The team behind the successful OpenRCT2 has begun working on OpenLoco, an open-source reimplementation of Chris Sawyer's Locomotion!

Uh, regular Locomotion is playable?

Not the way I play games. I'm more of a planner. That means I'd rather not have time tick by while I figure out how to make New Stockton connect to Brimbledon.

As far as that's concerned, the game does have a pause button at the bottom right, albeit one that doesn't allow building.

Which is exactly the problem.
