It's been a long time since I last heard anything about this expected simulator!
It was planned to be realeased in winter 2003, but somehow MS changed the plan and now, the game is almost history!
They didn't stop it and didn't release it!  ???
Is that a new marketing strategy or something?!  Wink

Any informations on what's going on in MS Game Studios are well appreciated!

I've seen an interview with one of the MS folks that said MSTS 2 was dead...cancelled.

Avsim has a trainsim section in their forums, I thin it was there I read about the cancellation. I know that the MSTS 2 website has been taken down.

Just read the cancellation statement on Gamespot:

So it's dead, and probably forever! Well, at least they didn't cutoff all the simulations line!  Roll Eyes
Thanks fox.

  I've been playing around with Trainz myself, it's a great Railroad simulator.
