The Railroad is an exterior region located north of the Mountain. It becomes accessible after an earthquake clears the blocked pass on the 3rd of Summer in the first year. As you wake up a message reads "There was an earthquake during the night."
Trains
On random days between 9am and 6pm, a train can pass through the area. If the player is outdoors, a message will pop up saying "A train is passing through Stardew Valley" accompanied by a train whistle sound.
While the train cars pass by, items such as Leprechaun Shoes, Stone, Coal, Iron Ore, Wood, and Geodes may fall off and be acquired. The player need not be present when the train goes by, but dropped items will disappear overnight, so they must be collected the same day. The train will pass by and drop items even if the game is paused. If the player triggers a Railroad cutscene (e.g., the wizard's Dark Talisman quest) while a train is passing, the train will be invisible (but audible) except for smoke clouds from the locomotive.
A player who stands in front of the train as it approaches or attacks the train with certain tools or weapons will suffer minor damage and be knocked back. The player can get stuck between the passing train and the platform, suffering damage repeatedly, losing all Health, and passing out.
Train Types
There are several different types of trains that can pass by. The most common type of train has cars containing various resources, such as wood, stone, or coal. It may also have a passenger car or have cars with graffiti on the sides.
Other train occurrences include:
- A dark grey train with Joja logos on the side of its cars.
- A passenger train comprised of only passenger cars.
- A normal resource train that moves at twice the speed of other trains.
- A blue train that moves at twice the speed of other trains and has barred windows.
- A red train with cars containing presents, but only during Winter.
Areas
Train Platform
The Train Platform is located north of the tracks. There is an empty box that is used for the "The Mysterious Qi" Quest. Harvey's 10 Heart Event also takes place here.
The Spa
In the southwest of the Railroad is the Spa. Standing still when in the pool causes energy and health to be quickly restored. Penny’s 10 Heart Event takes place here.
There is a small pond against the outside of the spa. An Ornate Necklace can be caught there after reading Secret Note #25. A painting called 'Vista' can also be caught there. Neither of these items can be obtained during Winter as the water will be frozen.
Witch's Swamp
There's a passage to the Witch's Swamp through the cave northeast of the train platform. This cave will be unlocked by completing a series of quests given by the Wizard. A cutscene initiating the quests will start when the player first enters the Railroad area after completing either the Community Center bundles or Joja Community Development Form. After completing these quests players can use the cave to travel to the Witch's Swamp at anytime.
The Summit
The Summit can be accessed by a staircase in the northwest area of the railroad. Initially, the stairs are blocked by a boulder that the player can not move. The player can access the summit once Perfection is achieved.
Foraging
Forageable items found on the ground in the Railroad are:[1]
- In Spring:
Daffodil (45%), 
Dandelion (35%), and 
Leek (20%) - In Summer:
Sweet Pea (47%), 
Spice Berry (27%), and 
Grape (27%) - In Fall:
Wild Plum (37%), 
Blackberry (37%), and 
Hazelnut (25%) - In Winter:
Crystal Fruit (50%), and 
Crocus (50%)
There are only 31 locations where forageable items can spawn, and initially they are mostly covered by weeds, sticks, and rocks. Once the debris is cleared, items can spawn at an average rate of 0.1 per night.[2] The map shows the possible locations as red and magenta tiles; when the original trees are present, the magenta tiles have a 90% smaller chance of spawning items because they are identified as being behind the original trees.
Artifact Spots
The only Artifact that can be found by digging up Artifact Spots at the Railroad is:
Prehistoric Tibia (4-8%[3])
Other possible items are:
- 1-3
Clay (19-37%[3]) 
Lost Book (20% + 6-12%[3]); once all Lost Books have been found, any potential Lost Book is replaced by 
Mixed Seeds.- Only in Winter:
Winter Root (24%) - Only in Winter:
Snow Yam (16%) - 1-3
Stone (6-12%[3]) - 1-3
Copper Ore (5-11%[3]) - Only in Spring: 2-5
Rice Shoots (5%) - An unseen
Secret Note: up to 3% chance, only if the player has a Magnifying Glass.
Artifact spots spawn at an average rate of 0.25 per night, except in winter when the average rate increases to 0.4 per night.[4]
Villager Paths
Villager Paths at the Railroad
Most of the railroad map is safe from villagers destroying items placed on the map. However, four villagers do enter the area:
- Abigail stands in front of the train platform on most days in Summer (not on Wednesday, Friday, or Sunday).
- Alex visits the Spa on most days in Winter.
- Linus stands next to the Spa on all non-rainy days in Fall; he enters the Spa every day in Winter.
- Sebastian walks the length of the train tracks on Thursdays.

Notes
- Standing in front of a train will cause damage to the player. Standing inside the right side of the train tunnel will cause the player to get stuck, and eventually pass out if their health is drained.
