Locals like no other

Operating local trains is not only possible, but can be done in so many places on the route. Because of the vastness of the route and it's rail network, locals can be operated at various starting and end points creating a much more travelled feeling. Terminals are set in locations allowing for operating divisions to be far enough and unique to prevent boredom.

commute short or long

Commuter operations on CR8 are a whole different world! Short commutes and long commutes are easily done with main hubs placed strategically on the route. If you simply want to run a short commute that's less than 50 miles, it is easily done. It's a world of trains at your fingertips!

Want to do the long haul commute for the entire route? That's easy to do too!

strategy industries

Simplicity is the goal with CR8, but because of the vastness of the route, we have infused some areas that when switched, take some thought. Users will enjoy having to put some extra time and care when switching some of the hundreds of industries on the route that aren't the simple in and out move. 

While many industries are simple to work, there are some that take some planning.

Freight all around

No simple A to B. The route's vastness and various destinations allow for a full on through freight experience. With various subdivisions , freight trains don't need to run just one way, they can run two... or three... or four... or five! 

Any freight train is a welcome operation!
