Train Sim World® 2: Rapid Transit is an all new First-Person Simulator that brings to life the experience of driving rapid transit commuter passenger trains on one of Germany’s most popular S-Bahn railways. Take control of the sleek DB BR 1442 ‘Talent 2’ and transport passengers along the S-Bahn S2-Line through the historic and picturesque city of Leipzig. The new generation BR 442 ‘Talent 2’ comes to Train Simulator, perfect for you to experience on the Munich – Garmisch-Partenkirchen route. Built by Bombardier and introduced in 2009, the successor to the ‘Talent’ was put in to service by Deutsche Bahn to replace older EMU types and loco-hauled trains on both S-Bahn and Regio services.

Control the BR 481/482 and BR477 trains along the so-called 'Stadtbahnstrecke' (urban city line) and watch all the original detailed buildings and stations of Berlin City roll by.

Created by a real 'Berliner', this add-on for Microsoft Train Simulator, is a highly detailed route right through the heart of Berlin. Not only have all the stations been recreated to the original, even the railway depots and nearly each and every building close to the line are there to be seen. Anyone who has ever taken a ride on the real Berlin S-Bahn will recognize every building. The route starts at the Ostbahnhof and leads via the stations Alexanderplatz, Friedrichstra, Tiergarten, Bahnhof Zoo, Charlottenburg, Wetskreuz, and Wannsee to Potsdam. Watch the 'Gedetniskirche' or the famous TV tower pass by. Even though the amount of objects and details is enormous, the developer has successfully taken care to ensure a smooth and fluid display when driving the trains along the route. On a route length of approx. 100 km it has for the first time been accomplished to combine a route with both a live rail for the S-Bahn as well as the common overhead contact wire for the usual trains in a single add-on. This allows simulating train service by the DB (Federal Railways) as well as the S-Bahn service.

Included as rolling stock are two S-Bahn trains, the BR477 and 481/482 as well as a regional train, the BR143. Numerous new activities introduce the train driver to a normal working day on the Berlin S-Bahn and on a regional train, guaranteeing hours of fun with this add-on for Microsoft Train Simulator. A printed english manual with lots of information about the S-Bahn and the route make this a perfect add-on for the virtual train driver.

At the time it was released, Microsoft Train Simulator was something new. Microsoft struck gold with their flight simulator series and they were hoping to do the same with thing trains. There have been a few different train sims over the years, but back in 2001 when this was originally released this was a fresh and new idea in the world of gaming.

All Aboard

I am trying to think about what the actual point of the game is. There is no what you could call a campaign here. Instead, you are tasked with doing various missions/things while you are in control of the trains. This can be coming to a stop at the right time, getting from a to b, or just hauling some freight. Trying to get the best rank on each one is what you are working towards.

Clearly, Microsoft Train Simulator is a game that is aimed at people who are train enthusiasts. I am not knocking those folks at all, but it is something I have not ever been interested in so to be fair I am sure much of the appeal of what makes this great is lost on me.

Traveling Around The World

There are a decent number of routes in the game and from the research my ignorant self did, people who are into this kind of thing seem to be happy with the level of authenticity that some of these routes have. You have routes in Japan, the USA, and the UK. I found the routes in Japan to be much more interesting and it was kind of fun to see the world go by as you were in control of one of these massing machines.You have many different trains available and from what I understand some are more accurate than others. Microsoft Train Simulator for me as someone who knows nothing about trains does have a very decent selection to drive. If you look around online, there is a dedicated community to this game that has made all kinds of interesting content. I feel if you get into the game you need to embrace that.

What Does That Button Do?

I know that simulator is in the title, but this was way harder than I thought it would be. You have a lot to take in and just keeping the train on the tracks is harder than you would think. Although, I will say when you do derail it is pretty fun and awesome. I wish the game had more personality, like actually being able to see people get on and off the train for example. The whole game has a very barebones kind of feel to it and for someone like me, I needed a bit of pizzazz to really get me invested.One thing I was shocked was so hard was stopping the train! This requires way more skill than you would think and it is not just a case of slamming on the breaks at the right time.

I must admit that Microsoft Train Simulator is not a game for me. You could write what I know about trains of the back of a postage stamp so I am clearly not the right audience for this game. Still, with that being said I do feel that there is a lot of content here. I did like driving the train through Japan and when I would nail a stop just right I felt pretty damn proud of myself.
