Are there any links to a free sim on trains??

I saw that about a month ago. Looking forward to seeing it.
I'm undecided yet if I will get it or not. I'll have to wait and see how good it is and how much $$$$ it will cost.

Yeah, I have to agree. If the features are not there then whats the point.

They say it's built on the base of the newest flight simulator program. I wonder if we'll be able to launch a Dash 9 off the runway.

That would be a little strange but it could simulate the Polar Express.

Hah. Probably not, but I do hope this built up the multi-player engine as well. FSX has an airtraffic controller multiplayer feature. I'm hoping this can be transferred to a Dispatcher type multi-player enviroment.

One displatcher with 2-16 trains on the same route in real-time (and viewable/hearable by each other) would totally rock.
