Description

Trains are here! With the Martian Express pack by modders Lucian and Sylvain, you’ll finally be able to move your colonists and resources between stations facilitating access to far away domes and remote resource deposits. Other outside manned buildings will also be buildable near stations without needing a dome.

Key features

Welcome commuters! - Build your stations anywhere on the map and help your colonists get to work and back. Click on the info panel to see their reason for traveling and make sure that everyone gets their seat. otherwise, they’ll have to wait for the next train (and be frustrated, nobody likes to miss the train).

New tracks - Click and drag to create tracks that connect your stations. Tracks will be elevated allowing your rovers and drones to pass underneath together with power cables, while pipes can cross over them.

Same train, different cargo - Traveling on the red planet has never been safer (and efficient!). Trains will have 2 wagons to transport colonists and resources at the same time. Don't worry: they'll travel on the same track with no risk of collision. Build your trains in the stations, assign them to the connected tracks and watch them go.

I didn't believe the reviews. I mean how could it be that bad? It is. Mods make it better, but don't fix it. It's not worth it. It's sad as it had so much potential.

I didn't believe the negative reviews and wanted to roll the dice. Everyone was right. There's no much more potential for this than just a resource sink to move something from point A to point B.

Definitely listen to the negative reviews for this one - I picked it up hoping that my general love of trains would be enough to make this work, but unfortunately this DLC just has no place in the game! The station

Don't buy this. I really love logistics and trains and I did my best to like this but it didn't work... It's just broken. It only has 1 purpose that actually works. Allowing people to work on a deposit that's beyond the

absolutely terrible DLC. totally unusable and unplayable. it is sold under the concept of being able to use it in the time before you get the shuttle researched however you have to make the map perfect before you can

Paradox Interactive appears to believe that trains can't go up and down slopes?!?!?!? Have they ever seen trains in the real world? They up up and down slopes all the time!
