Description

Marvellous Monorails offers an all-new vehicle type to Cities in Motion 2. The monorail is a handy vehicle for innercity connections and works best in circular lines. The pack boasts five different monorail vehicles, from the slow but very large Toyoka Cybria City, to the super-fast but quite high maintenance Stern-Berger Mate.

An all new type of transportation! Monorails are a great choice for routes connecting different parts of the city. They are fast and attract a lot of passengers, and give your city a novelty look with their elevated rails. When a metro line is too expensive but you need a vehicle that is not affected by traffic, the monorail is your choice. Build circular lines for maximum efficiency and try all of the five different monorail vehicles to find just the right one for each line.

  • Ness Mono. Ness Mono is a sure favourite among passengers. It's very comfortable to ride and also fairly fast, so people get to their destinations quick and enjoyably.
  • Hana-Bi Challenger. Hana-Bi Challenger is very eco-friendly with its low energy consumption. It is also fairly attractive to passengers and quite sturdy, thus requiring less maintenance than most vehicles.
  • Toyoka Cybria City. The Cybria City from Toyoka factories is very reliable, if somewhat slow and not the first choice of many passengers. For long routes with many stops, this trooper is a good option.
  • Capitol Palm. The Palm is manufactured by Capitol factories. It's a fast, reliable vehicle, but not very energy conservative. Due to its speed, it's excellent on longer routes with few stops.
  • Stern-Berger Mate. When speed is what you want, Mate from Stern-Berger is your choice! Even though the Mate is small, it's very fast and attractive due to its modern design.

Get it when it's on sale. This pack adds the Monorail network to the game. Its incredible flexibility means you can weave it through buildings in a dense city with ease. People keep comparing it to Metro, but they

Definitely worth having in your transport arsenal. My only gripe is cosmetic regarding street lighting that clips through the platforms and rails. Otherwise, very glad I bought it :)

It depends, if you think monorail have a higher mobility than metro, than it's worth for you and if you think the capacity of monorail is so small that you need to launch monorail every 15 minutes to make the passenger

A nice piece of DLC for a nasty price, just wait for a sale and pick it up for about £2, as I did myself.
