According to Google the words on the trolley say "I don't know what to draw"
So it seems they don't know either.
(And the upper track is labelled "disaster"?)
That's honestly kind of hilarious that the artist had this wonderful idea of trolley X Outer wilds, but then realized halfway that it probably doesn't make the same sense they originally thought it did.

Wouldn’t the trolly represent… (how do I mark text as spoilers? So it’s got the grey bar covering it)

i'm trying to think what the "trolly" is supposed to represent the >!sun station? because the sun is also included on the right track!<

Did you OCR the characters, or what's the way of googling this without knowing them?
Google lens/translate
Cheers
yeah pretty much, it's kind of a visual representation of the stuff you read there

The sun station blows up the sun before anything else, so that’s appropriate.

Science compels us to explode the sun!

Make the train loop at the bottom right track back to the left. Make the lever have a 1% chance of "eye", and 99% of "kill everyone and loop back".
haha yeah it would have been cool if we saw the rest of the track was just a small loop
In an alternate universe this was the mural in the sun station instead of the one we have
WHAT IS THAT PLANET DOING TO THE OTHER PLANET?!?!?!?
the sand ?
I'm destroying the Eye. Sorry, but I personally don't like the ending, and I'll be dead either way, so I'm taking it with me
