Puzzle RailRoad In Puzzle RailRoad, your job is to set track pieces so, that the train can drive from the start train station (lower left corner) to the end train station (upper right corner), underway you must take all workers with you. If you reach the end train station without all workers, you have lost. The same goes when your train derails.

The game screen consists of a 5x10 block field, where the starting and ending track (each side) is fixed. The rest is rotatable and movable.

Each block consists of one of the following things: line track, curve, cross-track, two interlocked curves, tunnel, empty field, or missing block (needed for moving tracks to another position).

Some fields have signals, where the trains stops a short time, others have workers on them and others have coal on them (since you drive a steam engine train, it's critical to have enough coal).

The clue on the game is, that you must plan and lay the tracks "on the fly", because as soon as you start the level, the train begins to drive. [source:mobygames]
