Exploring the rich history of the world’s transport systems has never been easier with Transport Fever 2.

If you’ve already sunk hours into this game, you know why it’s awesome.

And yet, vanilla might leave you wanting a bit more.

Well here are some of the best mods to try out for a bit of extra flavor.

Before you even get started with new mods, you’re going to want to get Saber Kitsune’s Achievements w/ Mods first.

The last thing we’d want is to invest hours into a game and not have anything to show for it in the end.

Mods usually prevent you from earning game achievements, but you won’t have to worry about that with this one installed.

 

19. More Line Colors by LINX

This next one might not seem like much right now.

But as you progress through the game, you’re inevitably going to reach a point where you’re going to want to have it available.

Starting off with just a few train lines, things might still be quite simple to manage.

Once you’ve grown your business exponentially and have multiple lines sprawling across most of the map, that’s where things get a bit more challenging.

Keeping track of what goes where can be quite confusing, and More Line Colors by LINX is a great way to make things just a bit easier.

This mod gives you a whole new set of colors to assign to your train lines.

 

18. Enhanced Train Station Cargo Capacity

Another big challenge you’ll bump into is cargo space for your stations.

Transporting goods is your biggest source of income. And putting two and two together – you’re going to want to get the most possible amount of anything with each trip.

Enhanced Train Station Cargo Capacity aims to simplify this, making it possible to store cargo on all consecutive platforms in your station.

 

17. Train Sound Mod

There’s nothing more satisfying in Transport Fever 2 than seeing the railway systems you built from the ground-up running smoothly.

Well what if I told you there was a way to take that sense of achievement up a notch?

Jay_Emanuel’s Train Sound Mod can help with that, swapping out the base game’s default train sounds with much more distinct and realistic samples – making for a much more immersive experience overall.

Watching your trains travel across the map just wouldn’t be as glorious if they didn’t sound this good.

 

16. Urban Bus Stops

The game also offers a sandbox mode where you’re pretty much free to do anything you want. And for many – this is where the real fun starts.
