Evaluation
Train Station Simulator entered Steam Early Access on December 14, 2017, and received regular updates through 2018 and into 2019–2020. The developer shipped multiple major updates during this period, including large feature patches and two significant content updates in May and June 2020 (versions 0.9.3 and 0.9.4). In a May 2020 announcement, the developer stated that a final 1.0 release was being considered for 2020 and expressed intent to support the game "for many years." The last developer communication of any kind was the version 0.9.4 release post on June 16, 2020. Since then — nearly six years — there have been no updates, patch notes, announcements, or any other communication from the developer. The game remains at version 0.9.4 in Early Access, well short of the 1.0 release that was planned. With no explanation for the silence and no indication of whether development is continuing or has been abandoned, the status of this game is highly uncertain.
Evidence
Version 0.9.4 released with train interiors, freight additions, VIP areas, food trucks, and other features. This is the last developer communication of any kind.
Version 0.9.3 shipped to the Windows beta branch with numerous new features including train interiors, freight train additions, VIP areas, and new restaurant options.
