Welcome to the TT-Wiki!

Welcome to the TT-Forums Wiki. This wiki aims to be the one stop for TTD players, veteran and beginner alike. It will eventually contain guides to the smallest things, such as building your first train line, and purchasing your first locomotive. That's the theory at least - it's still quite the work in progress!

TT Meet 2011
Initial planning for the TT Meet of 2011 in Manchester, UK

Other pages
This wiki is currently being redesigned to incorporate the TTDPatch wiki. You can also find the NewGRF specifications on their own wiki.
