CTS: Tram - Pic of the Week #12
Welcome to the latest 'Pic of the Week' for City Transport Simulator: Tram! This time, let's take a closer look at a suburb of Tramau - Eglunsdorf.
Eglunsdorf, a suburb of Tramau, officially became part of the city in the mid-20th century. However, the close connection between Tramau and Eglunsdorf dates back even further. This merger was the result of years of collaboration between the two communities, characterized by shared economic interests and close social ties.
The relationship between Tramau and Eglunsdorf was closely tied to the industrial development of the region. Eglunsdorf was home to several significant factories that made a substantial contribution to Tramau's economy. With the opening of Tramau's main train station in 1872, a bustling commute between the two communities began, further strengthening their connection.

However, integrating Eglunsdorf into Tramau was not without its challenges. Despite their proximity, numerous infrastructural and urban planning challenges had to be overcome. In the 1960s, it was decided to expand the tram network to Eglunsdorf, further advancing the suburb's integration into the city.
Today, Eglunsdorf is a vibrant neighborhood with a mix of quiet residential areas, small shops, and green spaces. The streets are lined with charming single-family homes and well-kept front yards, creating an inviting atmosphere. Yet, despite its idyllic setting, Eglunsdorf is also an important economic hub, hosting several significant businesses.

Designing Eglunsdorf was an exciting challenge for our development team. We wanted to ensure that the neighborhood not only functioned well but also felt authentic. Therefore, we created special assets such as single-family homes, garages, and front yards exclusively for Eglunsdorf to establish a unique atmosphere. The transition between suburb and downtown was achieved through strategic placement of intersections, wider streets, and other architectural features.
This quieter part of Tramau also serves as an introductory route for players diving into the world of CTS: Tram for the first time. Here, you can learn the basics of the game and familiarize yourself with operating the trams while exploring the tranquil streets of the Eglunsdorf suburb.
CTS: Tram will be released in 2024, and we're excited to share these exciting developments with our community. Stay tuned for more in-depth insights into the development process, exclusive features, and exciting updates.
