Not as good graphicaly as TSW5 but has much better systems to play including built in custom route and senario designers. You need to fiddle around with graphic setting to optimise your gameplay for your pc setup but thats not too bad. Be mindful not to adjust your display aspect to a setting not supported by your graphics and monitor as you will not see the game interface and have to restart the game in safe mode to readjust the settings which can be fun. Overall i like the game.

Brilliant game worth recommending especially with Armstrong Powerhouse packs if you are in the UK some routes aren't brilliant. But as I'm a Train Spotter best Train Sim out there not so much graphics but gameplay brilliant. 10/10

It's gorgeous, sometimes frustrating, but still the #1 train simulation overall due to the seemingly infinite content available, as pay- or freeware. Build your own library, create your own content, discover enhancement packs that make this game a joyful experience. It's a universe, and its vast DLC library offers something for everyone, something that's likely not to happen again in any other simulation. I have spent nearly 10,000 hours on this game and can give a definite recommendation.

The game graphics are well devised. There are plenty of routes from around the world to choose from also.

My God, I have such a love/hate relationship with this simulation. I've been playing it for years and I keep coming back for more of the same love/hate! If you are simply here for your love of all things trains, enjoy your journey! If you are someone who wants to complete the included scenarios for the accomplishment rewards, prepare to be shafted! Misplaced speed limit changes, unmarked speed limit changes, gaffs, multiple goo-gaws, shenanigans, what can be described as nothing more than lazy coding to make a buck....this game is rife with all of the above. Do I recommend it? If you simply want to run trains on familiar or not so familiar routes, yes. I wholeheartedly endorse the simulation. On the other hand, if you have that dreaded OCD bug where you need to feel a sense of completion for a job well done, prepare to be shot down. My opinion would be 100% different if DTG had simply fixed errors as they were reported but, to date, that is a no-go. Am I leaving? No. I've spent far too much money enjoying the simulation. Do I spend far too much time calling DTG every name in the book and even some names of my own creation due to the errors? A resounding YES! Your mileage may vary.
