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...

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

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'''

Total Resources Commited and Max Pass/Hr.
'''Please Note: The resources for Mizuki, Lucy and Giovanni have not been added to this matrix because the values for their resources are still preliminary. As each is confirmed, their final values will be added. Thanks.'''
