What is Tiny Rails?

In this single-player train management sim, you inherit your grandfather's small railroad and expand it across a pixel-art world map. Pick destinations, carry passengers and cargo between stations, trade supplies, and upgrade train cars to improve passenger happiness.

For you if...

  • +you enjoy a calm game you can leave running
  • +you like customizing one train instead of managing a fleet

Not for you if...

  • you want to lay tracks and manage railway signals
  • you need frequent decisions between station stops
