RailSimDec 27, 2008 Excellent graphics and a wide variety of scenarios sure to please a train enthusiast. My only wish was that there were better playing guides included, such as how to set switches, etc...

Railsimulator not so difficult after allOct 30, 2008 Railsimulator has been out for 12 months, so I thought I would buy it hoping that some of the earlier reported bugs are now fixed. To my delight, they have been fixed and the sim was very easy to install and run. To get the most out of the sim you need to register at the RS web site where there is a wealth of helpful advice to get started plus the added bonus of free downloads which include rolling stock,scenarios and fixes and upgrades to make the sim very stable with nice fluid graphics. Also available at the RS site are links to other sites where you can obtain more free stuff and of course payware addons. Overall I am very happy with sim and consider it to be exceptional value.

Memory hog, no funSep 08, 2008 After taking forever to load, Rail Simulator never worked properly on our PC. My sons proclaimed it a dud. It's already become Tag Sale fodder in our house.
