That decision was made in order to allow variety in activities. The 1992 and 2009 stock are very similar in length and door positions, so you should be able to mix both stock types on the same line in the simulator that way even with the platform edge doors. With other stock you would have been stuck with only being able to use one type of stock on the line.

The tram in the screenshot doesn't feature in that video... :D

"Green low floor tram"? What are you thinking of?
The tram the video mostly shows is a tram from Brussel, Belgium, which visited Amsterdam for a while. Amsterdam invited several tram types, looking for a candidate for its next generation trams. They eventually choose the Siemens Combino. The tram from Brussel was not selected as it was deemed too small for Amsterdam.

It's was the Brussels Tram what's i mean sorry.

I always wanted to know the question and it's burning on my nails how did you meet and how MSB came about (Sjoerd & Michiel) or how long you've known each other 😅

I'm afraid to admit it, but one day in august 2016 Sjoerd sent me a 'suggestion' with a new map idea :lol: But instead of the kind of suggestions we get most of the time, he actually had an actual plan, so I sent him the editor and some time later Rijndam was born ;)

So Sjoerd laid the foundation for the game since he's been actively involved,

the game has gotten better from version to version

I've been actively involved since 3.16 😅

So now much enough writing for today 😄
