Amazon.com Review
Train Simulator takes the obsessive realism of Microsoft's best-of-breed Flight Simulator games down to earth. Six real-world rail lines are included from throughout history, including the Flying Scotsman line of 1920s England and the modern Odakyu Electric Rail commuter line in Tokyo. Attendees at the National Model Railroad Association's August 2000 convention marveled at the game's painstaking attention to detail. But this game is not a model railroad game; it simulates the real thing. The game's developers traveled across the world with cameras and microphones in order to authentically capture the trains in their natural habitats. Train Simulator lets you experience the world's greatest trains in all their glory. Train aficionados can drive the train, run the rail yard, or dive in with the terrain editor and create the rail lines of their dreams. Or you can just sit back, relax, and admire the beautiful scenery and dreamy click-clack of the tracks. --Andrew S. Bub

 jake's trains June 16, 2008
My mom purchased this game for me. We got online and checked out other train simulator games. When we read the reviews for the games we looked at, they refered this game as the best. I really, really love it. You can pick the train, the track, the season, the weather conditions and the cars. The game is very good because you drive the train, control the speed and the brakes. It also simulates the scenes in the engine and out of the engine, all the way to the caboose. I also like it when it simulates a crash when you make an error. You can observe it in the cab and out of the cab. Very great game worth buying.

No one else has mentioned the enormous amount of fun one can have with this (or any other rail simulation for that matter)by simply exploring at your own pace all the little highways and byways of this new and fascinating track world.
Select an engine with which you feel the most comfortable and then get off the main track and enjoy a gentle run along the back "lanes" of the different countryside areas. In some cases you may only go a few hundred yards while in others you can travel for miles just idling away as you see fit.
For long journeys I use a "Class 50" on its own while for the really little known places something like the "Nene Valley NV8" really fits the bill.
Have fun - that's what these games are for!!
 Train Simulator November 17, 2007
The software presents a realistic feeling of driving a train. The secenery is good. Train options are somewhat limited although the entire range of trains(Electric,Diesel and Steam) are available. Tutorials and training guides are excellent. This is a good starter software and in discussing other software available, is preferred.

If you or anyone you know is a fan of trains-either watching them, photographing them, video taping them or riding on them, then this video simulator is for you. You can either watch the train that you are controlling from the sidelines or be in the cab of the train handling the controls of it. There are several different trains in this simulation along with several different weathers conditions to work with. This simulator is fantastic.
