While I'm not entirely a fan of the name (reminds me too much of a certain orange man's written ramblings) the premise sounds pretty good:
It seems to be in 3D with some decent cartoony stylings (ugly landscape though) and mimicking TTD quite closely. Of course, this is not out yet but they're aiming for a december 2020 release. It doesn't say if it'll be an early access release, which looking at some details (see attachments) on the screenshots might be a smart plan, but I'm at least intrigued and will probably be picking it up to see if it's any good, if the price isn't too hefty.Inspired by the classic transport tycoon games, Art of the Rail brings the spirit of these games into a modern context.

Last time I did this was somewhat of a disappointment but to be honest it's always fun to scout the Steam/itch.io/GOG libraries for good train fun.
