Stuck on a puzzle? There are over 1.2 MILLION player submitted solutions at http://trainyard.ca/solutions

Trainyard Express is a puzzle solving game unlike any that you've ever played. It's easy to learn but very tough to master. Your job is simple: get each train to a goal station. Red trains go to red stations, blue trains go to blue stations, etc. You control the trains by drawing track for them to follow. There isn't a time limit or even a score; the only thing you need to do is figure out a solution for each puzzle.

The first few puzzles are almost too easy, but as the difficulty increases you'll be thankful that you were able to practice the fundamentals of drawing track. As the game progresses, you'll have to use basic colour theory to combine trains of different colours, use timing to merge, and use every inch of your brain in your quest to beat the game.

Known issues (minor):

- If some provinces can't be unlocked even after you've solved all the available puzzles, that's a bug: Go to options, switch to player 2 then back to player 1 to fix it.

- Sometimes, the sounds stop working. Close the app using the multitasking bar to get sounds back.

Is this ever going to be updated
Cornelius J. Commode

I had this on my old phone and want to continue playing but it’s no longer available due to an update needing performed. Come on, guys!


IOS 11
???????????????????????

I played trainyard on my moms iPad when I was very little like kindergarten little. I played the trainyard game and loved it. When I was older I bought trainyard express on my mini iPad. One day my iPad was on the couch and I had to use the restroom, I come back and my brother accidentally knocked it off the couch. It cracked and didn’t work as well. But I still could do trainyard express. One day it stops working for good. This past X-Mas I got a iPad on the IOS 11 and tried to get the game via iCloud, but it says it is not compatible. I’m very sad as I loved this game as it reminds me of when life was easy and calming. If this game is made to be compatible for IOS 11 I would be very happy. This is a great game and I rate it 5 stars if I had to do it on a ten point scale I would mark it at 9.97/10.00 for entertainment and fun. I also think it will be good for little kids who play on their parents devices since it encourages problem solving and mixing colors. And for kids who love trains like I did when I was little and I still like trains today. I personally think this game is one of the best games I’ve ever played.


Fun

Amazing game

Please can you update it to IOS 11? I loved playing this game on my old iPod, but now that that’s gone I can’t play it.


iOS 12

When can we expect an updated version for the latest iOS? Thank you!


Nice

The game is functional and had that time wasting capabilities that they all do. The puzzles are pleasantly engaging in the later levels, and I really wanted to give this 5 stars, but can not due to a (what I see as) a severe functionality but. When you get up to the later levels there is a glitch where after you finish a puzzle you cannot click ANY buttons. You have to restart the game and go back to the level selection screen to go to the next level. It really ruins my experience, and would love to see it fixed.


Was a great game

This was a great game. It’s a shame it no longer works with newer iOS. Please update it.


iOS 11

Please, please put this game compatible for iOS 11. This was a game part of my childhood, and I really wanna play it again, so please put it compatible for iOS 11!


IOS 11?
DarkJMKnight

I'm waiting to upgrade to iOS 11 until this comes out. :-) I've not purchased it yet, but will the moment it's available!
