Dear Community,

Farmers, grab your straw hats: It is now time to expand our wheat industry. The Cattle Update is now available!

In this update you will find some new and exciting additions to Railroads Online. We will keep this short and sweet so you can get into the patch notes. If you want to have a great overview, we recommend to check out our latest devlog where we go through all new content in much detail:

Say hello to the cattle!



A new industry is here, and it certainly adds another layer of complexity! To make sure you know how it all works, we've prepared a handy little graphic:



Other than that, we fixed a lot of bugs, introduce some new locomotives and cars, provide some cute little decoration, among much more things! Check out the full patch notes below!

One last note, I know you guys were anticipating snow on Pine Valley and parts of Lake Valley. For this year we decided to not add snow. However, you will still get some snow in a future bigger update... stay tuned for that in the coming months!

Patch notes for The Cattle Update

    • Both Cooke 2-6-0’s go 25mph
  • Updated Reverser - Added Cut Off Simulation
    • At 100% reverser you are compromising max speed for max tractive effort
    • The closer to center you get with the reverser the faster you will go
    • However when going at max speed with the reverser towards the center you will compromise tractive effort.
    • In short, full reverser equals max pulling power, anything less than full reverser equals speed.
