What I find interesting is to build a complex but highly profitable network, then using the Scenario editor, save it, then play it ... this gives all your transport to the AI opponents, who can't cope with the network and just rip it all up, usually starting with stations, leaving trains stranded everywhere. In one city, one AI opponent built three separate stations, all carrying passengers to different places. And then wondered why his ratings in each station were so low...
