First off, I (SneakyFungus) was the one who discovered this.Okay, so you want to see what the game behind the title screen looks like?
No problem!Just rename TITLE.DAT to a regular saved game name, such as TRT00.SV1. Now open it!But don't expect too much.Also, unfortunetly, I could't change the title game, when I did I just got flat grass land.

Disrupt competitor's road networks
Platforms: DOS 
Type: General Hints/Tips

If the computer competitors AI is starting to annoy you, here's an easy way to dispose of them.

On their roadways, build a single segment of rail. This gives you control over the land. Then delete the track - you'll delete their segment of road at the same time.

Of course you can never delete all of their roads. The ones with trucks and buses on can't be deleted, but it's a pretty good start.

Disrupt competitors rail building
Platforms: DOS 
Type: General Hints/Tips

If you competitor builds a station in a town you have claimed for yourself, there's an easy way to get rid of them.

On golden rule in this game is the fact that your railroads cannot cross those belonging to a competitor. With this knowledge, disrupting their railway is simple. As soon as their station appears, build a quick railroad line across it, perpendicular to their lines. It your fast enough you can do this before they can start on their tracks. They can't build round or over your lines so they'll give up and remove their station. Job done.

If you're not fast enough to do this then block his lines a little further out. He'll try to wriggle out of it for a while, and as he withdraws, block his lines further until you're back at his station. 

======================

Good Company Rating: 
Rename a town to "Happy Town".  

=======================

Eliminate CPU buses:
Build a snaking railroad line over the bus route. The train will destroy the CPU buses, but will also eliminate your own trucks and buses. 

======================

Eliminate CPU airplanes:
Build a tree covered tall hill at the end of the CPU's runway. 

========================

Fast population:
When creating a city, put down a large city, start expanding it, take out all the small houses, and keep expanding. When it takes a lot of clicks before it increases population (usually around 30,000), put a small city as close as possible, even if it touches. Then, delete the small city and the large city's population will stay the same even though a portion of the city itself was erased. This may be repeated until about 70,000, at which point it will revert back to 0.

========================== 

Hint: Faster trains:
If you have a long train that takes a long time at stops, make sure you have a train orientation depot on your track. When it stops at a station, let it unload/load at a station, then press the button with a train on it. Then the train that is at the stop. Press the button to turn it around if needed, then finally press the button that takes the train to the depot twice, It will leave the stop and go to the next one.

============================= 

Hint: Destroy opponent road vehicles:
Over a road where your opponents' road vehicles travel, build two railroad tracks that are connected on the road. On one side, build a train depot and buy a train. Have the train stop over the tracks so that the road vehicles stop at the flashing lights. Then, reverse the direction of the train and let it go. As soon as the lights stop blinking and a truck is on the tracks, reverse direction of the train again. If done correctly, the train will hit and blow up the vehicle. Note: Some vehicles will not move until other hit trucks are cleared off the tracks.
 
==========================

Hint: Easy money:
Start a new game on desert. Select MegaRail 1960 then set your company up. Put your loan money up to the maximum then go to the company list. Buy 75% of the company. When the money of the company is in the negatives, the company will be sold off and declared bankrupt. Keep the company called "Parker and Co." on the screen. When the company is declared bankrupt, sell 75% of the company. You will then be a millionaire. Your company value will increase to about $65,666,000 and your money will be at about $60,000,000. Remember to pay back your loans. 

======================== 

Glitch: Flashing lights:
Build two connected railroad tracks over a road. Build a depot on the side of the track that is not on the road. Buy a train and let it go. Get the train on the track over the road and reverse it a few times to keep the lights on. Then, let the train go to the end of the track. It will turn around automatically. Send it to the depot, sell it, and destroy the depot. If done correctly, the lights will be flashing with no train.
