The Train Rush

The Train Rush began life as a short form podcast in which the hosts discussed a single ‘train game’ (primarily, but not exclusively, from the 18XX family) they had played in the preceding fortnight. Since 2020, The Train Rush offers a thoughtful exploration of salient titles or topics within the genre of train games, with episodes released when the hosts have something to say and lasting as long as it takes them to say it. Rich descriptions, zen reflections and meandering musings often feature. Empirical ratings (mostly) do not.

In another installment of what some critics have hailed as "a [...] podcast", The Train Rush presents: 9 Lives

    S02E10 - An Imitation of Life - What Price Originality?

    Once again, Joe finds himself in a pique of rage, having identified Craig’s plagiarised contributions towards The Train Rush’s topic-based episode on ‘the value of originality’? Why must his work follow him home? WHY can’t his co-host be more mature than the juveniles under his charge? He slowly reaches into the West most drawer of his home-office desk for the familiar, dull weight of his blood-splattered souvenir railroad spike thinking, “this will be the last time…” Chicago Express/American Rails/Luzon Rails/A bloody murder may feature.
