    Well the longer a job has to go the more you get for it, in general. Jobs with a long distance requires less management as well. On the other hand, if you spend a lot of time managing it I can see short routes being pretty effective as well.

    My Lisbon <-> New York route is pretty profitable, but it also cost a lot to set up, building and claiming it is pretty darn expensive.

    Thanks to today's rate being posted early I cashed out 400 or so Bux. I'm already back upto 500+ Bux and have over 146,000 gold. No IAP or hacking. Just grinding 9 railroads.

    Other stats, I've not opened a crate since yesterday and have 53 regular and 4 special crates. Also traveled nearly 70,000 miles and delivered nearly 7000 cars. Oh and I'm sitting at level 11.

    I'm tempted to expand into the USA. But I'm enjoying just Europe And the game is already a micromanagement grinding nightmare. I think expanding may make me want to give up. Still,
    I want to expand.

    WOAH major bug alert!

    When I have a bunch of bux cars rolling around and I quit the game (my 3GS just kills the app when I open the lightest of apps), when I return to the game an I'm supposed to have earned 17 bux, I only got 7 bux, the other 10 vanished.

    And it's not the only time this happened. Can anyone relate to that?

    EDIT: I had like 50 bux, got back in the game and levelled up, earned 30 bux in the process but check this: I end up with 32 bux total...
    I'm so desperate...

    I guess once you've expanded, you'll have to cut a lot of the European micromanaging.

    I'm not there yet, just opened Asia, but the rest of the map looks gigantic compared to our small and cosy steamer ready European operations :)

    There's a reason why you don't choose where you start! You need faster and more fuel heavy trains elsewhere.
    Compared to PP, they've cut almost all of the less than 2.5 million inhabitants agglomerations, leaving only a few clusters of intertwined cities separated by huge chunks of almost empty areas :)

    Exxxxxaccctllly. This is my most profitable line at the moment with Paris having a healthy 95 layover capacity to distribute everything throughout Europe, half of which is Reykjavik and Glasgow. Toying with the idea of opening up N.A. next, profits should pay off the line after 5 or so hours of play I figured.
    I have a train for it and Europe is set up perfectly (I think) for receiving / sending transatlantic cars. It's also what I did in Pocket Planes. For some reason, Asia just doesn't appeal to me, it seems boring. Interested to see what the Oceania line layout looks like - I wouldn't mind a 'second Europe' to be honest!

    No need to reboot - just force close the app?

    Ahhhhh, WELCOME FAYE!!! :) Well done on finally managing the software upgrades! My one tip for early levels would be to take care with the spending of coins, they're a precious commodity in this game. Hoard bux like there's no tomorrow too, I even prioritize them over crate jobs - soon enough you'll have a zillion crates to open and nowhere near enough bux, plus bux exchanges can come in handy if you're low on coins or just pushing the expansion. Also stick to the steamers and add fuel cars as and when you do open up crates - don't add faster engines until you have fuel cars for those two - you'll run out of fuel on the fast trains and that'll hold up your steamers (especially if you've added steamer fuel cars) and the whole network becomes bogged. As for station upgrades, absolutely worth it - Paris > Milan > Munich are my top three upgraded stations, but these are just things I found useful. Levels 5-7 seemed a strain to me but it picked up again. Alllll depends how you play of course, these tips may be rubbish :p

    And no, it's not your imagination regarding the app. It is less responsive!

    So, welcome to Pocket Trains!

    Perhaps this is the end of Scorpion008! Maybe Nimblebit have caught up with him! :rolleyes:

    I'd be very grateful for anything you can spare for the Daylight or Century Limited steamers, please. Haven't got a complete one of either yet. Thanks in advance.

    I wish NimbleBit would allow us to name lines instead of just trains. I'd love to recreate some of the classic train lines of the past like the Orient Express.

    I'm sorry to ask again but does anybody have a regional express fuel car parts? I'd prefer a full set but parts are okay too!

    My code is 904W

    I'd be happy to give you some vanilla, emerald or dragon breath parts. Thanks in advance!
