Description

Last Train to Wensleydale is a railway themed game where you play as the director of a small railway company, trying to make a profit by building track and moving goods in the Yorkshire Dales. The game is set in a challenging terrain, where you need to navigate through valleys and overcome opposition from local residents who don't want railways built on their land. You'll need to acquire influence in government to arrange compulsory purchase orders and buy favors from the necessary committees to deal with these obstacles. As you build your railway line, you'll need to pick up and deliver stone, cheese, and passengers, while also managing your resources and negotiating with other train companies to acquire second-hand engines and rolling stock. The goal is to make a profit before offloading your route to a major train company, all while competing with other players to be the most successful railway company in the Dales.
