Hello Chums!...

...!

Has anyone here pre-ordered the latest version of Train Simulator....Trainz Simulator 2010?....>>>

http://www.justtrains.net/product.asp?pid=529

..replacing Trainz 2009...

...I don't know what that was like?....Any comments?... Roll Eyes

...!

I have the various Truck Simulators; (18 Wheels of Steel, etc), but I haven't yet delved into "Train Simulators"..... Embarrassed

....

...!

Compared to Flight Sims, they are restricted to Roads and Tracks, but its something different to play with on a rainy day!

Any Train enthusiasts?

If you want a really good train sim ....... then Railworks is the way to go Paul.
I have a couple of the older Trainz titles and they are more like a model railway than a train simulator, although I can't be sure of the newer ones.

Thanks for the tip, eno... Wink

I haven't dabbled with Train Sims since Microsoft's early version in the 1990's.... Wink

My recent interest has been in the Truck Simulators;...."18 Wheels of Steel". I have a few of them now, covering the U.S., Europe, Canada, Australia, and South America....exploration at ground level, for a change!

So a Train Sim might be an interesting addition!
