With Rail simulator we have a new player on a stage that was so far dominated by MSTS and by Trainz. And what a performance! Of course like in every debut there are some very small details to brush up but the overall apreciation is very very positive.
Terrible Train-Simulator.

I bought this product and it didn't work. I have 2GB Ram, 120GB Hard Drive, 2GHz Processor, 128MB Graphics Card, ATI 9600 Vid. Card... and the damn game won't load. I'd recomend you go play something else, like, 18 Wheels of Steel Haulin' - Pedal To The Metal version.

I have a younger son who wanted to play with trains but we did not have any room for a setup. At the simple level, he only needs three keys to to play and the number pad to change the views. So for us, this is great. Good family fun. Worth the special price Amazon had it up for (9.99).
Scenario's Lacking

After reading some of the positive reviews, I just had to write. While I think the overall mechanics of the game are sound, I got board with this game. There are only 2 or 3 scenarios where you're doing any switching. Otherwise, you're taking a load from point A to point B. The big excitement? Watching your speed.
This would have been a great game had it included more scenarios with switching operations. I don't have the time nor do I want to learn how to be a developer and write my own scenarios.
This reminds me of a carnival game where you pay XX amount for the first prize, which isn't much. You keep paying and paying to get a bigger prize. In this case, your paying money to other developers to provide more game enrichment.
Too bad... it had possibilities...

I have a passion for trains. I love playing this game because it is so realistic. I can run so many different trains and chose engines and cars and layout and scenery. It has great graphics.
