New Addiction Microsoft Train Simulator

[Kreig Haus]

Well, as if my layout was going to take enough of my time I went and bought Microsoft Train Simulator. Talk about being addictive! I thought oh well its an old game, I'll try it out since it only cost $10. Once I finally got my stubborn laptop to install the program I was amazed! The graphics and gameplay are out of this world. Then I started snooping around the fan sites and it got even better, you can download so many different locomotives and rolling stock its unbelievable. I know this game has been out since 2001 but is great! Has anyone else played it? What are your thoughts?

PS Thanks Gman for recommending the game to me.

Here is a link to some screenshots I have taken from the game. They feature some BNSF diesels and the Rock Island Rocket passenger train.

After my intial dive into Microsoft Train simulator, which I still love, I started looking around at other games. One I came across was "Trainz" which is supposed to have a new version soon. Has anyone played their old game? Does it compare to MSTS?
