Rating: - OK......
I like TRS2004 alot. I am hoping to get TRS2006 soon. One problem on my game though.... The water in the driver and surveyor modules does not reflect the sky. Nor does it look too 3D. I have tried both DirectX 9.0c and openGL but I guess there is just nothing I can do about it. My graphics card is an Intel 82845G card and the TRAINZ system requirments said you need a NVIDIA GEFORCE chip. If anyone can help,please write back daily.-(...),Age 11, "the train geek"
Rating:  - There's a better alternative!
All TRAINZ railroad simulators are based on model railroading, NOT real-world railroading, a fact that becomes obvious as one becomes familiar with the simulator. For example, zooming out reveals that the "terrain" consists of a narrow strip of territory--like a model railroad layout--rather than a unified simulated world. In my opinion, Microsoft's Train Simulator, even though outdated, is a much better product and certainly costs much less.
TRAINZ requires an immense amount of processor ... Read More
Rating:  - Great Train Simulator and a fantastic value!
First, let's understand what we're looking at here. TRS 2004 is an advanced 3D Railroad simulation, which can take a decent amount of computing horsepower to provide an enjoyable experience. Those who don't bother to read the system recommendations and requirements on the box or on Auran's Website (such as those amazed that a "graphics card" is needed) will probably be somewhat disappointed when their 5 year old computer doesn't run it well. Most people with a fairly new, fairly powerful computer ... Read More
Rating: - Total Failure
It came on two CDs and you eventually discover that the second CD holds the software which is needed to fix the bugs on the first.
You also need a graphics card or equivalent.
I do not have the graphics capability so although it appeared to load it would not run.
I shall give it away or bin it.

Our 6 year old son has been FASCINATED with trains for a few years now (like most boys) and he has played other train software programs. However, when he found TRAINZ on google and liked what he saw . . . we purchased this program for his enjoyment. Well, I gotta tell ya, setting it up was alittle on the "higher" learning curve but now . . . we cannot get him off of this program. AMAZING for us to watch him (6yo) paint the train (Paint Shed), create the track layout including town, cars, and run ... Read More
