No, GCP wrongfully auto-banned Railway's account causing the outage as parts of Railway's infrastructure (particularly their network layer) relies on GCP

They just made an update:

Identified

We are continuing to work on restoring access to our workloads on Google Cloud. In parallel, our infrastructure team is evaluating alternative paths to bring affected services back online. We do not have an ETA at this time and will continue posting updates as we have them.


a month ago

I haven't received any updates since my last update that isn't on the incidents page unfortunately


a month ago

Should we be worried about our data? I wouldnt expect restoring access shouldnt take more then 4 hours...


a month ago

Don't worry, data wasn't impacted


pmhk
PRO

a month ago

any official person here? No eta? Any eta from gcp?


a month ago

The only impact is GCP hosted components of Railway's infrastructure (like their network layer), data is hosted on Railway's datacenters and or tigris (for buckets)

do you work for Railway?

no ETA, and if by official person you mean Railway employees, Brody is around

To say I'm frustrated to find out that we may be at the whims of a third party for service availability is an understatement. When I signed up for this, it wasn't to sign up for Google Cloud Platform, I could have done that myself. With my Railway costs increasing, i was going to upgrade to Pro this next cycle. Now I am sitting here thinking if I can truly depend on Railway for reliability when it turns out this is a cloud ontop of a cloud, the exact same thing Railway's own blogs have said NOT to do.

8 hours of downtime. No email notification. No ETA. Real revenue lost.

$100M raised at the start of 2026, and an automatic GCP ban brings the entire platform to its knees with no plan B.

Your own post-mortem confirms it: the control plane was entirely hosted on GCP, with no fallback. This wasn't bad luck, it was a known architectural risk that wasn't addressed in time.

With so many paying customers on your platform, this level of fragility is not a technical accident, it's a sign of misplaced priorities.

We are paying customers, not beta testers. When do we get a real explanation?

For many of us, this marks a definitive breaking point in our trust with Railway. And that truly saddens us, because we have been your biggest fans from the very beginning.

The post-mortem is a literal joke! We came to Railway to escape the big guys (GCP/AWS) but it turns out Railway is just a fancy UI for GCP...

Railway is not a GCP wrapper, your workload runs on their own servers.

Railway used GCP for their own API and network plane to avoid a circular dependency issue and according to the post mortem, they won’t be using GCP anymore.

The outage yesterday appears to have brought down every single Railway customer and for a non-trivial amount of time. It is very worrying and now I am finding myself researching alternatives. This is incredibly bad, and a lot of trust has been lost. I do not know what is going on with Google, or why they would suddenly ban Railway's account, but in any case, I would appreciate some sort of compensation or discount on our bill this cycle. (It also appears that there is still fall out from this outage, and is technically not even fully resolved.)
