What is Train Fever?

This single-player railroad business simulation starts in 1850. You build tracks and stations, buy vehicles, and manage passenger and freight routes to serve cities as they grow.

For you if...

  • +you enjoy planning rail networks and watching cities grow
  • +you prefer slower, single-player transport management

Not for you if...

  • −you want fast-paced action rather than managing transport routes
  • −you avoid management systems with a steep learning curve

What players say
