The game map starts out empty, without any preexisting trains or buildings, and the player builds railway track and stations with little restriction save for existing roads and bodies of water. The gameplay of NIMBY Rails is entirely set on an OpenStreetMap-based map of the whole world, without computer-generated maps or levels. It was released as an early access game in 2021. The game involves developing a railway network on an in-game map based on the real world.
NIMBY Rails is a railway simulation game developed by Carlos Carrasco.
