So you wont be able to use it by wheelchair, and therefore, this station is only wheelchair-accessible when traveling in the direction of the city center (as the other platform can be reached without using stairs or escalators).

A train which fits really well for services to and from Denia, as in reality, this type of train has been used on the (Alicante -) Benidorm - Denia line, until it was replaced by, or rebuild into if you prefer, the current 2500-series diesel train.

The conversion to Metrosimulator is on its way;


One point of interest; it is a narrow gauge train; in runs on 1000mm gauge track.
So in Rijndam 2006, where the Denia line is a diesel railway which branches of at Rijndam Zuid from the main line, I have changed the situation (this will be the new situation in the 3.15 release): the Denia railway is uncoupled from the main line, and converted to meter-gauge. The line has got its own track at Rijndam Zuid, from where it departs towards Denia.





The line has also been refitted with Spanish signs and signals along the tracks (made by myself), and Spanish railway crossings (made by Senjer).
The conversion of the line is now in the testing stage.

The train now has a page on the Wiki. On the request of Guille3604, the text of the Wiki has also been made available in Valencian.

Change trains at Rijndam Zuid.
I'll just convert the existing CS - Denia service into a CS - Rijndam Zuid service. Nothing complicated, as I still have more projects on my to-do list....
Should be simple; it's only one train (service 702) that's effected. And with the new line; I'll do my best to create a reasonable connection for the passengers; try to avoid so-called "red-light connections" (where you arrive at the station by train, and you can just see the red taillights of your connecting train leaving the platform ).

If you want a more complicated timetable, that'll be your challenge to create new activities

And don't worry; yes I'll put in an activity to run on the narrow gauge line too.
