You, our community has been the foundation of Rail Route's success, and we're thrilled to have you on board. Announcing that we are leaving Early Access and releasing 1.0 in February is a huge step for us. To mark this milestone, we're announcing "The Shanghai Rail Riddle" contest on the endless map of Shanghai. What better way to celebrate than by testing your rail dispatching skills in one of the world's busiest train hubs? The Challenge: Keep 'em on time! Starting today and running until Thursday the 30th of November, we invite you to join "The Shanghai Rail Riddle" contest. Your mission is to keep as many trains running "on time" in cycle 10. It's a challenge for those who enjoy solving puzzles and optimizing rail systems. How to Join the Contest

• Load up Rail Route and select the endless map of Shanghai.
• Dispatch trains and aim to keep as many as possible punctual in the 10th cycle.

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.
