Yeah, and it's not like the RailYard workers don't have other things to do - like fighting enormous crobsters! Oh well, it's been taking me 4-5 days to finish instead of the usual 3.

Farm KEMs. It's quicker, easier, and by far more rewarding. Unless you're after the rail pieces there's just not really a reason to bother with it any more.

I have dozens of so far unused sections of each type of track, so I don't really need that either. I should probably just keep those folks on cash duty and build more KEMs each harvest (up to 30 every 4 hours at the moment, which is keeping my cash approximately steady).

Too deep a subject for my shallow mind.

I like my rail yard routine. It's just part of the game.Rail yard, Maggie game, Insanity Pepper game, SH, Springfield Downs. Love all of the track pieces.

I still do my railyard every week. It's nice to build up a big stockpile of tracks just in case we ever get another Monorail event (hint hint EA).

I too make sure I get my 5 weekly donuts, I'm not getting them by the hundreds as some of you so I still need to grind out rail pieces. I don't know how many I have in storage, it's about the donuts.

This is the first week since the momoral came out that I'm skipping it in favor of the event and the KEM farm. Feels weird but looking forward to finishing the event over the next day or two and take a bit of a break.

Chalk me up as one more person addicted to the weekly railyard. I don't even care about the tracks anymore. Am only in it for the donuts. I know it's not a lot but just can't seem to stop.

I did forget about it this morning, though. We had a bad storm come through yesterday afternoon. It took down a lot of trees and powerlines. Lost power until around 5am this morning. Totally forgot about the railyard...

I doubt I’m going to start KEM farming, but your comment piqued my curiosity. Just how much time do users expend on farming during the course of a typical day? (I know people have a natural tendency to minimize such time estimates, so if you choose to respond here, please try to resist doing that.)

I've been *farming* approx. 45 KEM's 2-3 times per day for the past few weeks, and the only reason it takes more than a minute each time is because they absolutely refuse to be laid-out in straight lines. :lol:
