your posts always make me want to play openttd. i don't have the space for real model trains (besides all my 40k takes up too much space as it is) but making little digital train worlds is so nice. thank you for posting :>
I always aim to inspire, and Open TTD is a great outlet for that.
You might also want to try Railroader, which teaches you how to run a railroad both from a business and a physical sense. Everything from uncoupling cars to business management. https://store.steampowered.com/app/1683150/Railroader/
