Blog: The Life Of A Supreme Ruler
Ten years of Owen’s Transport Tycoon Station!
Filed under: — orudge @ 05/09/2010 2:11 am
Well, ten and a bit years ago, my Transport Tycoon Station was launched! (The anniversary was actually in July, but I’ve been a bit busy lately and didn’t notice, I’m afraid.) Since then, the site has grown enormously, with the development of several useful Transport Tycoon utilities, a comprehensive strategy guide and reference, saved games and scenarios, and, of course, The Transport Tycoon Forums, which originated as an offshoot of the site. The Transport Tycoon “scene” has also changed significantly, with the rise of TTDPatch in the early 2000s, and then the creation, release and further development of OpenTTD in the second half of the decade. Will we still be playing Transport Tycoon in 2020? I’ve no doubt the game will live on, and I’m sure the Transport Tycoon Station will still be here then too. And who knows, maybe I’ll have even finished the new Repository by then! 😉
EDIT: And, as a little tenth birthday present, I’ve updated some of the pages on the site, and even finished a couple of those pages that weren’t yet finished. Enjoy!
Wow has it been that long?

Thanks so much for remaining dedicated to a game that still has alot of followers! Although, it may not have been a Top 10 game, it still has its place in the Smithsonian Institute as one of the best simulation games in history (in my opinion!).
It’s nice to see that there is someone who remains dedicated and even supports and still contributes to such a great game as this one! You are probably close to the #1 contributor of all times or at least in the top 5! 🙂 I admire everything you done and the expenses you must deal with to keep your sites going must be difficult for you. I hope that someday I can make a contribution to you to show you my appreciation of your support and dedication to this great game!
You know what would be really neat and I hope someone will be able to do this one day… integrate Sim City with Transport Tycoon… that would be the ultimate game! Be able to build and grow the city and then add the transportation to it. It would be neat to incorporate alot of the features of Sim City into Transport Tycoon… it could become the ultimate game! It may even be marketable and be profitable to someone… like you mabye? 🙂
