About this game

This simulation game was originally released by ARTDINK in 1986. While many fans today associate the series with urban development—laying tracks and transporting passengers or cargo to grow a city—the first TAKE THE A-TRAIN offers a slightly different experience. Your primary mission is to lay tracks to safely guide the Presidential Train to the final goal. In this game, you are given a limited timeframe of one year. You must manage your railway company and earn sufficient funds while advancing the Presidential Train toward its destination. A single accident, running out of funds due to reckless management, or exceeding the 365-day limit will result in a Game Over. The gameplay leans toward a puzzle-like challenge, requiring both strategic thinking and careful resource management. As a title that still commands high recognition today, why not take this opportunity to experience the true origin of the franchise? *This application does not have a scene select mode. *The main game and gallery screen (*Gallery) are in Japanese version. *Other menu screens and "How to play" screens are in English.
