A little about this guide
In his original Train Fever list, Zaubermuffin said that he automated the guide creation using the game files, I assume he managed to get into either configs or the database. Unfortunately I could not automate that with Transport Fever, so the entire guide is written manually. (I did however manage to get all the vehicle pictures straight off game files) Please tell me if there are any mistakes and/or formatting mismatches, that would be greatly appreciated :)

The European vehicle list is available here:
http://gtm.steamproxy.vip/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=796775735

To-do list / Known issues
- proofreading, checking for any mistakes, feel free to comment if you spot any :)
- multiple unit section gets messed up if viewed in a small sized window. not much i can do there unfortunately :/

Feedback and Suggestions
I'm open to all of it, the more the better :)

Special thanks to:
- BOCHENSKI (location of vehicle configs)
