Workshop Highlights - March
One thing we wanted to try and showcase this month was at least one good inventory map, but there was one big problem - A majority of the maps we knew about were contest submissions. Featuring one of them would give it an unfair boost ahead of the others by giving it more recognition, so instead we've featured a small map that's not part of the contest. Artificity is a short but sweet map, where only the mainline on this fairly small route is built for you. It's up to you to connect the branch to Alamogordo and City Spur, and maybe you need a few extra connections so trains can pass each other... The space to build is kinda limited and can be tricky to master, but there's more than enough materials given to the player to beat this level without too much trouble.
If you've never gotten around to playing any of Der Drache's career levels, you're missing out on quite a few fun challenges. There's always another train to keep track of from start to finish, and the routes trains need to take aren't always as simple as they may seem... These levels are well-crafted, and Copenhagen is no exception.
Terminus stations are a classic way to make a map visually distinct, while also adding an interesting challenge to the level by having a bottlenecked entry point into the station. This level does that well, but it also has an oddly-placed loop... what's that there for? Old, but still good, this map is difficult, but fun. Are you up for the challenge? Alongside these featured maps, the curated list has some new additions:

Hey folks! It's March, and you know what that means, right?
If you thought "It's time for new workshop highlights", well... yeah, that's true, but that's low-hanging fruit. It's the title of this article, after all...
It also means the Contest is closing soon. If you'd like your level to qualify, submit soon! Submissions close this Saturday. If you're not interested in submitting, why not play the levels and vote instead?
Alright, enough of that. You already know about the contest. What about this month's front-page features, though?

Copenhagen

South Station
Terminus stations are a classic way to make a map visually distinct, while also adding an interesting challenge to the level by having a bottlenecked entry point into the station. This level does that well, but it also has an oddly-placed loop... what's that there for? Old, but still good, this map is difficult, but fun. Are you up for the challenge?

Rail Route [linux] [280.41 M]
Rail Route is a train dispatcher simulator. You negotiate contracts, build rail roads, set up routes for trains and control the traffic. Unlock features of your dispatcher interface, upgrade railway network elements and research new technologies that allow you to automate the operations!
Manual Routing
Manual Routing is basic mode to control the rail roads from the beginning of the game. You set up switches and signals one by one. Nothing but your skill and focus prevent collisions.Automated Routing
Automated Routing helps when traffic becomes busy on a complex yard. You need a few clicks to set up all switches and signals en route. Collision avoidance included. Available later in the game when you unlock it and upgrade the signals.Building
Build your own rail network to optimize the traffic. Be creative and fill every possible space you have.Automation
Automation allows you to operate your railway network without your hands on. Your growing traffic does not lock you in the operations, freeing your hands for further expansion. You build the automation sensors and set up route to create when trains go by.Level Editor
Level editor allows you to create a custom board with everything that comes with it. Create a schematic of your hometown rail roads, your imaginary rail network or even model the Tube rapid transit system using it! The rectangles you see moving can be modern or historic trains, the underground trains, trams, monorails, just whatever you imagine.MINIMAL SETUP
