A train game with a share and investment structure, but not too dense, and you still get to play with tiny trains?

Did you wake up today, and suddenly have the urge to run a railway in the Philippines? No? What if I told you the railways are on Luzon, the largest and most-populous of the Philippine islands? Yeah, I knew it, I knew that'd swing it for you.
