The Train: Escape to Normandy

The Train: Escape to Normandy is set in August 1944, as German forces evacuate occupied France ahead of the advancing Allies. A heavily armed German train near Metz carries France’s plundered art collection, including works by Renoir, Monet and Picasso, bound for Berlin. You lead the French Resistance in an attempt to capture the train and take it through enemy lines to meet the Allies at Riviere, Normandy.

Take the train

With a corps of Resistance fighters, you commandeer and engineer a WWII locomotive while fighting enemy forces on land, in the air and at sea. Enemy forces may set traps, launch ambushes or sabotage your progress at stations, bridges and crossings. Enemy planes pursue and strafe the train, while gunboats can blast it off the rails.
