TSBLA Head Start
What is TSBLA Head Start?
TSBLA Head Start is a dedicated facebook group where we work together helping beginner level members (up to Level 125) needing to learn the basics from the more experienced players about the game and how to progress in it.
The only requirements to join are:
Have a minimum of level 25,
Be willing to put in some effort to accomplish the tasks we have set up to help you progress.
Be willing to listen and work with the mentors and assistants to learn how to trade and be part of a group environment.
All of the tasks will help you progress in knowledge while helping you progress in game levels as well.
We help, advise, and mentor, we won't tell you how to play your game. There are three task levels to complete, each with it's own group of tasks. You go at your own pace. You can do the tasks in any order that you want to do them. Each level has tasks to complete that will help you both learn the game and progress while doing them.
What kind of things will I learn?
Each group of tasks, Level One through Level Three, when completed, have an award that will be posted on the TSBLA wall so everyone can enjoy your progress. Completion of all tasks are required to graduate from the Learning Center but you can leave whenever you want to whether you complete them all or not.
We have several mentors to advise and help you. Since there will be students of different game levels here, we will help with the following for those that need it, and of course, there is a lot more that is not listed here.
Which buildings are needed first, and what they do.
Mat hauling, get used to it, it will never end.
Effective use of engines and cars
How to build up passenger counts.
XP cars and how to use them.

Prepare for the higher levels...
It's no secret that as you get to the higher levels at Trainstation, that life gets tough, gaps between levels get wider, materials and gold requirements get bigger. But do not fear, even after achieving Level 125 TSBLA Head Start will set you up to be able to cope with the game shift and keep the interest going and many of our alumni have gone on to become mentors or group admins or pay it forward with their own help, so it's true, it could be you, but remember this is not your boring class that you remember from school, there's fun too and the main group, so what are you waiting for.... join TSBLA Head Start now and experience "The Way to Play".
