TF citizens hate Trams? – Train Fever /forums/topic/tf-citizens-hate-trams/feed/ Wed, 30 Apr 2025 12:35:15 +0000 https://bbpress.org/?v=2.6.13 en-US /forums/topic/tf-citizens-hate-trams/#post-16961 <![CDATA[TF citizens hate Trams?]]> /forums/topic/tf-citizens-hate-trams/#post-16961 Sun, 15 Feb 2015 18:12:10 +0000 douglas I always wondered why my in-city lines are never popular. So I decided to make bus lines and its crowded everywhere. People just love it. Exact same path of the tram lines.

Then I decided to put trams there (as the track already exist), slowly replacing the buses with trams, and BAM no more passengers. Then I switch back to bus and there they are.

Why? They hate trams? I don’t see the reason, as the tram have more or less the same speed as the bus.

Anyone experienced the same issue?

I have always made my first monies from trams…I have no issues like that mine run fine and are full all the time.

What are the specific trams and busses you’re talking about?

In some eras, trams have much more passenger space in them than busses, which means that busses don’t have enough space, which means that people are cluttering at the stations faster than busses can handle as opposed to trams?

It seems like the only time I make money with bus routes is when they run between cities.

It very easy to see the problem. I’m on 1969 and the trams have more capacity than buses.

A small piece of road didn’t have any track.

Still the bus is better. After making the track correctly, 4 trams at 75 Km/h give me 76s frequency, while 4 buses at 80 Km/h give me 29s frequency.

I can never make an in city tram profitable, or even get usages up to a decent level. The exact smae line, but with a bus is much better.
Intercity trams work just fine, but usually im using a train for that, so i never really play with trams at all.
Shame really.
