Armystuntman's Island of Sodor

rp_bp_sodor (Enterable stations/cottages)

A hyper-compressed version of the Sodor Main Line Route, from Knapford Station all the way to King's Cross in the mainland, though skipping a lot of stations and sights. As I write this, this is the only 3-track british trainbuild map in Gmod, and possibly THE largest trainbuild map on workshop, with multiple stations, yards, a harbor and a dock which can hold ships, all adding up to 8 useable layers of uninterrupted main-line track. This is not false advertising, what you see in the screenshots is exactly what you get.
There are also 2 layer-wide misc building layers packed in: Flatgrass and a Ship-Build layer
Enjoy!

FAQ:

Q: What happened to the driving layer?
A: It has been removed and will be replaced with King's Cross eventually.

Q: Can you add more track? Can you add "X"?
A: No, I have hit the Source limit for functional brushes which means I can not add any more switches, turntables, or even buttons or doors. I can add buildings but without new track what's the point?

Q: Errors!!!! Missing content?
A: Subscribe to all the required addons and their required addons. This map only uses those addons and HL2 stuff so there is no "counter strike" dependencies ect.

Q: Is there Tidmouth Sheds?
A: A very simplified version! There are 3 roundhouses in the route. Knapford, Tidmouth and Vicarstown.

Q: Sligwolf engines derail!
A: Trakpak 2 does not support "vehicle type" trains. The autoswitches don't work or bug out due to large buggy bounding boxes of vehicle-entity trains. You will need to learn to get/make/use prop engines. And please don't ask how here, there are trainbuild gmod communities to go to for that.

Q: I derailed on the 2ft layout! The tracks aren't auto-switching!
A: The 2ft layout does not have autoswitches, I had to remove them because I went over the functional brush limit. All switches on the 2ft layout do not autoswitch (except for 3 switches at the ends of the line) so please make sure you switch yourself carefully on the 2ft layout. (The bigger PHX layout is fine though.)

Q: Which side do I drive on?
A: Left, as it is British. The middle track is a double-sided express line. Make sure to announce your direction in multiplayer!
