Railroad Empire

In 1992, Maxis published A-Train, a railroad management simulation by Artdink, a developer of some renown in Japan but virtually unknown anywhere else. A-Train was the third episode in Artdink’s Take the A-Train series, which dates back to 1986. An earlier installment of the series had been internationally published three years prior to Maxis’ A-Train by Seika Corp., under the name of Railroad Empire, with little to no public recognition.
