Train Yard Builder

In Train Yard Builder, players will control a character who is the grandchild of an experienced model railroading enthusiast. He will inherit a house that has been adapted for developing modeling passion. By completing further tasks, players will unlock new rooms in the house, thereby gaining access to previously unavailable models and mechanics. The quests available in the game can be categorized into three types – smaller story tasks, larger story quests associated with preparing specific models for museum exhibits, and random assignments. In the smaller tasks, players will engage in activities such as modifying the protagonist's grandfather's mock-ups by removing unnecessary elements and adding missing ones or conducting test runs of trains on existing mock-ups.

  • The ability to create professional mock-ups – utilize workbenches of different dimensions and terrain configurations to craft unique projects.
  • The ability to create dioramas – use dioramas as home decorations or integral parts of larger projects.
  • The opportunity to display mock-ups and dioramas in the Museum – earn rewards and see how your projects look as museum exhibits.
  • Extensive customization options – unleash your creativity by freely changing the colors of individual model elements, mock-ups, and dioramas
