Why not work on the 1970s LL as well?
Because I don't know how to build routes at the moment, and the current L route is not that realistic (straight switches, curves). Sure I can try to fix the route and try to make something good of it, but I'll have to think about it, the only route I will build is the Culver Shuttle since it is an easy and short line. That will train me for making the Jamaica Avenue, Rockaway Park and Nassau St to Coney Island via tunnel extensions in the future, and maybe the L train if I will not be able to fix the current one, unless a better version of the route come out in the future. Remember I'm just basing myself of the original released routes, all I do is retexture the objects and editing the routes

Oh I never knew someone already made it. Thank you! Well, should I consider it as released?

EDIT: The route needs some modifications anyways, need to add station signs and more details especially for 9th Avenue Station. I'll work on it when I'll be on the F route.

125th Street:










116th Street:


110th Street:



I don't think posting all the stations to 59th Street because they might all look the same.

A little bonus: Fully handmade signs, when I don't find any real textures:

Thank you! And yeah. I'm just realizing how better could I have made the Nassau St Lines but I will make an update after my last 70s route, including the 168th Street - 121st Street extension and the M to Coney Island via Brighton

34th Street is finally completed, however I didn't find any textures for the wall tile, so it might change, if I don't find any textures, I'll keep the current one.






I decided as well to add some scenarios to my "to do list", including the A to Rockaway Park. I will maybe add to Euclid Ave scenarios but not sure at all, it's already a lot work here:

-1969 to 1973: A (207th Street - Far Rockaway) Middays or weekends and late nights, 8 Ave express & Fulton St local
                       A (207th Street - Lefferts Blvd) Rush hours, 8 Ave express & Fulton Street local

-1973 to 1977: A (207th Street - Far Rockaway) Middays or weekends and late nights, 8 Ave express & Fulton St local
                       A (207th Street - Far Rockaway) Rush hours, 8 Ave express & Fulton St express (the one I'm currently working on)
                       A (207th Street - Rockaway Park) Middays or weekends and late nights, 8 Ave express & Fulton St local
                       A (207th Street - Rockaway Park) Rush hours, 8 Ave express & Fulton St express
                       A (207th Street - Lefferts Blvd) Middays or weekends and late nights, 8 Ave express & Fulton St local
                       A (207th Street - Lefferts Blvd) Rush hours, 8 Ave express & Fulton St express


-1977 to 1979: A (207th Street - Far Rockaway) Late nights, 8 Ave Local & Fulton St Local
                       A (207th Street - Far Rockaway) Middays and weekends, 8 Ave express & Fulton St local
                       A (207th Street - Far Rockaway) Rush hours, 8 Ave express & Fulton St express
                       A (207th Street - Rockaway Park) Late nights, 8 Ave Local & Fulton St Local
                       A (207th Street - Rockaway Park) Middays and weekends, 8 Ave express & Fulton St local
                       A (207th Street - Rockaway Park) Rush hours, 8 Ave express & Fulton St express
                       A (207th Street - Lefferts Blvd) Late nights, 8 Ave Local & Fulton St Local
                       A (207th Street - Lefferts Blvd) Middays and weekends, 8 Ave express & Fulton St local
                       A (207th Street - Lefferts Blvd) Rush hours, 8 Ave express & Fulton St express

Check out the list I made on the first page, there're the B and D lines and even the TT West End line, the W never existed back then, but the RR was similar, but not planning to do it yet. But I'll add the E as well to Rockaway Park or WTC.

Working on the escalator for W4 St, not only for this station but in general for all other 70s routes. 23rd, 14th St stations are done, but I'll post them with W4 St when completed

The escalator is now done ^^
I'm gonna put it in W4 and finish the station itself!


(During the end of the development)

I have good news :)

1) I found the real font used for route signs in the 1960s - 1970s, which is the Unimark International, however, I couldn't find any download so I tried to make it via an image, but it was unsuccessful, but I found another font that looks exactly the same as Unimark International and it is Akzidenz Grotesk Bold.
So I remade all the signs with this font and made them simpler, and it looks more realistic and even better. Here are a few of them:







2) Since there are a lot of replies on this thread, I'd rather post less frequently and make major posts showing 10 stations, I think I don't need to make hundreds of posts for nothing, but this one was exceptional. Stay tuned for more, Canal Street is done and I'm currently at Chambers St, adding signs and other stuff.

EDIT: Sorry if the images didn't appear, I deleted the post on imgur like a dummy. I re-uploaded them
