you proceed. Alas, the traffic AI hasn't been discouraged from driving along the tracks, and my progress along Market Street is slowed behind civilian cars who aren't turning left (which, IRL, is the only reason you should really be there). This blue X5 held me up for several blocks, before stopping short as his light changed, and I banged into the back of him.

Infuriated, when I saw him continue along the tracks, and preventing me from pulling up behind this trolley bus to pick passengers up from the next platform, I went full throttle into the back of him. I somehow managed to push him UNDER the bus, which was in turn lifted atop my streetcar in an almighty crash. Seemingly out of sympathy, the game itself crashed at this point too. There you go. I'll be back at some point with a conclusion, with bendy buses, double deck tour buses, the school bus and. The cable cars!

I don't understand how up the bum can be nice for a guy. Its not nice for girls (makes you feel like your having a poo over n over once the initial nice bit goes away) -MissEdwood You may remember me as 'Branch-me-do'. Only the F Line has the historical streetcars, the other lines use modern Italian-built Breda cars. It's a nice tourist attraction, except the F Line ran right past our hotel window.

As it's in operation 20 hours a day, and the Peter Whitt cars from Italy are 90 years old, they make a hell of a racket which isn't what you want after a night on the Anchor Steam.

I was talking in a nostalgic tone about my own childhood in Toronto, as I was about the trolleybuses., for all its graininess, is actually extremely awesome to me, as it shows both the trolley buses and streetcars as I remember them.

The picture itself is before my time, but the streetcar is emerging from a loop (later converted to a trolley bus loop) with my high school in the background!

Its not nice for girls (makes you feel like your having a poo over n over once the initial nice bit goes away) -MissEdwood You may remember me as 'Branch-me-do'. Trolley buses, contrary to the thinking in the 1950s, aren't a replacement for streetcars so much as a replacement for diesel buses. They can't compete for sheer capacity with a streetcar in a downtown area, but a lot of cities started replacing their streetcars with trolley buses (some cities in the UK even called them 'trackless trams') only to then replace the trolley buses with diesel buses not long afterwards. Now that the battery has solved the issue of the buses not being able to overtake, they're a very viable option again.

Unfortunately, they require a big investment in infrastructure and environmentalists always complain about the 'unsightly' wires. You also have a problem if you have streetcars already in your city that use pantographs rather than trolley poles as collection types don't like each other.

Indeed, and replacement of the diesel busses was what edinburgh sorely needed (3 competing companies - the length of Princes Street continuously clogged with the noisy, smoke belching knackered things). I do appreciate the higher capacity of trams and they might have the edge in terms of journey times and passenger convenience. But I still feel that trolleys with batteries, some route prioritisation and traffic management would have got 90% of the way to the goal on about 10% of the time and money. Instead we've spent 200% of the money to get 50% of the original promised service, with another half-billion yet to spend. They should seriously just cut their losses.

That said, it's at least vaguely pleasant to walk around the city centre now, as the 3-year ongoing disaster has meant that a lot of it is still dug up, so there are no busses at all - amazing to experience the peace and quiet! I do appreciate the higher capacity of trams and they might have the edge in terms of journey times and passenger convenience. But I still feel that trolleys with batteries, some route prioritisation and traffic management would have got 90% of the way to the goal on about 10% of the time and money. I suppose it depends on how they plan to use the trams. Most cities with them now class them as 'light rail' and they tend to run mostly on dedicated tracks away from normal traffic, except for a few limited sections of street running (as in Nottingham and Manchester). The result is you get proper named and built stations, which tend to be a fair old distance apart. The intention is not so much for transportation around the city centre itself as a way of bringing people in from a long distance away.

Then you have the more traditional way, where they're run like a bus, calling at regular stops at the side of the street. Contrast the 46 seats on a single Toronto CLRV streetcar (61 on the articulated version) vs the 36 seats on the Orion VII bus which makes up the majority of the fleet.

Plus, all the room for standees in the bigger streetcars. It's the same reason for double decker buses - you can fit so many more people onto one vehicle. I see what you're saying about traffic management but there's only so much that a bus lane can do, and that standard sized buses can do. If you think of it like Transport Tycoon, you have your central city station, with a bus terminal and a train station. Each bus comes in at 35mph with 40 passengers, and as the town grows you need more and more until you have dozens of buses, all clogging each other up (no civilian traffic in TT, thank goodness). Meanwhile, your train comes in at 75mph with 300 passengers aboard, disgorges them, loads some new ones, and is gone again at speed very quickly.

The tram sits halfway between those two extremes, not as fast as the train, but more passengers than the bus, able to stop as regularly as the bus.

Well, you can judge - map here: From the city centre down to Leith is only 10 minutes on a bus or 20 minutes walk, for example. The airport link seems sensible but would have been far better served by a proper railway station, since the rail lines go right past the airport anyway.

I used to visit Caen in france regularly, and over a similar period of 2 or 3 years, watched them installing a tram system and eventually use it on my last trip - was quite impressed. That's an even smaller city, but the French seem to know how to do it all properly, and there they were starting out with very wide, grid-like streets which were already pedestrianised in some cases. Edit: Anyway, sorry, off-topic.

While Edinburgh's been mismanaged, I think it's important to build projects like this and get it right (however inconvenient the construction might be) than to do a half-hearted bodge that you'll come to rue in the years ahead. Busways, for example. Or only electrifying the railway from Paddington to Cardiff, even though all the intercity trains continue to Swansea. It might be a pain now, but if they extend the Edinburgh network in future, travellers and local councillors alike will be glad they did the city part properly the first time. As for airport links. I've taken the tube, Heathrow Express and Green Line to Heathrow, the Gatwick Express and Thameslink to Gatwick, and the Grey Line to Toronto Pearson. Of those options, only the dedicated airport-only services (Heathrow and Gatwick Express respectively) were in any way tolerable and even then not preferable to a taxi or airport limo.

Sitting on a transit route calling at all stops to pick up old bats with their shopping with your luggage is horrible going out, and even worse when you're back with added jetlag.

The upgrade to the tramlines around here is making Edinburgh look like a masterpiece of project planning and timely delivery.

Also there are now an extra six sets of traffic lights between here and anywhere because some wanker somehwere has decided that because the new trams will be ever so slightly faster it is too dangerous to allow motorists to look out for trams when crossing a tram track. Despite the fact that I can't remember a single tram vs car incident in thirty odd years where anyone was hurt. So now the journey times for pretty well everyone up and down our coastline will be massively extended just so that a handful of bus pass wielding grey hairs can plod up and down on massively expensive new trams. Which aren't even the sort of trams that most visitors want to see anyway. (unless where they are appropriate, obviously).

I remember them in the late 2000s too. See, antwerp still has them: (in their lovely chunky pre-metro ) by the way. Love this stuff l. XBL: Romanista WiiU: Romanista77 Gamecenter: Romanista345 3DS 0318 8943 6467 Steam: Romanista345 PSN: Romanista345 Switch: 5098 6135 1325. As for airport links.

Sitting on a transit route calling at all stops to pick up old bats with their shopping with your luggage is horrible going out, and even worse when you're back with added jetlag. The problem is usually have with these airport links is that they are far more expensive compared to normal public transport, and often not faster.

Fiumincino airport - roma citiy centre - special tariff € 17 - normal (5 mins slower) €1.20 arlanda - stockholm city center - € 21 - normal bus (faster to northern part of town) around €3. On schiphol, wehre the train to amsterdam is far faster than the taxi etc btw, the machines had a very big 1st class sign, and an amazingly small 2nd class sign on the touchscreen, which was kind of naughty too.
