Rail Route - a train dispatcher simulator (tuxdb.com)

▶

Another month, another set of maps to try! Unfortunately, no Rush Hour ones yet - we've all been busy on other things recently and haven't really had the time to try any. We've been hard at work with something special, and just haven't had much of a chance to get any onto the list yet. Sorry! Despite this, we've still got a good handful of creative maps for you to try! Why don't we just get right into it?

Not many maps use the (Any) platform feature. It's understandable, honestly - Figuring out how to schedule a map when you can't see the timetables is really tricky, and making it possible to somewhat-fairly beat is even more of a challenge. Yet somehow, this stage pushes things further, forcing you to use the right platforms for the right trains at its central station. This map really isn't THAT hard, but if you're looking for a unique challenge, give it a go!

Hamburg Port Railway North

Shunting may not be available, but that won't stop anyone from making freight-centric maps! The port has plenty of services that need to rumble around, often with trains running at reduced speeds as they run backwards through long stretches of track. Plus, tons of trains reverse outside of stations, and there's a fair share of unique stations to visit. Think you've got the patience to master this map?

Growing Metropolis

We didn't really feature any of the runner-ups for last month's contest... Well, now's the time! Growing Metropolis came in close second to Westendhafen, and for good reason - the map plays similarly to Rush Hour, with the map getting harder and more complex wave after wave as you slowly upgrade your system. It was a good bit tougher than Westendhafen, though, so don't expect any walk in the park here! Alongside these featured maps, the curated list has some new additions:

Martslock
Aresund
Lyon Part-Dieu
Garnish
Derby Yard

That's all for this month. Hope you enjoy this month's picks! - SteR Follow us:

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.
