I think an easy mode is a good idea, I will explore that. I'm glad you like the surprises, I do think they add another layer to the game and makes it more stategic.

I actually really liked the current mode - for me it was a more fun and exciting challenge wondering whether it was even possible to get there on €500. Maybe leave it as is, but once you run out of money it could then give you the opportunity to keep playing on sandbox mode or something.

That was actually my original thought as well. It just kind of seamlessly switches over, but I do like the idea of a prompt into sandbox mode too

I love this, but I'm thwarted. Apparently there are no trains from London Waterloo (one of the UKs busiest railway stations) at 1902. I've been stuck there waiting for trains for so many years I can tell you that's not the case :)

there were no trains from Waterloo at 19.02 because of a "major disruption" https://www.express.co.uk/news/uk/2170277/waterloo-trains-li...

I'm not sure that's what the article says (there was disruption on some lines because of a problem further down the line.) There certainly would have been trains leaving some platforms.

But, interesting that the game is based on live transport info, not schedules. Adds a new twist to it, thank you!
