Thank you all for the welcome(s). <br /> <br />I have MSTS and while I can appreciate its value as a 'game', it lacks the ability to creat layouts - done thru Surveyor in Trainz. It is the one big element that separates the two. Also, the literally thousands of pieces of content available thru the DLS (free) is the other item of importance to all those who like creating layouts. However, one must also be aware of the reasons they purchase the software because some like to drive trains while others like the creative elements of building a layout. They are each targeted at different groups of train lovers. <br /> <br />To railroadyoshi: TRS2006 is now available and for me, I will not (at least at this point) be purchasing it. There is just not enough of a difference - in my opion - between TRS2004 and '06 to warrant the $59.00 let alone the $70.00 odd big bucks although, you do get a pretty big and comprehensive manual for your money. Auran's next verion of the sim is scheduled to have a new game engine which will improve the graphics as well as the games performance on our PC's. That is needed much more in my opinion, than what they have put into TRS2006 currently. And you do not have to pay for the use of the DLS if you have a registered version of Trainz. If you elect to purchase a 'first class ticket' (I have) it just allows you faster downloads. <br /> <br />How does one go about inserting 'images'? <br /> <br />roymac
