  • Heisler
  • Climax

Watch your Budget

Hints

In Railroads Online, you can do many actions like build water towers and chop down trees. Each time you do want these actions, it costs you money. For example, when you cut down a tree, it costs $2. 

Unfortunately, this can easily be missed, and you can find yourself stuck without the finances to continue developing your station. Best keep to keep an eye on your finances and spend wisely. 

Focus on the development of your railroad instead of building unnecessary water towers and log cabins.  

Know your Train

Hints

Once you have gotten a little further in the game, you would have acquired a few more trains. Each train has its pros and cons. Knowing these would help you know what train to use for different jobs.

For example, the Porter is a small-sized train with low water and fuel reserves. It also uses a mechanical brake making it less reliable than your locomotives with air brakes. It would be best to use the train for small distance travel. 

The Climax is, however, much bigger and stronger and can be used on routes with large grades. The Climax is, unfortunately, very slow. So if you are looking for a train to pull a heavy load over a long distance, this would be your choice. 

If you were looking to take a train through tight corners over a short distance and fast, then the porter is your choice. This is just an example, there are other trains to choose from.
