Hello, all
Could you help my friend identify an MS-DOS game which he enjoyed as a child? It is a puzzle wherein the player has to move shunt cars and locomotives within a rail-road network in order to assemble a train. It is a graphical game with an English interface.
No, he says it is not that game. Thanks for the suggestion.
Is it Freight Train?
Can't find any screenshots of the game.

That one's a card game :-).
You might check to see if it is one of Abracadata's train titles (Freight Train in particular):

ZanQuance, sorry for the misunderstanding. akula65 showed me that your suggestion is a valid one. I shall ask my friend about it.
Shortline, perhaps?
A bit off-topic, but your post made me remember these two classics from my youth:
is it Railroad Tycoon?
Maybe Donald Duck's Playground. It has a mini game with trains.
Thanks to everybody for your responses. My friend says none of the suggestions is the game he is looking for, but I have discovered Shortline for myself, wherefor I am grateful to StSam.
