About this product

Product Information

Transit enthusiasts can ride more than 1,000 miles of real-life routes in Kuji Entertainment's Rail Simulator. Amateur engineers can take the helm of historical and contemporary steam, diesel, and electric trains as they travel throughout North America and Europe. Fifteen different scenarios are available, from running short commuter routes to hauling huge loads of freight, or gamers can try the free-roam mode for a more leisurely experience. Exclusive to the North American release is the Barstow to San Bernardino route, along with new Union Pacific rail cars and locomotives. Rail Simulator comes with a full track and world editor that lets players design highly detailed environments through which original routes can pass, and additional content is available for download.

Rail Simulator by EA
Long story short, save your money and don't waste your time with this game! In all honesty this would have been a below average game if the graphics weren't so good. The graphics and the dynamic scenery are really what saved it from being a lower graded game for me. The trains look awesome and the moving engineer and working windshield wipers are all nice touches, but the controls are very close to Microsoft's Train Simulator, with a few frustrating changes. Its like they wanted to copy Microsoft but not completely, so the reversed some of the controls for added confusion. The "easy" controls are more difficult to understand so do the advanced controls. Plus many of the actual missions lack important tips, like where you need to back up. They tell you to do it at milepost ... but there is no milepost to be seen! Also, they only used one horn recording for all of the American Diesel loco's, not very much time put in there! All in all I prefer Microsoft's Train Simulator (MSTS) over this particular game. If you are a true rail fan, get MSTS and then join Railserve or TrainSim (dot com) and download any of the countless trains or missions they offer on their websites. If you are a graphics person and not really into trains and their horns and actual operations, but want to get a general idea of what kind of railroad graphics are provided, this game might be worth it. But then again, Microsoft is supposed to be releasing Train Simulator 2 in 2009, so you might be better served waiting for that one!Read full review

Average on a good day!!
its an alright game, if you just like to get your feet wet with rail simulation. The graphics and trains sound are very good at best but can be more sluggish on low-end multimedia PCs. The missions on the game are OK, however they are very vague and lack any real-life substance. EA games didn't acquire a lot of licenses at all for this game so the true rail fan will not be able to play with the common roadnames seen on the rails today( BNSF,UPS,CSX, JB Hunt)which leaves the player only with thoughts on how well this game could've been instead of how good the game is.

Rail Simulator
I bought rail sim because I had Microsoft Train, but when I upgrade my PC, MS Train would not run on Vista. I really like the graphics and seeing other trains go by, but most unhappy with the limitations of this sim. Maybe it is me, not sure. I cannot add cars to a train on free play. The Barstow run only comes with two engines and a caboose. I haven't even attempted to create my own scenerio, since I am having problems understanding the instructions. This sim would have been perfect if it did all that MS Train could do and have the excellant graphics it now has, including having other trains go by.

Rail Simulator you would think you were in the cab
I received the Rail Simulator and was impressed with the feeling of being in the drivers seat of a real modern locomotive. The sounds, the feel, of being in the drivers seat. I can see now why it takes a lot of training to be a locomotive engineer. I bought this dvd to see how it felt to operate a real train. Sitting in the drivers seat looking out the windshield and knowing there are tons of railroad cars behind you, [and it will take a long time to stop if you have to at speed], incredable feeling. You have to keep watch for the signals, [make sure you have a green one], know what to do if it is red/yellow ,keeping a steady hand on the throttle while making sure the air pressure is up, blowing the horn at crossing, many things to do at the same time. I have Lionel trains and this gives me more insite to operating train. Have not tried the steam as yet. In looking over the instructions for operating a steem locomotive there are a even more things to learn about steam locomotive operation. Hats off to all those locomotive operators out there..Read full review

Another older Train Simulator
A more advanced Train Simulator than Microsoft Train Simulator, graphically. The operations and controls may be a little bit less user-friendly than MSTS. It is still a decent 2008 era simulator, however, there are much fewer add-on packages to be had. It does not require a Steam account to operate, which is why I got it instead of RailWorks or Trainz or Train Simulator.
