Goals - Build 210 instances of track, and transport 200,000 people via train

Actual challenge - Get population over 1,000 in 20 game weeks, and get population over 12,000 in 150 game weeks.

The rail goals were only a matter of time. Just needed to build a population quickly at the start and keep it up.

While I did enjoy playing it, it was no more really than any other city.

The city I built was the ugliest one I have built in a long time. I think partly due to trying to connect rails to things, and build all the specialized industry to connect to rail to get the bonus objective. That did make things a bit messy. The reward for the bonus objective was a bit disappointing. (If you want to know what it is, it is on the wiki ( http://www.skylineswiki.com/Scenarios )).

I found myself laying out a lot of stuff for the resources as well, but not actually building on the oil or ore because I did not want it to run out, and I have all the mods off for the achievements. (yeah, I know I don't have to)
I thought I could enable unlimited resources afterwards.

I also didn't build as much rail as I wanted to, because I wanted to do a lot more with the city before winning (yeah, that's my issue, not the scenario's, silly me) and the only way was to keep it under 210 instances of track.

I did have a bunch of issues with the water in the river misbehaving (starts upstream outside city limits).
See thread here if you want more details:

Anyway, not my favourite scenario. I liked "Ferry Empire" better. "Tornado Country" as well. (The 3 I have done thus far.)
