Model Railways APK for Android

Build your own train model

Model Railways is a free simulation in which you can make your own model railway system. Developed by Sa Hoang, this game gives a fun and colorful way for you to experience what it's like to create a virtual train model. It also offers a relaxing way to play since it doesn't involve any action or strategizing.

While the goal of Model Railways is easy to understand, the actual gameplay can leave you confused. That's because it doesn't have a tutorial to help you get familiar with the mechanics. It only offers hints but no further explanations are given.

Add trains, purchase buildings, and make money

The main objective of Model Railways is to earn lots of money so you can buy more cars for your train and build establishments around the tracks. You can get in-game earnings by passing through the toll gates on the map, which the train automatically does without you doing anything. With this mechanic, you can consider this simulator as an idle game.

An idle game is where you can progress with little to no interaction with it. However, you can still have more interactive gameplay if you want. The first thing you can do is speed up the train's motion by continuously tapping on the screen. Doing so allows it to run and pass through the toll gates faster — thereby allowing you to earn more money for train cars and buildings.

Another interactive element of this game is buying and placing the establishments around the track. Each infrastructure will cost a certain amount of money, so you'll have to save up for them by operating your train. These buildings will also give you earnings. However, unlike the automatic collection when your train passes through a toll gate, you'll have to gather the money from these establishments manually.

A relaxing game

Model Railways is the modern way of creating a playable train track. The objective is pretty easy to understand, although some mechanics can be hard to grasp on the first run. You'll eventually learn these elements as you tap away on your screen, buy cars, purchase buildings, and earn more money. You can even choose to leave the game alone or be more interactive with it.
