For the first time in a railway simulator, you are both the driver and the company manager! This is your chance to take the controls of your locomotives and steer your company towards success by negotiating the right contracts and building your network.
Imagine driving your passengers or goods across 10 different countries, exploring the diverse landscapes of Europe from your cab. From the rolling countryside to bustling towns, tranquil forests to towering mountains, every journey is an adventure waiting to unfold.
Each locomotive in your fleet has its own unique characteristics, such as power and braking, which you’ll need to master to ensure smooth and efficient journeys. You’ll need to pay close attention to railway signs and adapt to varying weather conditions to keep your trains running on time.
But driving trains is just one aspect of your role. As the operator of a successful company, you’ll also need to manage the business side of things. This involves creating your own company, purchasing and maintaining your trains, hiring conductors, and assigning them new contracts.
You’ll also need to explore new routes and optimize your Passenger and Freight activities to ensure maximum profitability. Every decision you make will impact your bottom line, so strategic thinking is key to growing your business!
The Orient-Express Edition of Train Life: A Railway Simulator offers an even richer experience. It includes the iconic 1920’s Orient-Express Train and the 231 C Nord Steam Locomotive, along with 6 exclusive scenarios. You’ll also get access to the Paris-Vienna Road, and the Vienna and Strasbourg train stations, adding even more variety to your journeys.
In addition to these, you’ll have the opportunity to drive faithfully reproduced iconic trains, such as the ICE 3, ICE 4, and NEWAG Griffin. These trains are known for their speed and efficiency, and now you can experience what it’s like to be at the helm!
One of the unique features of this simulator is the ability to create and customize your own trains. You can modify their outer appearance to reflect your company’s brand, and even customize your cab interior to suit your personal style.
Managing your company involves more than just driving trains. You’ll need to hire conductors, choose contracts, build your network, and maintain your locomotives to prevent breakdowns and emergency repairs. It’s a challenging role, but with careful planning and strategic decision-making, you can ensure your company’s success.
Unexpected situations are part and parcel of running a railway company. Whether it’s a tree on the line, snow build-up on the tracks, or another train on your track, you’ll need to adapt your driving to the weather conditions and the time of day to prevent accidents. This adds an extra layer of realism to the game, making it a truly immersive experience.
