Train Valley 2 News

Level of the Month - June 2022


Supplying local farmers' market and cannery with fresh produce while enjoying a well composed railway track building and scheduling problem. Working with longer recharge times of Pass Limiter stations shielding quest cities from easy shortcut usage along with that 65 000 TV2$ demolition job budget. A 16:00 train valley by @Gatebase.

We hope you enjoy your stay at the

A quaint and successfully LPT'ed adventure centered around agriculture with Myths And Rails food related resources and goods sporting lively decorated river banks and costly bridge projects to plan ahead for. Take your time and find a better approach during yet another playthrough-approved by CCW editorial stuff as very suitable for a fun train driving+puzzle solving session :)

Congratulations @Gatebase, your €30 Steam gift card is on its way!

Train Valley 2 community and developers want you to bring out your level editor skills and show us train driving complexity levels we never knew even existed. Build, create, compete. Having fun is a requirement.

Weekly Winner - July 4th


https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2826971158

A fine little puzzle to start off your Train valley run. 15:00, DNDATT, a Workers autotrain and terrain that both suggests routes to take and restricts one from taking the most obvious pathways.

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2828974189

Follow the existing railway tracks, upgrade your locomotives, reconnect Power and take local Canned Food industry to the next level :) 13:20, no wrong deliveries and no crashing trains.

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2827176900

Spend at least 400 000 TV2$, crash at least 40 trains and try making some Bats deliveries while you're at it. 30:00, try completing that on at x2 game speed :)

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2828210007

Six separate delivery quest locations and at least five Passenger Flow stations will test the limits of your preferred controller device :) The only bridge you can use-the only one that connects two parts of the river valley-will test your strategic thinking and scheduling skills too. 50:00.

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2826790363

Nothing like a contract somewhere at the North Pole in the middle of hot summer: below zero temperatures, no bridge building, ice fishing, trainspotting with polar bears, DNSAT and no need for AC :) 43:00.

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2829920921

We're building a first set of railway tracks for a newly invented steam locomotive, and to prove its financial viability we are to make it the most efficient and fast logistics network-which won't be too difficult since it is the first of its kind :) Earn at least 100 000 TV2$, DNSAT, 12:00.

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2829372814

Passenger Flow, track building, treacherous terrain and tight funding. DNRT, 19:00, spartan looks and many people counting on us to get around-on time.

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2826879290

Big city=big demands, and Train Valley 2 is almost never about things being easy :) The old oil pump jack will just not do-one of our objectives is to secure the oil platform and deliver oil via a tanker. Problem is the seaport is privately owned and has its own Customs station + this is a 21:00 DNSAT and DNDATT valley too :)

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2826693628

Yes, yes we can power Mars with trees and potatoes. And we will :) Why not use both resources since we've learned how to grow that right here planetside? No Customs stations and restricted engine upgrading are enough to even slow our progress down, but detailed and colourful surroundings probably will steal our attention and some seconds off the 17:00 timer :)

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2828219596

Build 40 bridges amidst constant terraforming of the Treasure Archipelago, your trains cruising just above the clouds, factories digging deep into levitating rock, unearthing magical artifacts, getting energy from the winds, steam powered airships moored and waiting for resupply. A charming design with adept execution, 13:00.

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2829289487

Unique approach to terraforming neatly decorated terrain-a valley divided into independent parts that require multitasking and are later to reunite and reinforce local industry, marvelous dynamics and a very enjoyable puzzle. 12:00, no destroying any fungi worth more than 2000 TV2$, LPT'ed.

Extending our cordial congratulations on winning the Level Of The Week award to @LittleBear! A €10 Steam gift card will be delivered by our contact ASAP.

Tell us about your TV2 workshop adventures and visit our Discord server for an upcoming LPT challenge. Until next week!

Weekly Winner - June 27th



An assortment of levels by @artemiyk20-simpler they look, better they play :) Introducing:

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2823554296

One bridge to rule them all with quests and industries mixed and distributed on both sides of this river valley. Plenty of space for our tracks and very generous 50:00 timers to let us concentrate on bringing at least 700 000 TV2$ in.

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2823919520

Constant stream of tourist filled Passenger Flow autotrains keeps railway schedules of this sakura grove valley busy and our job is to find some extra time to deliver and process and ship all that gold and gold related products :) 28:00, DNSAT and DNDATT.

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2823539150

Use the power of a nuclear power plant to set up car production. Use skilled train driving to deliver fuel for the plant and set up parts and resources deliveries for the automotive industries-after you invest money you've previously earned to construct those :) DNDATT, 36:00.

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2825163013

Another valley waiting for investment, logistical upgrade and industrial prosperity. Mind the ruined railway track and start building industries and destroying 25 000 TV2$ worth of objects ASAP-we only have 35:00 on the timer :)

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2823620890
and
https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2823767014

We're contracted to build a railway network on rapidly melting ice. In 13:00 or 16:00, while trying to locate and destroy object(s?) worth 40 000 TV2$ and not to crash a single train. Watch out for terraforming events and work around the Customs station. A refreshing challenge(s? :)

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2823998424

A robust transportation infrastructure is missing around your freshly established trade hub and local work force is relying on shoddy outposts? Call 123-456-TV2 and schedule a complete overhaul of your logistics today :) In 22:00 (or less), with just 3 bridges (or less) and almost no additional tunnels your delivery and production speeds will increase, waiting times and wasted Power units count will go down and your bank account balance will stop fitting inside one bank :)

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2824741160

Canned Food and Fish shipments seem like a reasonable price to postpone the terrible monster's arrival. Local silicon valley Microchip and Computer factories will need our attention as well, along with the Engineers autotrain and a One Way Station. 12:00, build 4 or more bridges, DNRT.

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2825812761
and
https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2823739311

This week's LPT levels duo is packed with bus related adventures. Producing new Buses, recycling old Buses, establishing supply chains for your Bus factories, delivering Buses-the list goes on :) Pick your flavour of a Bus adventure-a 11:00 DNSAT complex landscape challenge by @petronille_marie or a 17:00 terraforming puzzle with no train crashes by @LittleBear and an excellent gameplay with some fine train driving you will get.

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2825331204

An impressive multilevel railway maze with decorations seamlessly fused with terrain that still manages to offer some clues as to how your next junction might look like and train driving that requires constant attention. Do not build more than 13 bridges (consider that a hint :), 28:00.

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2826050883

A level hand crafted to make us look for a better path to a certain destination only to find one suitable for a completely different direction :) Many track building decisions to make, even more rock formations to remove, elevated replayability levels, DNRT and 23:00.

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2826416335

Two sets of Hyperloop tunnels is the only connection there is for different parts of today's winner's train valley. Before we progress enough to complete certain 12-unit delivery quests and trigger terraforming, we'll have to keep these choke points in mind when building rails and scheduling trains. Many industries to connect, a complex supply chain to maintain and a 22:00 timer, no train crashing, no wrong deliveries policy to adhere to.

Extending our cordial congratulations on winning the Level Of The Week award to @LittleBear! A €10 Steam gift card will be delivered by our contact ASAP.

Tell us about your TV2 workshop adventures and visit our Discord server for an upcoming LPT challenge. Until next week!
