About Chicago Train - Idle Transport Tycoon

Chicago Train is a story about the railways in Chicago. Created by railway enthusiasts, it gives all train fans the opportunity to fulfil their greatest dreams. In this Tycoon, you’ll be collecting legendary engines, carrying passengers in the centre of Chicago, and setting up long-distance express trains to the farthest corners of the United States.

Have you heard of the largest railroad line METRA? Of course, you have. It’s a real treat for fans of the railway in Chicago. You’ll be able to manage it in our game! Powerful diesel engines, high-voltage power lines, power plants waiting for coal and foreheads of engine drivers covered in sweat are the essence of Chicago Train.

Manage your transport tasks cautiously, count raw materials and collect engines to become the most important player in Chicago.
