Lines & Vehiclesin level 1
From April 1 2004 (no April fools' joke) every station in the Tokyo subway has a normal station name in Japanese, but also a number. The number is composed of a western letter and two digits. The letter indicates at which line the station is, the number which station counted from one of the line's terminal stations.
The Ginza line has the letter G and the stations are numbered from 01 till 19, the terminus station Shibuya is station G01 and the other terminus Asakusa is station G19.
This number system was implemented to make it easier for foreigners to ride the subway.
Very well-made line with many details, soft curves and realistic light conditions.
It can be fixed by replacing the file entlight_a.bmp
in the directory Railway\Route\hanzomon\enshin\abtob
with a corrected version of entlight_a.bmp
TOBis lit. Also, the train's destination sign at the MFD should be set with the Page Down key to an alternative with 4 green characters in a green frame. When the train has stopped by the platform at next station, Oshiage/Z14 at the subway's Hanzomon line to continue as B1367S, the train's brakes should be set in the emergency brake position and the reverser in neutral position, the safety system should be changed with the 7 key so that the indicator light
TRTAis lit, and the train's destination sign at the MFD should be set to an alternative with 2 red characters in a red frame.

. The line begins at Flatbush Avenue/Brooklyn College in Brooklyn and goes through, among other stations, Times Square/42nd Street on Manhattan, where this simulation ends, to Wakefield/241st Street in Bronx. Detailed stations. Plenty of trackside signs and signals (with correct signal numbers). Soft curves and realistic switches, and also announcements of all stations and connections.
The problems can be fixed by changing in the definition files for those graphic objects. In the directory LegacyContent\Railway\Object\WestsideA\cars
are the files r62_1.b3d
, r62_3.b3d
, r62_4.b3d
, r62_5.b3d
, r62_7.b3d
and r62_9.b3d
.
In each of these files the word Transparent
followed by three numbers appears at 6 lines. Change in each of these files so the 4 first appearances of the Transparent
-instructions are Transparent 0, 0, 255
and the 2 last are Transparent 255, 0, 0
.

The simulated line starts at a track in the 174th Street Depot at northern Manhattan, from which the train goes to the 168th Street station at Manhattan to start revenue service. Revenue service ends at the Euclid Avenue station in Brooklyn, from which the train is moved off service to a track towards Pitkin Avenue Depot to change direction.
