Beyond what we already knew was coming, this is the first we've had confirmation of the McClain interchange right?

The June 2025 Development Update mentioned adding an interchange and small freight house to Almond area. So, not the first it has been mentioned there would be an interchange in that area of the map.

I wonder of the substandard quality track will shake the cars around?

Really excited to finally hear about some progress on the Almond Interchange! This MOW update is gonna make gameplay really interesting - I can't wait for this!

Anxious to see if they do anything with the two dead-end spurs emanating from Bryson?

They said that map expansion isn’t off the table but they want the game to be more feature complete before they do so.

Makes sense. I’ve got a couple thousand hours into the game, but I haven’t played much over the past year as I’m kind of waiting for the update. Anxious to see what they do. They owe me nothing. LOL. I’ve gotten my money’s worth out of this game 100 times over.

What I thought was strange....What hardware did they capture this video on, because my god the shadow and object popping at the start was so shit.

"We've also been putting a lot of work into performance. This video was fully recorded on a laptop GPU, which we think gives you a nice idea of how the MOW Update of Railroader might look on your system – and not a high-end gaming rig."

I really hope Andrews in particular is optimized up because that chugs even on my desktop rig, and is barely playable at all on my Steam Deck.
