My personal favorite handheld/mobile indie game of 2009, Train Conductor, has had some good news come down the pipeline recently in the last couple of months. The wonderful devs behind the release — The Voxel Agents — have been hard at work on new content. But last week’s release of a new level — Australia’s Barossa Valley — to Train Conductor wasn’t enough. Rather, the Voxel Agents have been working on a new game altogether: Train Conductor USA, and that announcement has been keeping me really excited.

While the now five Australian locations are a ton of fun to play through, the idea of new gameplay mechanics within Train Conductor USA‘s two announced locations (as I’m sure more are incoming) — the Grand Canyon and New York City — are looking spectacularly promising.

Make sure to update your copy of Train Conductor and get your hands on that new DLC. As for Train Conductor USA, I’ll work to keep you posted but in the meantime, check out the video below.
