Modern Underground Cargo Terminal

Description
**The warehouse building is based on Luminou's Medium Ware House and not my work.**



Are you fed up with the five year old design of the cargo station? Then this modern cargo station might suit you. Cargo trains are spawning and arriving in the underground, so it is also a space saver.

You MUST HAVE subscribed to AND enabled in the menu the Extra Train Station Tracks ( ETST ) mod by BloodyPenguin.

Please keep in mind, that like with all custom airports and train stations, you need to place a vanilla cargo asset first. After cargo trains started running, you can switch to this cargo station (same applies for airports and train stations for intercity trains).

Here is a video of a working station: https://youtu.be/TRhNX-417yg

You can use any tracks you want, to connect to the station. Note, that the terrain can transform in a very strange kind when adding a tunnel. To avoid that, you can build a short (2 units) tunnel first, and then build more tracks (description in the pictures). I recommend using Precision Engineering mod for this.

Stats are the same like the vanilla version. The tunnel is at -12m.
Asset name: Cargo underground terminal
Costs: 60.000
Maintenance: 1.440


All credits go to Luminou who generously gave me permission to use his asset. Check out Luminou's workshop.


Many thanks to BloodyPenguin for the Cargo Train Terminal Template, the ModTools, the Advanced Buildings Editor and of course the Extra Train Station Tracks ( ETST ) mod which made this custom cargo terminal all possible.


Update 25.11.2020:
I improved the texture quality and changed the buidling size to actually fit it into the 16x8 building size.

I think I have it sorted..... I used the vanilla 2-way tracks, starting from the underground tracks from the terminal. Made a 2 unit (squares) section, then carried on making longer track lengths from the section I created. This kept the tracks underground, but..... It does however create a noticeable hole in the ground, on both sides. It can be covered over with assets of course. I use grass asset, around the hole and lay down loads of trees to blend it in.
This cargo terminal worked for me as it should, tho, it would have been 100% perfect if it didn't create holes from laying down tracks!
Maybe the creators of this asset could take another look at it and hopefully be able to fix the issue everyone is having.

I'm Having the same problem as Laratitan. I'd really like to use this asset, but I can't connect to it properly.

나는 그것을 사용할수 없다.
지상의 철도를 지하화 해서 건물에 연결하면 터널이 거꾸로 생긴다. 수정 필요

I finally understand what people are saying about creating the 2u segment first. But that only allows me to build back up to the surface. I can't create a tunnel-only structure of railways :steamsad:

When I add tracks it forces it to come to the surface first, both sides. Even if I make an otherwise same elevation track it bursts out the side before tunneling back underground, making building there impossible.

I expected it to be like metro track where if you start and end underground, it's just a tunnel.

Hi Nickayz, weird issue today with this asset. The game didn't recognized them anymore. Had to demolish them all and replace them with, yes, this asset. After that it worked again.

I seem to recall in the mists of time that the Boformers sunken ones used to want you to place the two segment piece as well and now don't so I wonder if he used a different "type" of station track or something.
