ABOUT THIS PODCAST 🔗
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.

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’?
