Description
This is my first map for Garry's Mod. This map is used for prop trainbuilders and modelers that need a map to test their locomotives and rolling stock at high speeds.

The map features a large flat plain with dual mainline loops on it. It also features a wasteland sky for moodiness. The track used in this map is rated for "RSG" (Real Standard Gauge). This means your equipment that was built for PHX/trakpak2 will not be compatible with the map. I can potentially add trakpak 2 loops in the future.

This map is located in "Other", and is named "work2".

Yes. Probably. That's why I am fan of maglev ;) Cheers and keep up the good work !

I am not aware of splines in TP3... The rails I used were I assume semi circles (90 degree segments on each corner of the map), and when I run my trains on this map it feels pretty smooth. But i've noticed that some Superliner cars from some other addon on here don't seem to agree with this map and will derail at even just 40mph in-game (but I think that's a problem with the superliners because I can't seem to run them very well on ANY map)

As a builder I enjoy anything related to building. Especially train related stuff. Currently I do not have a maglev supporting TP3 so challenge accepted as trying to create one and achieve even higher speeds ;) I do hope however that the track curves are splines instead of regular semi-circles as the latter introduce a hit on the Y local axis of the train making it derails at lower speed.

You are my hero ;)

This is a great idea for small servers with people who build more than they run, like mine. Huge thanks for making this map.
