The length of the journey in Dead Rails is approximately 80 kilometers (80,000 meters) from the start to the Mexican border, which is the end goal of the game
. Traveling this distance on the train takes about 20 minutes of real-time gameplay if you use the Conductor class and do not stop
. The train speed and travel time can vary slightly depending on the class and how often you stop to fight zombies or loot
. At the end of the 80 km journey, players face a final challenge involving a fortified border with Outlaws and a large bridge that must be lowered. Players must survive waves of enemies for about four minutes until the bridge is fully lowered to complete the game
. In summary:
- Distance to the end: 80 km (80,000 meters)
- Approximate travel time on the train: about 20 minutes (Conductor class, no stops)
- Final challenge: survive a timed enemy onslaught at the border bridge
This makes Dead Rails a relatively short but intense survival and travel experience on Roblox.
