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.

Rail Log #17: The Upgrade Purge & The Golden Stop Button

Hello, dispatchers! Angel here, back on the tracks with another weekly Rail Log. This week, we're serving up a bite-sized update, packed with all the juicy details you need. So, buckle up, and let's get this express train rolling!
Game Description Image

Last Week's Progress: Staging Success

Staging version: It's shaping up nicely, like a well-oiled locomotive.
Regional Trains: We're all aboard the feedback train, refining and polishing as we go.

The Great Upgrade Purge

Interface upgrades: We've removed a bunch, unlocking them by default. We realized they were like the caboose - nice to have, but not essential.
Colored station signs: Now a standard feature. You can still turn them off if you prefer your stations in monochrome.

The Stop & Reverse Conundrum

'Reverse once Stopped' and 'Stop & Reverse' upgrades: Removed. The Reverse button now marks the train for reversal. We've added a new sound and animation for this, because who doesn't love a bit of drama?
The Golden STOP BUTTON: It's new, it's shiny, and it lets you stop and start your trains. It's like a pause button, but for trains!

The Road Ahead: Continuous Development

Post Update 12: We're switching to smaller, more frequent updates. It's like snacking, but for game development.
Upcoming features: Automation of regional trains and further UI improvements. We're not just removing upgrades, we promise!

As we pull into the station for this week's Rail Log, we want to hear from you! Got thoughts on the new upgrades? Feedback on the golden Stop Button? Or just want to share your experience with the staging version? We're all ears!

Hop aboard the discussion train on our community Discord. Your input is invaluable to us, and we're excited to hear what you have to say. Until next week, keep those signals green, and happy dispatching! Angel signing off.
