I'm editing this review since I've sunk a lot of time into the game at this point.
I haven't felt "addicted" to a game like this in over a decade. The concept is tons of fun, and it's beyond satisfying recreating and even improving real-life train lines.
However, a major issue with this game's playability is its lack of documentation. Seriously, the interface and menus are extensive to a fault. Some poor decision making was at play releasing this product before documentation with it (the links on the associated "wiki" are half-baked at best, or take you to pages that don't exist at worst). It has its (pretty hair-pulling) moments because of this.
It took me eons to figure out how everything worked by trial-and-error, and if this weren't the case, I wouldn't be leaving a negative review. I probably would leave a positive one otherwise as there's nothing else quite like it.
