I think it should be used in route building to transport you around your route.

When you are building an area, the pump cart is there on track. Double click on it and you get a list/menu of preset locations on your route to which you can select and either switch to the place straight away or jump on the cart for the ride along.
For disclosure, I am affiliated with a third party developer however, I do not know anything about any future releases unless I'm working on them and even then, I'd be breaking years worth of built up trust to say anything about it ;-)

Excellent suggestion. With some animated workmen in hi-vi jackets too, perhaps. I much prefer travelling around my routes-in-progress by rail as opposed to using the flyout.

Now what a great idea, my daughter donated me a cross trainer, after my retirement to try and keep me fit, now the thought of placing it in front of the 37in TV/Monitor and it would make exercising a lot more enjoyable. Keep up the the pressure somebody will come up with something.

The wheels don't look quite right. Maybe they are too round, plus those boards look like ash and not oak or beech :evil:

no no, this is a wickham

I've been thinking about the pump...... It's going to look very odd without someone "pumping" it will it come with some interchangeable pumpers ???
Interesting problem, does clicking on it to drive it "add" a pumper ? I foresee a problem if its that guy in the blue shirt who seems to drive everything ! and someone in a hivis will upset everyone else !!
