What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“Since it is being made by single developer, some intended feature such as controller support (ZUIKI, DDG, etc...), passenger system and conductor mode isn't implemented yet. I'd love to get your help and feedback to make further improvement for the game”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“I aim for full release (v.1) in Q2-Q4 2027, Date may vary. There might be some delay depending on the technical challenge”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“The mainline (Hayamori Railway) planned to be approx. 80-100km of route length, I also planning to have passenger and conductor mode. Freight operation might be possible in full release depending on technical challenge”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The current state and key feature of the Game since the start of version 0.9EA:
- 2 Fictional Railway operator both with distinct operational pattern and characteristic
- 4 Vehicle with different characteristic
- Approx 40km of meticulously handcrafted fully detailed route
- Features over 40 diagrams both local and express train spanning early morning, afternoon, and nighttime operation.
- 2 seasons available: spring and snowy winter
- Dynamic weather and environment changes
- Auto-drive mode, let you enjoy route scenery as passenger or trainspotter
- Photo mode”

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“RUNNING TRAIN may increase slightly in price after Early Access. Additional vehicle or branch line divert from main line might be sold as separate DLC”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“Please give us your feedback through the Steam community or discord server. Also feel free to reply or reach out on the developer's X/Twitter”
