Awesome, but Impractical: The choice of trains in A-Train III. Only the AR III, the most expensive passenger train, really generates significant revenues.

An Entrepreneur Is You: Earlier installments in the series are some of the hardest "tycoon" games to date, where mistakes in the stock market can spell certain doom for your company.

A.I.-Generated Economy: Given enough building materials, new buildings will automatically be built near stations. Besides, the AI generates the real estate market and the stock exchange.

Creator Provincialism: While the character faces have been changed in the international release of A-Train III, 14 out of 18 trains in the game (including the Shinkansen which is eventually built by the computer) are Japanese.
