What are the shortest / easiest 3 scenarios?
One of the unique buildings says to unlock it I have to win any 3 scenarios. I tried a couple and generally found I don't like them because I did not build the town I am given so I am not interested or invested into fixing it. It's more fun to build my own. So what are the best 3 scenarios I can whip out quickly to get this building unlocked?

btw I tried the ferry one and it was going to take hours to get up to 250,000 people riding ferries so I quit it.

Does it have to be scenarios from the DLC, or user created from the workshop? Maybe create your own if it's any scenario.

I only have Mass Transit, but the ferries one in that was enjoyable for me. It has a small start of a city, but plenty of space to develop how you want. Of course, the fun part was planning all the ferry routes anyway.

I think it has to be vanilla; if Catratio downloads one to use it counts as custom content and disables steam achievements.

in the Train scenario you start your city from scratch - but you have to reach a lot people, sometimes they wont move in in time

I was playing this yesterday and theres a bug with garbage atm so nobody wanted to stay and I lost the scenario because lack of peple, even there were lots of houses and parks and everything.....

When I did the 'fix the traffic' Mass Transit scenario I forgot I had a few mods enabled, like Extra Landscaping Tools and Move It!. Then I did the next 2 with no mods and the achievement for completing all 3 still fired even though I'd done the first with the above mentioned mods.

That train one is a real pain. Getting to the population target in the 100 weeks is quite a challenge. In the end I did some 'research' (Youtube videos) to get some help. It was just a frantic 'keep zoning' approach. I think I made it with 4 weeks to go. I think I got to around week 80 before the hi-density residential unlocked. Here's the layout I used. It's not pleasing on the eye, but got the job done:

Though going by my above comment that I still got the achievement even though I'd used mods, maybe I could have done it with the ingame 'all unlocked' mod so I could have got the hi-density stuff straight away ??
