Description
Sudoku.... with Freight Trains!

An “approachable” puzzle type timetable map.

Each of the “boxes” (stations) 1 to 9 must be filled with exactly 1 train from each of the stations 1 to 9!

Trains should not be reversed at other stations or mid trip…they have a loco at only one end and won’t like that! You have 90 minutes (the sum total of two Sudoku boxes). ...But this is not about time, its managing conflicting movements by using the various available routings cleverly.
Sometimes having a lot of junctions just doesn’t make it any easier to get to your destination!
A fair time allowance for some trips means some trains can take a scenic route, but not all!
Not a hard map, but good practice for track scanning!

Tip: Tracks towards the centre and top of the map are generally slower than those on the perimeter or lower down.
A 100% score is readily achievable and with different ways to get to it.
Enjoy! (and please leave a thumbs up if you do!)

Good work PietLu, especially for a first attempt! :D (It taxes you a bit harder if you don't reverse trains, but there are a few ways to complete it even then!)

98% at first try without save scrum or resetting, but with reversing some trains.
Awesome map - must have been hard to create that timetable x)

SteR. Thank you for your feedback, I have modified the screenshots to the game default, track map layout, no trains and no colours accordingly.

Do you really need to add screenshots with the color mod active to your level thumbnails? It just makes the already cluttered and hard-to-follow track layouts harder to look at by adding even more visual clutter/distractions. Plus, the mod isn't available on Steam - it's only on the community discord.
Personally, I would stick to the vanilla screenshots that can be made in the editor. This just looks way too messy.
