Is anyone into train simulators? They sound interesting, but are they worth the money?

Do you mean like computer game simulators? I would most definatly, if you know of a good one please tell me!
Same thing goes for Big Rig sims if you know of any, I have never found one that was actually good...

Here's a link for Train Simulator Software (http://lioneltrainauctions.com/Model-Train-Store/Train-Simulator-Software)
Yes it's my site. I built it so I could buy all my materials for my upcoming project. Its going to take years so I figure I will buy everything from myself and save some cash. If you guys spend lots of money on your materials this method can save you some bucks. I'll show you how. :)
Have a Great Day

Yea, I saw how your website works the other day and it is cool... Looking through them that one made by EA, Rail Simulator, looks like it is the best! I wonder if my computer could even handle it though, LOL...
Doing some research, here is their website: http://www.railsimulator.com/
It looks like no store sells it around here, although Target has it on their website as an online only item... I would rather buy it from them than someone in Singapore ;)
EDIT: Take a look at all of these UP screenies! There is no way my computer would like this game :(

I would definitely be interested in a train sim.. apparently they make a package for one of my favorite mountain lines in Switzerland, the Rhatische Bahn. I'm definitely going to check this out.

That is a good idea Casey-Jones. Starting your own business to save money. :thumbsup: As soon as I find a job I will order from you. :)
Have you found any cool shareware to get a feal for it?
The yellow print on your site has to go. :D Can't read it.

Ya that's amazon. The site is new. I'm just learning how to really monetize it. Thought Amazon would be cool.
What browser r u using ? looks fine in IE.
Consider it gone.
Its not shareware Sorry. The whole set up costs about $120 but I figure I will save 10x that.
My project will be a never ending endeavor.
You can offer just about anything.

Crud. Now I can't find what it was that was hard to read. :(
All I remember is that it was in yellow with a yellow background. :(
I have made sites for myself and others in the past, and I must say that you did a great job!!! :thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup:
This may sound stupid, but this is not my computer and I have no idea what browser the owner is using. :rolleyes:
Since I got back into trains I have not put my PC back together and this thing has issues. :rolleyes:
Got to crash. Peace out...

Microsoft Train Simulator is very good simular (and not a computer hog). And there is lots of (free) add-ons available for it.. just about every road.. Locomotives, rolling stock, routes, scenery add-ons graphics are readily available. Realism is excellent. Lots & free add-ons available at www.train-sim.com.
