### 5/5 — It was fun but…

*2026-07-12, version 1.0.90*

It was very fun but I keep getting the wrong destinations so please remove all other destinations instead of Around the World nor Metropolis

### 5/5 — Blocked in Brazil

*2026-07-03*

It’s blocked in my country! It started with the game in my computer. We still could play in my cell phone, but now it’s not allowed either. The thing is about age, but I’m over 60. What can I do?

**Developer response:** Hello! Thank you for sharing your concern. We're sorry to hear about the issue you're facing. Unfortunately, for such specific cases, we recommend contacting support for detailed assistance. Please reach out through this link: Support: https://portal.pixelfederation.com/en/trainstation/support. Thank you for your patience—your enjoyment is important to us!

### 1/5 — All Aboard…for derailments?

*2026-05-28, version 1.0.89*

I used to play this game when it first came out. I LOVED it. Deleted my account unfortunately and so I recently restarted. I submitted several tickets but with no response. I can’t link my App account and I can’t add friends. Also noticed several issues with train details and the Encyclopedia having numerous pages. It is very frustrating and the game suffers from numerous bugs. Pixel Federation, please help.

### 5/5 — Nostalgia

### 5/5 — GIVE IT A GO!

*2026-05-19, version 1.0.89*

THIS GAME IS ENTERTAINING AND EDUCATIONAL INCLUDING TEACHING THE BENEFITS OF SHARING AND WORKING WITH OTHERS! THANK YOU FOR MAKING MY NIGHTS ENJOYABLE!!

### 5/5 — All Aboard for Great Fun!

*2026-04-29, version 1.0.89*

I used to play this game when it first came out and I loved it. I recently restarted because why not? It’s still as enjoyable as the first time I played it. There are a few things though that could use some fixing. I miss the old sound effects such as the conductor’s whistle when the trains depart and the steam whistle for the steam engines and diesel horns for the diesel and electric trains, plus the old sounds that the locomotives made when they pulled into stations. I also miss the old music found at the stations. I find the current music at the stations to be rather annoying and would love to switch to the older music. Some of the engines have some errors in their movement like driving rods not lining up properly or pixels out of place. And when a train departs they disappear rather quickly. I rather enjoyed watching a long train pull out of the station, counting the cars as they passed. I’m hoping some of the old music can be brought back as I really miss that, like the old theme for the Nippon station. Also, please bring back gold wagons for the Golden Forney. It looks lonely with just a golden baggage car behind it.

EDIT: Still playing and enjoying the game, though I wanted to know who to contact regarding new suggestions for the game, including new levels, rolling stock, locomotives, challenges, etc. and new cars to be added to already existing sets.

### 2/5 — Not bad but tedious

*2026-04-26, version 1.0.89*

This game is overall okay tho unrealistic at times with some of the locomotives or rolling stock. (Ig to avoid copyright at times) However this game today and another previous time have logged me out of my account both times being at a significantly high level. I don’t understand why this happens but I spent real money on this game and for the fact my account is gone and there’s nothing I can do about it is frankly inexcusable. This game is also practically a pay to win too.

### 5/5 — Love this game.

*2026-04-20, version 1.0.89*

Love this game. Do wish that for those playing not connected to facebook that once you own a contractor’s station that the contractor sent gifts and random trains like a neighbor would and you could send gifts to them. There are a few achievements that you can’t achieve without neighbors. Also, I’d like more real train paint jobs or at least very similar and fewer fantasy artwork paint jobs. They are trains, not rolling art canvases.

### 5/5 — yup

*2026-04-16, version 1.0.89*

fun and relaxing
