Company Profile
Technology
RegionalConnect uses its own technology to run its trains. Although it is not as advanced as CitiRail (the leading competitor) the system is much more reliable. RegionalConnect uses a integrated switch system to control routes, passengers can select their route from the ticket hall at the station. The routing switch is incredibly compact and simple to use, one press of a button and the system will do it for you. (For safety purposes staff have the ability to lock a route out of use) On some stations you may not find a ticket hall, this only means there are only two possible destinations from that station. At some point in the future the switch will be implemented into main lines where multiple companies merge.
RC Stations V2.0
In light of the update that brought RegionalConnect to a stand-still, a huge redesign was warranted. So RL got to work. And after a couple hours of toil he managed to come up with a design that incorporated all the old features but this new station came with one major difference, it had an ECD by DEFAULT. The first one of these stations to be installed was at Merchant City Interchange station on the great central railway. Several transit centres including those at Laclede and BirchView used the new station for their platforms.

Iconic Stations
Stations that have been built by RegionalConnect and stand out for some reason.
Segville Grand Central
Segville's RegionalConnect station is called such for a reason, from the picture below you can probably see why. This station is also iconic because its the only station on the entire network to be fitted with an ECD (Empty cart detector). Its architecture is not completely original, as a large proportion of its design was inspired by station architecture at Daneburg. Segville is located at ZS6 - ZS8 station, however (as the station is a far distance away from the MRT) to get directly to the station take a GWR or MSL service.
Thunderbird Yonge Street
Thunderbird RegionalConnect station is the HUB of most RC services, it is boasted as being the busiest station on the entire network, it's also the most technologically advanced. The entire station is controlled by a computer (litterally) it can detect when a train enters the station and can then track that train until it leaves, this feature allows Thunderbird to have overflow platforms, these will divert a train onto another track if the primary platform is occupied. To get to Thunderbird, travel to F17 station, or take a CME, GCR, MSL, EOL or SCL service.
Sealane Central
Sealane station is the original station (as in, the first one to ever be constructed), as no set technology had been developed when this station was built, everything within it is custom. It was going to have a Thunderbird style computer controlling it but that project was abandoned. This station used to house the most complicated RegionalConnect juction, on the south side, until major track alignments and re-vamps occurred in early 2017 to untangle the junctions. To get to Sealane Central travel to XW2 - D2 - M2 station or take a GWR, GCR, RVX or WCML service.
HSR Wythern
Wythern station is a historic landmark in the life of RC because it was the first high-speed station to be opened (17th November 2015) Its iconic modern styling with open platforms and a large concourse make it the best suited station for a modern HS line. To get to HSR Wythern travel to C41 however the station is a long distance from the MRT station so for a quicker alternative take an SCL (Shinkansen) service.
Emergency Action
- Station Fault
Upon discovering a fault with a station report to DergenTheDragon via a /mail or if it is something like some blocks of platform are missing, replace them manually.
