Trains (Spinnaker)

Trains is a top-down management game set in the steam-powered train era. Players control a train to transport goods between stations, loading raw materials at one station and delivering them to industries in need. The goal is to earn money by making deliveries quickly, with extra profits for meeting urgent demands. The game displays industry supply levels on-screen, guiding players on where to deliver goods next.

The train can only move forward and backward along the tracks, with direction changes happening at switches. Each action consumes coal, which must be replenished at coal yards, with penalties for running out. The game deducts money for payroll every few minutes and imposes fines for crashes. Each level features a unique track layout across various terrains, and completing deliveries builds a new track to progress to the next level.
