== Overall ==
Gameplay of Train Go X-Treme! Railway Simulator revolves around building a Real-Scale styled railway layout. Like the A-Train games starting from A-Train 6, the layout is based on squares, and can be expanded. The standard layout is 1 Giga-Square which is 100.000.000 squares large (10.000 squares long and 10.000 squares wide), and the layout is limited to 100 Giga-Squares large, as in 10 Giga-Squares Long and 10 Giga-Squares Wide, thus having a Gigantic Layout of 100.000 x 100.000 squares large, which is essentially near the infinity for a limited space.
Visuals of the game are an upgrade from previous titles like Monois' original Train Go! Railway Simulator and Artdink's A-Train 6 (Which has the most advanced graphics in terms of the trains). For example: Railway tracks in general have VISIBLE Overhead wires. In specific details with overhead wires, Curved tracks now have Overhead Catenary poles like the straight tracks, and when the tracks are Double/Triple/Quadruple lanes, the Catenary poles became joint Gantries. Railway signals have also been added in terms of visuals and with their proper functions.
== Trains ==
Train Go X-Treme! Railway Simulator's trains are different from the predecessors, they are an improvement of the A-Train 6 designs. Because the original Train Go! and future A-Train titles' electric trains lacked pantographs and are visually downgraded, it gave the wrong impression that the electric trains are actually diesels or Third-Rail electric or Battery electric from a visual standpoint. As a solution, the trains are given their pantographs back, and to make them even more looking better, they now have simple yet highly detailed interiors, complete with indoor lights.
In addition, the player can FINALLY use a new feature: On-Train Passenger view, where while riding a train, the camera can be inside the passenger coaches. This also works for Driver's Cabs too, without making a train car invisible which is a wrong type of camera POV in a train. In A-Train 6, the average longest train is 5 cars long, which is 13 squares long. In this game, the trains have an increased length limit of 10 cars long, equivalent to 26 squares long. To accommodate this, the train stations are also extended from 13 squares long to a double length of 26 squares long. However, there are a RARE amount of certain trains that have a limited length under 10 cars long, which can lead to unusually unrealistic consists but it's a game so whatever LOL.
A returning feature from A-Train 6 is the fact that the trains are categorized into 5 types of different top speeds. The slowest train speed (Which is usually designated for countryside trains) is 80 km/h, the slow speed (Which is usually designated for local commuter trains) is 100 km/h, the medium speed (Which is usually designated for rapid commuter trains) is 125 km/h, the high speed (Which is usually designated for limited express trains) is 170 km/h, and the highest speed (Which is usually designated for high speed rail trains) is 330 km/h.
