This really got me engaged. High score of 21139 so far.
The track you created is awesome!
Once the trains get really large, the difficulty ramps up a lot!
Great job, and thanks a lot for the game, will try more later :smile:
This was AWESOME!
This is a very well executed game! :grin: :thumbsup:
But about the game : it's simple and yet so efficient ! Like, only one click, few little zone to click but a really trick to keep in mind every movement and to manage and anticipate the consequence of a click. It's simple but super efficient ! + the speed, the pace and the music really give an "intensity" feeling on that game !
The only problem I encountered was that sometimes one train would head directly after another. In that case you can't separate them cause you can't click the junction while one train is over it. In this case you will just have to avoid the front trains cargo for the rest of the game. 
What I thought of while playing was that maybe you could switch the junction while one train is over, for it to switch when there is an empty space.
Anyways, great game that I loved playing!

:grimacing: And then switched a junction at the wrong moment... :sweat_smile:
Would be nice to play on a tablet!
