I just found my CDs for Railroad Tycoon 3! I hadn't been able to find it since I re-imaged my hard drive. I think I'll install it later this evening and play it!

Has anyone tried Sid Meier's Railroads!? How does it compare? I don't know if I should get that or stick with RT3.

A recent blog entry on the Yard Limits blog (by a member of the Microsoft Train Simulator development team) has a link to a video showing the current capabilities of the FSX platform at ground level. The new Microsoft Train Simulator will be based on the FSX platform, so this is what they are starting with. Take a look! I'm very impressed, and I have decided two things based on watching that video:
1) I have to get the new Microsoft Train Simulator when it is released! :-)
2) My current computer won't be able to handle it. :-(

Microsoft is working on a new version of the Microsoft Train Simulator. This will be based on technology used in Microsoft Flight Simulator X. You can read about it on the Microsoft Train Simulator website. There isn't much information right now, but there are links to the blogs of some of the development team.
