In its simplicity beauty hides. Twin cities river valley with burgeoning industry and occasional cows, Wrench Valley is a fine example of a level everyone can and should complete :) Perfect amounts of difficult, tricky and puzzling, this train valley offers both topographical surprises while planning your tracks and - again - just the right amount of untimely restart possibility.
You completed Train Valley 2 and all its DLCs? You deserve a challenge according to @Captain Obvious — 2 cities, 13 productions, colourful 4 island with multiple bridge connections layout, several autotrains to keep it interesting and not a single a TV2$ to waste.
Supply the construction site with resources, food and water — preservation of many species is at stake (especially ghosts :) — no wrong deliveries, optional usage of northern double bridge island, state of the art water factory to build and just 15 minutes?
Sequel to the massively popular car deconstructing level picks up the story of car manufacturing business hardships and once again uses the disassemble a complex mechanism into components to use elsewhere. DNDATT, complex junctions, very enjoyable.
We will watch your career with great interest, @Miaxlo :)
https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2583592889 that tells a story of two Martian cities, magical supplies shortage, particular green mineral probable involvement too (don't want to spoil the plot :) — lower than Earth gravity, zero tolerance for property damage, very generous timers and seemingly unsuitable topography for track laying.
and
https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2585248058 where autotrains invasion is happening all day every day — seek alternate ways to cross autotrains' tracks piercing the valley, earn enough money to use them if you find any and avoid train crashes.
and
https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2587387472 - this week's winning level.
TV2 Super Grand Prix 2021 is on, fastest engines from worlds' most competitive train valleys gathered to compete in demanding business of very fast railway deliveries. DNSAT is a requirement of course :) Clever pitstop mechanic combined with negative price toll stations make a different Train Valley gameplay alltogether - now with updated objectives, slightly reduced maximum time and obstacles!
@Miaxlo is our newest winner! A €10 Steam gift card will be delivered to them by our contact ASAP.
Don't forget to tell us about your TV2 workshop adventures and visit our Discord server for an upcoming LPT challenge. Until next week!

Weekly Winner - August 23rd
Train Valley 2 Steam Workshop creators delivering new levels at full steam once more :)
Suspiciously perfect Y-shaped mountain formation defines gameplay for the next 23 minutes. We're talking tunnels, pink trees and multitrain speed junctions. Make 4 wrong deliveries, keep an eye on your engine upgrades, anticipate stuffed toy bear black market trend changes — and absolutely no uranium smuggling :)
HONOURABLE MENTION
https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2577813577 and https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2579469781
Upgraded and refined, two levels packed with train heavy duty delivery action, developing massive logistics operation, earning much and rediscovering routes and constructing supply chains while surveying untamed yet somehow familiar and bustling with detail landscapes.
Yet another extraterrestrial life-themed level that raises questions like "Are we the first to walk this Earth?" and "What kind of cheese is Moon made of?". We will help supplying a super secret facility with everything a super secret facility needs - rockets and cows among other things :) 25 minutes to wrap it up, tunnels to build, ancient and very pricey monoliths to avoid.
KamikazeBee claims all they wanted was "something chill to play". We think they succeeded in created that something - chill indeed, with just the right difficulty level that comes from supervising several junctions at once — controlling railroad switches and keeping in mind all Passenger Flow colour recipes. Plenty of time and no train crashes, Chill Valley is ultimately not as hectic as it looks — but is satisfying to solve.
Continuing with the chill level trend, SpaceX is all about fulfilling supply requirements. No tricks required. No treacherous terrain to slow you down. Just go ahead and build, connect, upgrade, deliver. A straightforward puzzle, unusual in its delivery yet clear about its message :)
@UnicastProduction is our newest winner! A €10 Steam gift card will be delivered to them by our contact ASAP.

Level of the Month - July 2021 - Snow In The Summer And Locomotive Palæontology 101 Edition :)
We cannot upgrade our engines, we have two separate production chains to run, we are to navigate a three-region valley with a T-shaped junction in the middle of everything, we must persevere cold and exorbitant power bills, we will learn to produce a new fuel formula that includes dynamite sticks and copper ingots, we know there is a shortcut somewhere, we absolutely adore building our tracks while looking at these menacingly towering above fossils, we suspect we are not alone in this remote arctic location...
We LPT'ed it, we completed it, we completed it again right after. Thank you for some much needed cold temperatures - if only on our screens - and generous time limits. Congratulations @LittleBear, your €30 Steam gift card is on its way!
Train Valley 2 community and developers want you, reader, to bring out your level editor and show us train driving complexity levels we never knew even existed. Build, create, compete. Having fun is a requirement.

a Passenger Flow flavoured multitasking test - watch out for different although so closely built track routes required for passenger trains and Engineer deliveries + a DNSAT objective.
Access to airplanes is high. A high-level of topography detail entry that brings us to Nevos / Eden Prime / maybe 2175 Aeia requires of us 200 deliveries without a single wrong station one, deploys fastest engines, provides us with a TV2$ 300 000 and 32 minutes, has certain puzzle inside a puzzle way of keeping us entertained. Access to metals is low.
Everything is preconstructed, so a Do Not Build A Single Track Tile is keeping us company. At least 4 autotrains to help boost production in a Passenger Flow mechanic of combining coloured passenger trains into differently coloured passenger trains :) A supply chain with simultaneous dual bribery at the Customs stations, a conveniently located Vespene gas deposit, exactly TV2$ 0 to our name and a single engine to drive. All we need to do is earn all. The. Money.
Two tunnels to the west are to be demolished for that funds boost. 18 minutes, no wrong deliveries, a very up-to-date Customs officer that accepts CPUs only, this bright autumn vibe multistorey divided layout design shows little mercy for train crashes or any other kind of accident one may have. Very challenging, much restarts, such wow :)
