### 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 — Great game for train nerds!

*2026-03-07, version 1.0.89*

With all types of trains, coaches, fright cars, and a museum to see all you locomotives and a bit of history about it. This game is great for all ages! There are even events for your train addiction! 🚂

### 5/5 — Trainstation

*2026-02-21, version 1.0.89*

Jeux terriblement bien 👌👍

### 4/5 — Good

*2026-02-18, version 1.0.89*

Fun game that i like.

### 5/5 — ADDICTING!!!

*2026-02-14*

As a long time Railfan and a small YouTuber, this game has a little of everything!!! I manage a small station in a big city, trains come and go, you gather materials, build your station, make contracts across the world, help them build their stations, they reward you, you buy better and better rail equipment to earn faster, you complete contract quests for rewards, ITS JUST SO DUN!!!! 11/10 WOULD RECOMMEND!! 

If I could change one thing, I would make it to where you have an option to control trains on their journey, like a real engineer, traversing towns, horning at rail crossings, & more

**Developer response:** Thank you for the glowing review and your fantastic suggestion! We're thrilled that you're enjoying all the elements of the game so much. Your idea for controlling the trains sounds exciting, and we'll be sure to share it with our team for consideration. Happy railroading!

### 5/5 — Please add the k4 its apart from Pennsylvania lore please also 5 stars

*2026-02-04, version 1.0.89*

K4 is the best because it one of americas first ever train and I really want it in the game

### 4/5 — Great but hard to get to highest level

*2026-02-03*

I think the game TrainStation is a really nice addition to my app collection. You can dispatch trains and get lots of money to buy more trains and items in your world. The reason I put only four stars is because it is really hard to get to higher levels and every level you only get one to two trains in the shop and even then some are really expensive. I also wish that there was a feature where you could buy to higher levels because I would really like to find a way/cheat to get there within the game.

**Developer response:** Thank you for your thoughtful feedback! We're thrilled you enjoy TrainStation and appreciate your insights on earning and leveling up. We'll share your suggestions with the team to improve the experience. Keep exploring and building your world—there are exciting rewards ahead!

### 5/5 — Jogo muito bom

*2025-12-30*

Cara eu jogava esse jogo quando eu era muito pequeno e recentemente já mais grande voltei jogar e ele ainda continua bom! O único lado ruim dele é porque muitas coisas são pay to win mas tirando isso ele é muito bom! Recomendo jogar

**Developer response:** Olá! Agradecemos por compartilhar essa lembrança com a gente! Ficamos felizes em saber que você está gostando do jogo novamente. Sua opinião sobre o equilíbrio é muito valiosa, e vamos levá-la em conta. Aproveite sua jornada ferroviária!

### 2/5 — Lost All Progress

*2025-12-10, version 1.0.88*

I got up to a decent level. I think it was something around 100 if I remember correctly. 

Well I haven’t played in a few weeks because life, and when I went on the game it asked me to log in.

Now, I don’t remember if the game asked me to log in from the beginning, I don’t think it did but I don’t remember. But normally when I log in I use apple log in. So I did it and it said “successfully logged in” but I was back to level 0.

Yeah I’m not doing all that again. The game is WAY too slow to go through it all over again.

I don’t know if it’s something the devs did but damn, it’s a shame.

### 5/5 — I like this game.

### 2/5 — Enjoyable…but…

*2025-12-01, version 1.0.88*

Hi there Developers, I enjoy the concept of the game, but to be fair to players who can’t be on your game 24/7, goals need to have more time to give chance to achieve more. I’m not saying you should be able to accomplish everything, but just a little adjusting would not make you feel you just want to give up! You must have the statistics on the time frames players spend on your game, and it could be graduated to accommodate varied amounts of time. I found the last challenge overwhelmingly impossible to reach targets, so I’m interested to know how other players found it. Please consider allowing more time before ending challenges are ended, otherwise players will give up altogether! Thankyou for reading my review. Player Jewel

### 3/5 — Can be tedious

*2025-11-26, version 1.0.88*

I have been playing this game for about 10 years. The tasks are always the same which doesn’t bother me but the fact that there are no presets makes it very tedious. Always have to tear down and later rebuild the same stuff.

### 5/5 — Please add the k4 its apart from Pennsylvania lore please also 5 stars

### 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.

### 1/5 — Don’t play

*2025-11-28, version 1.0.88*

Don’t play this game you can’t get to level 25 without the game and the developers, forcing you to use the gems and to buy gems to continue the game. It didn’t used to be that way they changed it to make you pay don’t play this game.

### 1/5 — Недостуно

### 1/5 — más accesible

*2025-03-26, version 1.0.86*

### 1/5 — Awful

*2025-02-05, version 1.0.85*

Deleted my account after I was level 215 been playing this game for over 2 years and had so much progress. I cannot believe they deleted my progress and I paid for the deals and stuff they offered. I will never get another game from pixel federation ever again. Do Not Download.

### 1/5 — タイトル

### 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?

### 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.

### 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
