In times like these, what we need to focus on is the things that unite us: trains, and becoming the best elite pro g*mers we can be

So comrades, let's talk about games about trains (or heavily featuring trains)! I'll start:

Railway Empire - probably the best one I've found as a successor to the Railway Tycoons, although certainly not perfect. The track-laying part is pretty satisfying, and it's cool how city development is driven by providing them with diversity of freight. They've made quite a few really good updates over its life, to tweak difficulty options and also give stations with built-in switches so you don't have to worry about tedious platform management (seriously needed). Absolutely fucking terrible UI though, and a few really baffling design decisions, but overall really fun.

Train Valley 2 - More of a puzzle game, but it's a puzzle game about trains. It's light and fun, with really cute graphics and all the levels are in these cool different areas that look fantastic. Great music too.

Railroad Corporation - I spent ten minutes watching some guy play this on youtube and it looked pretty bad, anyone tried it?

Workers and Resources - Soviet Republic - seems all a bit much for me but I hear really good things about it, and I gather it goes pretty heavy on the trains?

I don't know much about train driver simulators but I know they're out there, anyone want to chime in?
