This is a tutorial-by-example of how to play the older Densha de Go! (電車でGO!; DDG) games. It covers DDG1, DDG2, DDG2-3000, DDG3, DDG Professional, DDG Nagoya Railroad, DDG3 and DDG Professional 2 (partially) as they all use the same style of gameplay.

It is aimed at new players to the series who also may not understand how to read Japanese (in order to understand the in-game tutorials). It provides both basic info on getting started in the game, and some tips for developing skills for all levels of play.

Note that some sections require pausing to read.

-- Footnotes --

- In the part talking about phase shifts, this also does not apply to the steam trains in Kisha de Go! (汽車でGO!).
- DDG Professional 2 has instantly-applying speed limits, signs and signals.
- DDG1, KDG, 2, 2-3000 and 3 do not have the navigator.
- DDG Professional 2's navigator is very short compared to earlier games with navigators (All other games: ~270 to 300m, Professional 2: ~200m).
- DDG Professional 2 does not penalise accelerating inside stations.
- In the part talking about speed limit violations, not listed is that DDG Professional 2 also uses the harsher penalty seen in DDG1, 2 and 2-3000.
- You are not penalised for using the emergency brakes if you are completely stopped before you applied them.
