Edit: i added links to the games for those who want to check them out, I probably should've done this when I uploaded the video lol, so yeah enjoy guys
I honestly really like parousing the most forgotten/unpopular dead train games I can find. There's an odd tranquility to a lot of them, given you're usually the only one there. Trying to get the glitchy machinery to work properly gives a similar feeling to trying to get a real abandoned railway working again. Also means no trolls so thats always nice.
its such a odd feeling, being in a game which once used to be filled with life and functionality now reduced to a few semi functional locomotives and all the life gone, its oddly depressing knowing that there used to be life but its replaced with quietness
Fun fact: WIP Railway is back and better than ever! The engines now use the Ro-Scale DCC system which allows for them to work again. Keep in mind that a lot of things are still pretty glitchy, but at least it works again!
6:06 This right here. This game means everything. I was playing this on a night during winter one year, and my dad came in to announce that we had a snow day tommorrow. As he said it, I drove through the tunnel and it activated this cheery winter music. Absolutely perfect.
must've been a fantastic mood setter lol, I always find snowy areas in older styled games so calming for some reason its quite nice to drive through them
Watching the taleland railway 2 segment brought back memories. I used to love bullying kids in the harbour by attaching the cranes to their engines and hoisting them up in the air
Anyone remember these nostalgic ones? A basement full of model trains, The Arctic Central, The flying trains series, Railroad Heaven, Narrow Gauge Line by PendennisC, Mesh Trenes, Solway 1985, Primrose Narrow Gauge, Misford Valley Line, The Attic 2, Golden Days, and Simon Weyerhaauser Narrow Gauge Railroad?
5:44 what actually happened to Reaper? I remember a few years back collaborating on his sugar bois game as i was modelling a freelance diesel mechanical switcher, i progressed to the poimt of importing it into Roblox Studio from Blender. Now his discord server is dead with no activity
Wip railway is such a nostalgic classic. I used to play it everyday. Edison left the game somewhat playable.. the trains are still broken.. but can be used by the controller to move.
yeah, tbh edison couldn't really do much about fixing it as his PC was dying as it and he didn't know how to fix the engines so he moved onto the DCC system instead.
WIP Railway used to be one of my favourites. Personally, I think the poor performance is currently caused by too many trains spawned slowing the physics. Some potential fixes include: replacing spawners with ones that have the train not spawned by default, modifying the drive system to set network ownership to the driver, streamingEnabled, etc. I don't think that would fix all the trains, since I remember some of the steam engines running badly before everything broke. Another game I really missed was GrandContinentalRailways. The old map was very compact and dense, with lots of scenery everywhere. All the trains being in a tighter loop would make it easier to rp as a passenger. When they upgraded to the new, larger map, I stopped playing, since it took longer to get anywhere and the map felt too empty. I don’t know how it's doing now tho as I haven't played recently.
i think some interesting "somewhat dead" games you can add in a possible part 2 would be Bloxville, Cliffside Railway and Chaningford and Isberch. they are REALLY REALLY well modelled games and I only say somewhat dead because some of them see very small player groups, other than that im pretty sure they have died out. most players going to Wedgeford Abbey.
i've seen that bloxville is more of a RP that has a dedicated group of players who join once in awhile, i was playing a server once and like 10 people including the owner joined and started roleplaying, its not fully dead
There used to be a train game in 2018 where you couldn’t drive trains, but a bot drove it, the stations were all doorways to different games such as ant simulator and thus fish game, I remember playing it back then, it might just be lost roblox media now
alot of these older games seem to become lost media, asking around in some discord servers seem to confirm this when people tell me it used to exist but is now gone which is pretty sad
Usey, if you ever do a part 2 then I’ve got a dead narrow gauge roblox game to suggest and I used to play this game myself and that game is called “Mearoffean Slate Quarry Railway” (P.s I spelled Mearoffean wrong, I don’t think it’s spelled like that. But hey.) So yeah
It's almost dead because trolls and almost all the original people are gone and just in general not good updates and hardly any updates that people like
As someone who has Mostly Played Older Roblox Games in my time. (since when i joined i mostly Played the Older games back in 2017 and 2018 because i am a older Player) i actually enjoyed playing those Games, Including 4.8 Railway and NGH, and The WIP railway. Im actually pretty sad that they didnt Get updated in so long and Roblox being stupid for The Physics Updates and sound Update. But Hey atleast Wip Railway is Getting fixed right guys? Speaking of old Roblox games tho the Older Version of GCR 2018 actually has a legacy Edition, I recommend you lot search it up
i consider 2.1 and 2 to be completely different games purely due to the fact that 2.1 is much better looking that 2 and it changed some stuff up from 2
Exactly, I miss Wip Railway dearly as it was the second game I ever played on Roblox in 2017 with Work at a Pizza Place being the first Narrow Gauge Hills was also a fun experience but good god the empty servers give me bad vibes
i've heard of that one, may have played it but i can't seem to locate it anymore, if you can provide a link to it i'll be happy to include it in my next dead roblox ep whenever that comes out

i've heard of the attic and solway but none of the rest, i will certainly be checking them out
RAILROAD HEAVEN IS A FRIGGIN CLASSIC
I remember playing NGH 1 with some friends once, We would always play it until NGH 2 came out and then we just forgot about it.
lol, must've been fun back then
5:44 what actually happened to Reaper? I remember a few years back collaborating on his sugar bois game as i was modelling a freelance diesel mechanical switcher, i progressed to the poimt of importing it into Roblox Studio from Blender. Now his discord server is dead with no activity
he's still around, dunno which discord server you're talking about but he's very active in other servers
Narrow Gauge Hills 2 has been recently reuploaded on the NGH group. Some things are still broken but you can still play it
very nice sad that many of the games wont work again but the wip railway news is cool
indeed
Wip railway is such a nostalgic classic.
I used to play it everyday.

Grand Continental Railways has the 0.9 version avabile along with the 1.1 and current version

very much so

Its called "Train Simulator" search it up, its by the same devs of Ant Sim.@@niklasmolin3195

i've actually played that game, completely forgot to add it to the list lol but it'll def be on a part 2
Cool
stanwolf lost access to his account tbw@@niklasmolin3195
The original narrow gauge hills tickles braincells i never even knew i had.
Most of the train games i used to play are now dead, well good things must come to an end
yep, always sad to see a good game die
Pls make a part 2 and if you do make a part 2 please include railroads by thomasawl
hmm i'll have to check it out, i don't think railroads is actually dead but i might be wrong tho lol
It's almost dead because trolls and almost all the original people are gone and just in general not good updates and hardly any updates that people like
NGH 2 still exist, and for some reason most of the engines still work.
i discovered this recently from someone on the SNR server, i had no idea it existed before i made the script
As of now, taleland 2 is one of the most famous train games out there
true lol

i did check out the GCR and i'll most likely put it in my next video if it happens
Um Taleland Railways 2 is now 2.1 so it's technically still alive
i consider 2.1 and 2 to be completely different games purely due to the fact that 2.1 is much better looking that 2 and it changed some stuff up from 2
@@niklasmolin3195 Ah gotcha because they just look very similar due to the track layout and locations and locomotives.
Good ending: wip railway updated now
can you talk about the chettensford quarry beta IT SOOOOOOO GOOOD
i could do a separate video on it if enough of you guys want me too
damn. i miss W.I.P railways.

You should include retro western in part 2
i'll consider it
It would be pleasant to see a part 2
seems you guys want more, expect a part 2 then
