Everything I wanted the Feverfew Railway station to have is now complete. Proper buffer stops, signals, water crane and coal staithes. Goods yard is full of wagons and vans, there’s ‘Gertrude’ the tank engine with a brake van resting at the station and a diesel multiple unit approaching the platform. The dedicated Feverfew themed hood deco folder is about 70Mb now and there are 250+ packages there. That includes already released hood deco cars, sport fields and shop facades. It is safe to say now that there will be no more new neighborhood decorations created within the project. What I need to do now is to focus on lots I want to add. No big deal, just a few prebuilt, undecorated, as noCC as possible community and residential lots here and there. Some lot mode custom content has to be done though as I want my buildings to match hood deco ones.
