A first-person simulation puzzle about safely routing trains through a 1950s railway signal box.

Landing page captured for the 2026-09-09 issue.

Field notes

The browser demonstration models a route through Harrowdale Junction as a sequence of lever pulls and bell exchanges rather than a conventional train-driving interface. The visible frame has eight levers, while the rule book describes six required steps from accepting the train to receiving the 2-1 train-out-of-section signal. The page identifies the project as a 20–40 minute, single-player PC experience, with Box One still in development and controller support not yet confirmed.
