Trio Lake Sights: Railway Station
The idea was suggested by Frodo1990 and he tried to build for me something fantasy. Although I wanted this house realistic and when I decided to build on my own my research started from this TS3 starter house by hazelnutter100. Those thread caught my eye and I inspected listed signal boxes linked in description. I found many buildings and this one is something in-between those.
The interior of the house is furnished for one particular station master who lives in there and his house says for himself. He is womanizer with romance aspiration and this house has some woohoo spots, even public. He is lazy enough to paint walls in his dwelling and poor enough to afford frames for wall paintings and even double bed. Not a heavy drinker but he likes wine and spend a lot of money on it. As all unfortunate woman lovers he is hopeless romantic who has the only wife of his whole life - his train station work. Clearly, he loves trains as much as he loves women. Despite all that his house was not populated and I decided to share it before move him in. This house is in my top three and I'd give it 3rd place in my Trio Lake favorites chart. That's why I decided to share it.
Features:
- There is all-in-one station master's room.
- There is parlour room with Model Train Set in it.
- There is one bathtub in the scullery.
- There is one toilet stall on the platform.
- Two places for public - changing booth at janitor's and photo booth on the platform.
- No items for pets on this lot.
- All bushes near the platform are accessible for trimming without any mods.
- Obviously this house shares the strict rules of my Victorian neighborhood. It has no TVs and no computers, no smoke detectors and no burglar alarms. There are basins in bedrooms and no bathrooms for poor. There is more information about Trio Lake Borough rules in my Creators Feedback Forum thread.
No CC was used
There are some CC mods used and shown up in screens but not mandatory to install:

- Rugs - zMOG!! Off Grid!! by Hugelunatic [MTS]

- The Great Sky of Totalalitarinism skybox by Lowedeus.
- Wall top texture fix by LazyDuchess [MTS]
- No red lines during pause by Beosboxboy.
- There might be something else...
General tips to place and use the lot:
- There are two lot versions different only by gates. There are closed gates and open gates. Choose any. No need to choose both. It is very simple to edit one to another actually.
- Install any using default Sims 2 Pack Installer or S2PCI.
- Download CC of your choice and install it according to its description.
- Find it in your lot bin and place. Preview shows the building on desert terrain. I shared it from Service Area by Sokisims. Not released yet, those neighborhood can be found here. Please check out their neighborhood and give them feedback.
- Due to those fact this lot is modified with Lot Adjuster, it has very niche placement between two roads. And you have no chance to change it.
- In order to place the railway road neighborhood decoration the way it is placed on vanity pictures you should use certain mods.
- Platforms are placed right on pedestrian routes so all pedestrians will climb and pass both platforms from time to time. They will also cross the junction to move from one platform to another.
- Remember that tiles between pathway and carriageway shown on screenshots will skip to default after you place the lot. You can fill it yourself as needed using moveobjects on cheat. Those area is not changing total lot price.
- Playtested on copy of house with two sims.
- Lot has been compressed and cleaned by ChrisHatch's tool.
- House has one pool tile, minimum of requirements for custom water shaders to work.
Known bugs, issues and tips:
- If you'll have here nursery, there is a bug with toilet stall on this lot (same as many others in my neighborhood). Sims cannot flush potty remains in toilet stall. They go to it then making shrug animation and switch to another way to dispose it. Those other way will dispose it into trash bin on the platform.
I suggest you not to have toddlers on this lot
Updates:
- Not yet
Credits:
Many thanks to Frodo1990 for the idea. I hope you wasn't disappointed too much that I rejected your train station. I hope the reason you left building project is not the case I made laugh of your house. You made many precious houses for my neighborhood and your train station was the only far from I wanted. I really appreciate your work!
Many thanks to Leto for complete tutorial about sim portals.
Regards. Vic ^_^

Install Instructions
1. Download: Click the download link to save the .rar or .zip file(s) to your computer.
2. Extract the zip, rar, or 7z file.
3. Install: Double-click on the .sims2pack file to install its contents to your game. The files will automatically be installed to the proper location(s).
- You may want to use the Sims2Pack Clean Installer instead of the game's installer, which will let you install sims and pets which may otherwise give errors about needing expansion packs. It also lets you choose what included content to install. Do NOT use Clean Installer to get around this error with lots and houses as that can cause your game to crash when attempting to use that lot. Get S2PCI here: Clean Installer Official Site.
