Well, I'll get straight to it.

If you have a really profitable route, like you're taking grain and
livestock to a factory (best way to do this, parallel lines, no signals,
delays yer train too much) and you also control the goods coming out of it,
and you want to keep the enemies away, this is what you do...

To do this, you need eyes like a hawk, as you have to keep patrolling the
factory area. When a computer decides to build a railway station, then
quickly, trap him in by building pieces of rail all the way around it,
leaving no spaces free. Now the computer will try, but never get his rail
into that station, wasting him money.
If they build a lorry station, you have to see what's going on. If you are
early, you can often do this.
As the AI is building his road into the city, what you do, is add your own
piece of road. They always use it. Say they build two pieces of road in a
northwesterly direction then you add a piece of road onto the end, making it
three pieces long, the enemy will then continue to build adding the forth,
fifth and so on. Once they send out the trucks, let them all collect their
cargo and then destroy the piece of road you own, thus trapping your
enemies. Their trucks then waste a lot of the AI's money in running costs.
Anti-comptitive maybe, but it stops them big time.
There is another way, but it can only be used if they connect to one of your
roads. All you do is just remove the corner of the connection between your
road, and his. Trapped!

I'm not going to give you any more. There is a contest on the way you
know!!!

PS: Does anyone know if Chris Sawyer, or Microprose are going to make a TT2
or 3 it maybe if you count TTDLX as the second one. In it, I think they
should include underground trains, like the subways in America.
