Passenger Tutorial | Train Life part 2

Train Life: A Railway Simulator seeks to provide the game for train fans that truck fans have been enjoying in Euro and American Truck Simulator for years. In this second part of the tutorial I'm learning about how the passenger system works (and it's really interesting) before being turned loose with my own rail company to hopefully conquer... Europe?

Here's the full game description :
For the first time in railroad simulation, play as both the driver and company director!

Take the controls of your train…
…and travel across Europe with passengers and merchandise. In the Early Access version, drive through Germany, riding in the cab of several different locomotives. Each of these locomotives has its unique characteristics (power, braking, etc.) that you need to fully master to be as effective as possible. Take your passengers through astonishingly beautiful lands, including both town and country, forest and mountains.

Show your entrepreneurial spirit
You not only have to drive the trains, but you also have to grow your company by optimizing your Passenger and Freight activities. Choose a name, a logo, purchase locomotives, and hire drivers, giving them new contracts and exploring new tracks. You must also maintain your locomotives to prevent breakdowns and handle emergency repairs. You are free to accept or refuse contracts: make the right choices, earn money and develop your company!

A realistic and authentic simulation
Train Life involves demanding gameplay based on real-world behavior. You have to respect the rail signals and driving instructions, adapt for rail switches, and manage speed. Make sure you keep an eye on braking distance when you pull into the station and open and close the doors for your passengers. There are also unforeseen situations to manage, such as fallen trees, stalled cars, and trains rolling on your track.
The dynamic weather and day/night cycle mean you have to adapt the way you drive to avoid accidents and damage to the tracks.

Behold! While some may describe this section of the video as the link graveyard, I offer you treasures, delights and mischief. This section of the description rarely changes, except when it does (*).

Okay, that's a total lie, it's a link graveyard. It is however delivered with the kind of panache you have come to expect.

Why is any of this interesting? Because I try to make the nonsense that occurs behind each of these links worth your while. You can trust me. No reason is offered why you can trust me, just know that you can.

Let's do the commercial gubbins first. Anything you procure from the below will help out the channel, although I might spend some of the kickbacks I get on "projects". If any of these projects see the light of day, you'll be the first to know.

Would you like a personal video? Maybe you fancy sponsoring the outro, sending a birthday message, life tips or buying a video? Get yourself to the Wisio! https://www.wisio.com/Colonel_Failure

Perchance you would care for some merchandise? Only the very best will do for the Colonel's table! https://freshmerch.fm/collections/colonel-failure

If you'd like to support the channel and get some rather magical bonus videos, access to the lunacy of the Discord channel and more offers to play games than sticks should be shaken at. More importantly you'll be part of the last emergency service - The Fail Brigade. Zesty! Two ways to get with the program-
Option 1 (several different tiers available): Patreon - http://patreon.com/colonelfailure
Option 2 (one size-fits all): YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/colonelfailure/join

Last but not least, if you want to know my current "rig" (that's what we young people call it) consists of visit the ole Amazon storefront where I will tempt you with things, all of which I do not regret using my own personal pocket money on: https://www.amazon.co.uk/shop/colonelfailure

Let us move on from tales of commerce to things more fun-loving.

Do you want to follow a Twitter account that is actually cheerful? Not in the kind of way that offers life-affirming, inspirational text with a waterfall in the background, but in a jolly, acerbic kind of way? Follow me on Twitter. That's what I do. I almost never shill my latest video entertainment. http://twitter.com/cnlfailure

Do you want to know what videos are coming up each week? A few people do. I don't always get around to publishing the schedule, but when I do, I do it on Facebook. Not sure why I chose Facebook, but there you are. http://facebook.com/cnlfailure

Okay, you've made it. You clicked at least two links, now get your reward.

(*) - Today's secret: The ability to set your own passenger service that then slots into a timetable is a fantastic idea. How it works in practise remains to be seen, but it has a ton of potential.
