I enjoy Factorio for the trains, so I go for the train focused map and disable the critters. Why disable the critters? I'm just in it for the building and it's one less thing I want to fuss with after a long day.

Yes, the train network is a very important part of the overall fun. I love trains and OpenTTD (although I don't play that anymore).

I'm really waiting for an update where train stations will have queue's. This prevents 10+ trains racing en masse to that one single active/open station. It was in the works, hope it's in 1.1

Yeah trains are a huge part of the fun for me. I usually get mods that make resources more dense the farther away they are.

Isn't it in the vanilla game, though?

It is, for trainworlds.

Resource patches get richer the further you go out always in vanilla, not just rail world. Richness is a function of distance from your spawn point.
