A friend just wrote: "This whole ship thing is a real pain .... you end up with the same amount as a 10 car train, but have to work for hours to get it ....I may just put it all on hold until they revise it somehow."

Mine are going in to dry dock until Raul and crew can make it worth the effort. Farm Town is a fantastic program and a wonderful way to spend spare time. Looking forward to the next release!
Perry, to you and your friend and countless others here in the forum that feels the amount of work required just to get the same as a full train. First of all, I agree it requires a lot of work and I am weighing my options on whether it justifies my time. But, I am also a train owner, and yes I can sit back on my laurels and wait for the train to come back (always full ) , but the difference is cost. To get a full ship of products cost a few coin (free) and yes a ton of work. For the train to bring back that much is 630 FC (excluding the engine). The reason for 630 FC is that the ship carries the same products as 18 different train freight cars. So the options are, FREE with a ton of work, 630 FC and sit back and relax, or do both if you are rich and a glutton for punishment. Anything else would be devaluating the money I spent on trains.

Taz, FYI

I believe it is just 18 cars that are combined into the 10 containers. the 19th train car carries the actual animals, (cows, hens, etc.) and they are not part of the containers.

Me too, Susan, usually I just get 1 but this time I was going to get two. Whats worst, I didn't notice it was 0 out till after I complete the 7th one and it didn't even count it, it's like the counter isn't working. Rat, happy new year to us, huh!

Either I'm losing my marbles (a distinct possibility), or my completed co-op quests suddenly disappeared. I think I had 11 completed, and with my latest two was likely to get 2 FC.

10 containers + 30 ports = 1.4+million products for me
