Not too sure what to think of the HUD. It seems easier to use for some locomotives than others. I suppose a combination of keyboard and mouse control works well.
Are anybody experiencing any of these issues?
1.) No steam chest pressure bar indicator.
2.) The HST no longer seems to hold brake pressure, forcing a full service brake application.

There's a sticky "known errors" thread at the top of the section. I think you'll find both problems are in fact listed in there.

Hi all,

I am thinking of getting this but the first one as i want the manuals that come with the box, if i did get the first one i could upgrade to the second one, i like a box with manuals rather than reading a PDF. But in terms of differences are there any? For example the routes that come with the program, Oxford to Paddington etc.
Oh and you still need an internet connection too right? I need a firewall for Vista 64bit anyone know of any?


Thanks

Nothing wrong with the one that comes with W7 in my opinion - been using it for months now without any threats (also using M$ Essentials for the AV protection). Pretty sure it is the same for Vista - but try Goole'ing 'vista firewall' and see what you get!

I hate to say this but we need some electric modern day 2010 routes and some Swiss ones, the road simulators are more up to date than the train sims. Again i hate to say but we need some modern trains in this simulator that is supposedly for everybody.
