There is a whole Forum lower down here devoted to MSTS on Vista - I suggest you have a read through it.

Lots of steam and early diesels from 1959 to 1963.

I am using Vista Ultimate 32bit and except for the usual problems, it is now working well. I would stick to 32bit if you have the choice, there is no real value using 64bit on a home workstation, especially given the driver and application issues you may encounter running 64bit.

If you do a search for "64bit" and restrict it to the MSTS and Vista forum, you'll find threads that confirm that MSTS will run on 64bit Vista.

And read the sticky thread at the top of the forum. It'll save you having to ask a few more questions.
