The Little Railway

Every parcel has a place. Find a rhythm for the little trains.

Play The Little Railway

How to play

  • Read each train's letter and send it to the matching station: Workshop A, Garden B, Store C, or Lodge D.
  • Tap a brass switch to choose its next track. Trains follow the setting when they reach the junction; watch the next departures to plan ahead.
  • Complete the timetable with fewer than three wrong deliveries. Trains wait safely behind one another. Harder timetables bring a busier village.

Controls

Tap switches 1, 2, and 3 to change their tracks. The number keys work too.

Use Pause, P, or Escape to rest. Opening the field guide, switching tabs, or closing a cabinet pauses the game. Sound and moving details follow your saved village settings.

Scores and saved progress

Personal records, unlocked routes, unfinished rounds, and your finished garden are saved in this browser. Reopening an active round restores it paused. Clearing site data removes the save; progress does not sync between devices.

A stamp for your collection

Earn bronze, silver, and gold versions of the stationmaster stamp at 400, 850, 1400 points. Your stamps appear in the arcade collection and your discovery journal. They are optional keepsakes; The Sleeping Star never requires an arcade score.
