Train World

Train World is a railroad simulation game that follows the development of railways across the ages. You build and manage a network, transport passengers and cargo, and upgrade from basic steam locomotives to complex, multi-engine haulers as the centuries pass.

Build your network

Plan routes, build stations and train lines, and expand into new regions. Maps range from 33 × 33 km (20 × 20 miles) to 197 × 197 km (120 × 120 miles), with different biomes and terrain. Each region has its own industry, passengers and cargo types, adding strategic choices as you open up more of the map.

You can construct your network with multiple types of tracks, bridges and tunnels. Passenger and cargo transport each have their own stations and infrastructure. The game describes more than 30 cargo types in its network overview, and over 150 unique cargo types in its feature list.

Research and logistics

A research system spans three time periods, each with distinct visuals, trains and infrastructure. You can choose from dozens of locomotives and wagons to assemble train sets, while a dynamic economy shapes the growing network.

Optional objectives can provide direction and earn cash. You can speed up time and switch between a top-down overview and a more detailed view when zoomed in.

Maps and construction

Maps offer room to grow your railway across varied biomes and terrain. As your network expands, you unlock regions and gain access to their industries, passengers and cargo.
