Maximum Passengers Per Hour

Values of Number of Streets & Spaces per Street are based on article Contractor Station Street Sizes.

The Good News
Completing all of the contracts for each contractor can be a real challenge. One of the rewards for completing all contracts for a single contractor is that you gain control of that contractor's train station! Each of these stations can be configured to maximize the number of passengers per hour (/hr) that it produces. These passengers are added to your station's /hr. This is a big benefit later in the game when some contractors demand large sums of cash. With a high /hr count, you will be able to send full passenger wagons sooner to help fulfill the contracts faster. For example, Giovanni's first contract requires that you send ! If you are producing only 200 /hr, this contract will take an extremely long time!

To maximize the output of a station, you may use buildings: The tables below show which buildings will maximize each station's potential.
 * that were present in the station before you started the first contract.
 * that you built to complete a contract.
 * that you purchase from the contractor's shop after completing all contracts.

The Bad News
Except for Mrs. Wilma's station, maximizing a station's /hr can be expensive. For instance, to maximize Sam's station, you need to send him,. and !! Even with all those resources committed to the station, you will gain only /hr.

At the bottom of the page is a summary of all the resources required to maximize all of the stations, up to and including Lucy's. This will give you a much clearer idea of what to expect if you choose to accept this mission. This article will self destruct in 5 seconds...

Giovanni: PRELIMINARY
'''Note: This is a preliminary projection! The calculations are based on nothing more than assumptions about what is and isn't available at Giovanni's station and in his shop. Something may be hiding or have a pass/hr/size ratio larger than stuff in the shop or the station space count may be off. USE AT YOUR OWN RISK until these values are confirmed'''
