Once you start the game, the timer will start ticking away.
Start placing tracks for the train to follow. If the train
can not move anymore, then it will crash and the game is over.
The train will start moving when the timer hits 0 and the train's
whistle sounds. The train needs to reach the Finish track
(it's the red piece with an F on it) and travel the required
distance to get to the next level.
How to Play
Press the start button to start the game. Click on an empty tile to place
the next piece of track. If you make a mistake, you can replace that track with
a new one, however it will come at a cost and you will not be able to place another track
for a moment and deducted 10 points. Press the "Choo Choo!" button when you are finished
with your track to score extra points.

Objective:
All aboard! The train will be departing in a few seconds, but the track has not been
completed yet! You must help the engineer by placing the tracks so the
train can make it to its destination. Rack up extra points by completing
tasks, such as picking up frieght and delivering it, as well as reaching
the final station. Be careful, because if you start a task and do not complete
it, then you will be deducted points.
