Achtergrond verhaal

Het is begin jaren 2000 in Derail Valley, een land dat herstelt van een zware economische crisis.

Je begint je carrière als machinist bij Derail Valley Railworks and Transportation (kortweg DVRT), een spoorwegmaatschappij die verschillende steden, industrieën en militaire bases in de vallei met elkaar verbindt via een uitgebreid spoorwegnetwerk .

Despite the country's assets being old and worn out, they are still plentiful and sufficient for a positive comeback, albeit with some hard work.

As a DVRT employee, you are provided with the introductory tutorial , station offices , licenses , motorized rail vehicles , cars , service points , loading bays , insurance and of course the railway infrastructure . The company generates delivery orders , which you are tasked to complete. Conveniently, DVRT also tracks fees for you.

Being big on rail transport, the country of Derail Valley used to have a railway museum , too. Once a crowded gallery of beautiful demonstrator locomotives , it is now an abandoned ruin, listed for sale to private individuals , along with its lost fleet.

Out there in the valley there are also some hidden private vehicle garages to discover. Keys to unlock them can be bought in shops .

Other than your job, you also have a modest house in the countryside.
