TFS tram

Post by Sjoerd »

New project: The "Tramway français standard" (French standard tram)

This is a project I had started on earlier (in fact; directly after I released the Citadis tram package), but did not get very far; back then, I only did the inside walls for the passenger compartment.
I decided to revive this project. :)

Current status; it can drive, the doors are animated (but need more finetuning), and the mirrors can fold out (but only both at the same time; there are only 3 "cab-animation" keys, and I need two of them for the internal driver door, and the side service door. So only one remains to operate both mirrors).
A new drivers cab has been build, but is not functional yet. There are no chairs yet inside; only the walls, roof and floor.

Not gonna lie, that's a creamy announcement. One of my favorite European trams finally arriving in the sim. 🤤 : Definitely not because is the closest tram to an S70/S700 (Avanto).

Perfect choice Sjoerd! An RET version of this one wouldn't be that unrealistic :mrgreen:

PS. I noticed the issue with the images (unreliable site I used) fixed it by using postimg as well ;)

I like the design of the TFS, I think it's going to be a good addition to the simulator!

Never knew there was a third track at Maashaven?

Maashaven was once also the end of line 12 (https://trams.fandom.com/nl/wiki/Lijn_12_(Rotterdam) ). The reversing loop is still there and can still be used.
I guess this 3rd track was ment for vehicles of line 12, to wait for their departuretime without being in the way of line 2, and without the need to wait in the reversing loop, which is much more in the middle of a residential area (I'm guessing those residents didn't want stationary trams in front of their homes all the time).

Translation : During the summer of 1988 this tram circulated on the network R.E.T Rotterdam / Netherlands

it would be a good idea to put this plate to the tram No. 2020 will be in the simulator
