Starting A Realistic City With Important Infrastructure in Cities Skylines | Crystal Reef EP2

Welcome to Crystal Reef County, Florida - our chosen spot for the start of a new realistic mega city in Cities Skylines! Come along as we attempt to build realistic cities and areas using only Vanilla Assets!

In this episode, we build up the railway and train infrastructure and passenger station, add in the initial downtown road layout for the first major city, and enable downtown connections through a sunken stretch of highway!

- What's the rationale behind this project:
With Cities Skylines 2 coming sometime this year, the time feels right for an attempt at an all-Vanilla Assets build - this is something I have been contemplating for a bit and hinted at earlier.
