Nowadays, travelling by Tren is touted as environmentally friendly and trendy. But it certainly brings some inconveniences, particularly for the poor passengers of the 0 carriages in this puzzle at rush hour. (See what I did there?) I did always prefer the safari version with 2x2 squares as well... maybe a potential cursed variant? 
Rules: Locate some train carriages in the grid, each of which is either 1x2 or 1x3 in size, which may not overlap each other. Each clue must be used by a carriage and each carriage must contain exactly one clue, the value of which represents how many different locations to which the carriage can be moved by sliding it in either direction of the short end without overlapping another carriage or going out of the grid. Staying stationary does not count as one of these locations.
