I didn't know which forum to add it to, your thoughts:

Not bad. I shall probably buy it anyway. Not entirely sure if it’s an improvement over EA Railsimulator is graphically, although not especially interested in that. What I’d like to see is decent signalling, timetables, operations, super elevation of track and multiplay, where one person takes charge of part of signal operations.

The Mk2 Patch addresses some of the signalling problems in EA railsimulator and they have got super elevation working behind the scenes. Whether a US simulator can deliver accurate UK operations remains to be seen, but I remain open minded and supportive of all software, including the forthcoming Trainz classics 3.

Looks ok & probably will be better accepted in the US thanks to it's content. I will probably buy it as well, but then I seem to buy all of them. But who ever did that video?!?!:roll: Jeez how to make a sim look like a trainset! 0 to flat out on the throttle, brakes that seem to stop on a dime & shunting onto stock at about 15mph!
Think they could of made it more realistic for a promo vid. Cant see Flightsim fans approving of a video showing a 747 dropping 100 feet straight down onto a runway after all.

exactly! unrealistic physics too, it wouldn't acclerate that quickly at the start, especially when you just thrash the power to full straight away, it would overload it with amps!
