oddly enough AVSIM actually has some addons for the game. albeit they aren't the greatest but its somewhere to look :)

Excuse my ignorance, but what can be so exciting about simming a train? It only goes forward or backward (slowly). It can't climb, can't make graceful two-minute turns and you certainly can't lose control suddenly and crash, wiping out a good flight in the process. What be the allure?

Well there can be hard to make timetables. You can do missons witch invole remenering lot's of stuff (like a traffic pattern in FS) ;). And the rain can hit around 110Mph. and the bullut train hit's about 250Kph ;)

the train can derail... quite easily i might add  :-[

and it's a lot more fun than it seems at first sight... i have to admit i thought the exact same thing when i first saw it, but then the curiosity started gaining on me and i had to try the game

it's really cool when that 200 car train that weighs like a gazillion tons starts moving... and you know you'll have to make it stop somehow later on  8-)

i just wish MSTS gave you more freedom... i felt somewhat stuck with the scenarios it gives you....
i wanted it to be more like... choose a train, choose a track, ride...

well, i didn't play it for that long actually.... maybe there is more freedom and i just didn't know about it

Good sim in any case... just missing good DVCs ::)

Cheers
