Also, I think a interior cam would be nice, like from the drivers veiw.

Is there a steam train ver

Love it

why is the ui so bad

what rhe sigma is this aah game

DUUUUUUUUUUDE IT LOOKS NICE WELL DONE M IDEN!!!

Thank you!

Looks good, are there freight trains too or is it just passgenger trains?

Thanks. Yes, they are available in several missions and in free play mode. 

Thanks, it loads very well now.

I Like Trains

Amazing game overall, but sometimes it takes too long to load, or just doesn't load at all.

Thank you. I hope it is fixed now.

(+1)

no loading


I'm getting the same problem

i get on easily

Is not showing loading progress. Some bug. But should load. Is it not loading if you wait?

please add an option in the game where the entire game can be changed to a post apocalyptic wasteland with abandoned rusting locomotives sitting on the rails, some overturned or on fire, some crashed head on, others derailed from high speed ( likely because the driver was overwhelmed with things going on in the carriages and turned and died in the drivers cab leaning on the controls), buildings in complete state of decay or on fire. things like that would be really nice. because in the late 1990s and early 2000s that era was known for people coming up with conspiracies of that happening and it would be cool for it to come into play ingame, like your driving your train normally then fwoosh another train passes by you on fire. that would be like something out of dawn of the dead 2004 or fear the walking dead season 1.

(+1)

Nah, Just turn the world into a frozen wasteland and give me the Eternal Engine and I'd be stoked.

zombie apocalypse games are fun, imagine having that in electric trains where the tracks and stations are like a ghost town and there is an option in settings for creepy misty fog.

😊👍

Thank you.

我是中国人,我非常喜欢这个游戏。作者可以制造中国动车组或中国机车吗?我期待着支持你。加油。

我一个人做游戏。对我来说这仍然是一个不可能完成的任务。

very addicting i love it, can you make a cockpit view? just suggestion. 

It's not possible due the game optimization. Sorry.

My favourite game at the moment, thank you. There seems to be a bug on level 4 (macOS) where the destination is not highlighted, so the level never ends.
v0_801

Edit: the more I play this the more impressed I am. The graphics are so beautiful as is the UI. It's so immersive and the craftsmanship and quality are up there with the better paid games on app stores. Very well done.

Thank you! You could download new version.

sheriffcubic WAT A GOOD TRAIN PICTURE :DDD

(-1)

thankyou american locomotives with the old cow catcher and huge funnels are legendary to railroads over there.

(2 edits) (+3)

here's a american steam locomotive The Union Pacific 4-4-0 that also should be implemented into the game 

it was a famous steam train that went from sacramento california halfway across the united states in 1869 and 1870. it reached a top speed of 72km/h. the cowcatcher was known on the front of the train that was used to move animals off the tracks and clear debry.true facts.not only did it carry passengers and cargo, but it carried mail, guns and ammunition to support the civil war troops on the battlefields.

another famous train known all too well in australia that travels from between Brisbane, Bundaberg and Rockhampton.it travels a maximium speed of 160km/h.

ill be driving that type of train :DD

probally if its added to the game maybe who knows if the developer may take aboard this idea. :)

 just like a few changes to some international trains like the class A4 mallard liner british passenger train from 1939, or the flying scotsman, a famous class A passenger steam train known in the united kingdom for going from london to edinbourgh in 1922 at a top speed of 100KM and arriving in under 6 hours, or maybe the french high speed passenger train from the mid 1950s the CC 7121 that reached an incredible high speed of 243KM in 1954. 

CC 7121 electric passenger train

I hope this autumn. Sorry for late answer. I need to work. The game is like a hobby. I can't answer all the time.  

(+1)(-1)

Cool game! It has a lot of missions and free play as well it was very interesting. Good work!

ik its cool

Thank you!

so uhh... what is this music being used called because i really liek it but have no idea what it is called and i cant find anything that could tell me about this amazing tune so i created an account just to ask this lmao so what is this track called cuz i really want to listen to it on its own

The music is made for the game. You could download it here https://disk.yandex.ru/d/w7qkAzCzsx9vhw

can you like make british maps and lines from kings cross to kings lynn and peterbough

The game are limited with 1520mm of track width at the moment.

(-1)

I hope the developer will add some new steam locomotives like the flying scotsman or the LNER Class A4 4468 Mallard british steam locomotive, maybe even some american steam locomotives aswell and maybe a station platform gaurdsmen and signaller at each station just to make it more realstic because it is a train simulation game. 

or maybe the class 801 and 387

The game has track width 1520mm. Maybe it will be possible to add some more in the future. It's hard to promise. 

When is the next mission and any new maps coming out

It will be new map. You could check latest news here https://t.me/electrictrainschannel

This game is not about changing the tracks, it's about being quick enough to change them.

The window to be able to change the tracks is so small, it is very frustrating.

This game already assumes that I know everything about this game, I literally don't know how it's going to highlight the station, or how to open the doors. Or even what the colour of the arrows mean.

It needs a lot of polish. Also it doesn't let me restart normally unless I crash into a train.

Thank you. 

Did the message with "open door" show the button to press?

You could freely restart the game. Could you record some video with your problem?

In my second play, I realized that I didn't really read the description the first time, and just assumed that the game will tell me that when I will need to know that.

Okay, thanks.

I MANGAGE TO GET TO 317KPH ON THE COAST MAP

thats impossible tell me how you acheived this I only managed to get the steam locomotive which I call the flying scotsman up to 199KPM no higher. I also took a high speed locomotive up to a top speed with 8 passenger carriages to 270 with an electric locomotive to give it the extra boost it needs to help it. also to achieve both these high speeds you need accelerate down a straight stretch of track otherwise your train goes flying through the air and making friends with the hard grass.

well i wait for the blue sparks then i go fast

so tell me einstein what locomotive did you use to reach 317KPH? I used the high speed diseal locomotive and took it up to a top speed of 271.

well i use a electric locomotive a high speed one and i use blue sparks and i went zooming

when will the new map will be terminating at stations?

What do you do in freeplay with the snowplow if the snow spawns in large stations because the deployed snowplow crashes the train on the high platforms.

(2 edits)

Short press of 4 opens only bottom part of snowplow. It can be used for station cleaning.

(+1)(-1)

heres a suggestion for the developer m-iden you should include a feature that when you arrive at a station an announcement comes over the speaker for train your operating. and you see AIS walking on the platform towards your train and if you have a certain amount of points you can spend them on crew for your train such as: a platform porter, tickets master, station gaurd and operator, train signaler and gaurdsmen which blows a whistle to let people know their departing. maybe even a viewable cab where you can see a train driver in the seat or if its for the steam locomotive you can see a firemen or a stroker puting in coal.security gaurds on each platform and maybe in your train. thats an idea you should add to the game in the next update.

Thanks for idea.

(-1)

none of these actually improve the game experience and distract from improving the game with new missions, trains, maps and mechanics. Not to mention this is an indie game, not a triple-a game which has resources to spend on having a fucking porter. if you want a game which could have those sorts of features, play a tycoon game or a game like Train Sim World

(+1)(-2)

games like electric trains should have added improvements in the game and adding station porters or platform gaurds is a great idea

HOW DO YOU GET PAST MISSION 4 ITS IMPOSSIBLE

(+1)

Fortunately, your train's top speed is a fair bit higher than the target train. There's two good tactics for this.

One is to take advantage of setting the switch ahead of you shunting the target train onto the 2nd track before it's ready to do so, thereby sticking them behind a slower train early on and allowing you to pass with ease. This is a little difficult to pull off and requires repeatedly setting the route about the time the target train approaches the switch.

The other is to make good, careful use of the left-most tracks for passing trains and obstacles at certain points. Frequent reference to the map and care observing positions of oncoming trains is crucial to this.

(-1)

its easy go for the blue sparks it lets you go even faster

EEEEEE

THIS IS GONNA BE GREAT

TO BE A TRAIN DRIVER I ALWAYS DREAMED ONE WHEN IM OLDER

ti drive the class 465 or maybe a class 387

idk

(1 edit)

how hard is it to use the comment section for actual fucking comments

This game is really fun, but the AI is pretty terrible. Keep having to redo missions because trains just careen into my lane without warning and causing a 20 min mission to stretch even longer.

(-4)

bro WOULD YOU SHUT THE FUCK UP YOU BASTARD NOTHING WRONG

(+1)

I still enjoy this game my man, I can absolutely talk about the faults. The AI is just kinda wack.

hey hey calm down
