Train Tracks puzzles by KrazyDad
HERE's my new collection of printable Train Tracks puzzles!
In these puzzles you identify missing train track pieces that connect the entrance and exit from the grid. The track cannot fork nor cross itself. Each piece connects 2 edges of a tile (either going straight, or curving to the left or right). Some of the tiles are empty. The numbers above the puzzle tell you how many track pieces are in each column. The numbers to the right tell you how many track pieces are in each row. Those numbers are your key to solving the puzzle.
My medium, hard and expert Train Tracks puzzles run a little harder than most published puzzles of this type, especially in the higher book numbers. Nonetheless, each puzzle has a unique solution that can be found without guesswork or "brute force" techniques.
Each volume of 100 books starts with the easiest puzzles, and then the difficulty very gradually increases up to book 100. If you are new to these puzzles, I recommend you start with a booklet of the Beginner puzzles, and work on those until you are comfortable with the basic method of solving them. If you find they are too easy, skip ahead to the next difficulty level, and if you are really looking for a challenge, start with book number 50.
If you are looking for Train Tracks puzzles for your print publication, I can produce these in any desired size or difficulty level.
