Pocket Trains: Status Update 2

My map in Pocket Trains as of November 12, 2025.

It's been two weeks since my last post about Pocket Trains, retroactively Status Update 1 I guess, and so here is the current state of my network now! A lot has happened these two weeks, so maybe next update will be a week from now instead.

I am currently in level 19, and my railroad network has doubled from last time, now having 14 lines! I've expanded slightly further into Asia, fully gone into Africa, going through a good part of North America, and touching a little bit of South America, which I hope to expand further into very soon.

I've replaced some of my trains with better ones! Specifically I now have the full range of Zephyrs, and am starting to get the Freighters!

I replaced my Snowball (Helsinki—Bangalore) with an Exabyte Zephyr, moved the Peppermint Steamer to the Continental Cruiser and expanded it to Ürümqi, expanded the Northern Euro to Yakutsk and replaced it with a San Juan Standard, and changed my Tunnel Traveler to end in Dublin instead of Glasgow and changed it to a special Carbon Steamer!

As for my new lines, they are:

  • African Atlantic (Casablanca—Cape Town) with a Rio Grande Standard
  • Madgascar (Cape Town—Cairo) with a Pecos Standard
  • Avalanche (Novosibirsk to Bangalore) with a National Express, a sort of sister route to Snowball
  • Aurora Borealis (London—Goose Bay) with another Pumpkin Steamer I got for Halloween
  • Greater Atlantia (Madrid—San Francisco) with a special Dekotora
  • Greater Pacifica (Vancouver—Bogotá) with a Global Express
  • And lastly, Strawberry Steamer (Goose Bay—Atlanta) with a Cherry Steamer, which I named in tribute to an old habit I had with the game where I named all the lines after fruits. It felt fitting!

As for my plans for future lines, I wanna continue expanding into South America. I have an idea for a line from Dakar to Fortaleza to Porto Alegre, which I might even link up to Cape Town, and which I am planning to build with a Petabyte Zephyr I already have ready! I just need to save up a bit more coins.

After that I also plan on getting a better train for the Greater Pacifica line and keep expanding it south, and also expanding eastward to Asia, and maybe even down to Oceania!

That's about it for this status update! It's basically been expanding further from what I have. Although this probably isn't the optimal way to play the game and get the most money, this is absolutely how I have the most fun playing, with expanding the world map, finding and trading new trains, and just making a cool interconnected world!
