which type of train sim do you run on your pc?
I run MS Train Simulator and Trainz 2006 for sims. I also play Sid Meiers' Railroads which is a fun game in the strategy genre although is prone to crashing.
Modeling the fictional B&M Dowe, NH branch in the early 50's.
A friend has the MS Train Simulator we use occasionally, though it has a few glitches. It was a lot more fun with the control stand accessory, his new computer couldn't get it to be compatible though so it was back to the keyboard.
I run MSTS
I have MSTS and Trainz 06'. I have "Rail Driver" configured to run on 60'. Recently got add-on for MSTS, Tehacapi Pass Route Calafornia Gateway Edition. Very Fun. The first time I got completley over a route! Yay for me!

The problem with my friends' MSTS is that you can never complete a run. Inevitably a train will break in two or derail for no reason. Just seems to happen almost every time, at least on the long routes.
I have Microsoft Train Simulator with the RailDriver control stand. I also have a ton of downloads that I'm trying to get organized.

Hey speaking of RailSimulator. I installed the game the first day I got and it ran. I downloaded a sound pack to the game but I didn't like it so I uninstalled it so I could get rid of it. I reinstalled the game and come to the password screen. After I hit next after the password screen it goes blank. It dosen't install.
Can someone help me on this?
i bought my copy of trains simulator and i installed and fiddeled around with since i am used to running the microsoft train sim and so had to used to the controls for running the train.i see that your hacing a problem with your rail simulator,i would suggest that you uninstall the program completly from your pc and then reinstalling it again this might work.hope this helps
I wish the Rail-Driver was notched, had notches. Maby it's just my pc but on Trainz 06' I have to quicley jerk the throttle back to get it to change. any-one else have this problem?
I run MSTS with a lot of added features such as MSTS Bin (game enhancement), Xtracks, and Newroads
Also I tend to use add on routes, since the originals are neither good, nor perfect. For instance, in the original NEC, there's a lot of absent speed restrictions. Also some of the latest lines I've installed are really great and explore the game's engine, wich dates back to 2001, to its maximum possibilities. I'm also starting to work in both route, rolling stock and consist building
Im getting the High Desert Rails edition this weekend.
Railroad Tycoon II Platinum Edition.
If you like strategy.

I have MSTS and it works fine only thing that happend so far is a broken cuplour or derailed a car.
They said there is a new MSTS coming out soon.
One question,
I was runnin' an intermodal train on the Cajon Pass today. I would damage the freight it seemed like every time I moved the throttle, and don't even get me started on the air! This really frustrates me, beacause I am going to become an engineer one day and I don't want to damage freight. Is this the game or me. Is this really realalistic? What can I do to better controll the train?
On my friends MS Train Sim, you had certain routes that no matter what you just couldn't get the train all the way across. I wouldn't worry about it compared to the real world too much.
MS has canceled MSTS II.
