If you ever wanted to design the layout the trains go around, with roads, trees, towns, hills.. check out this new UK game, it looks so freaking cool:
http://www.auran.com/trainz/ It's called "Trainz", and it has an editor that is AMAZING. I mean.. WOW. You need to go view the screenshots, and then, if you have the speed, download and watch the video clips--of the landmaker in action. if NWN and Dungeon Siege editors are this easy and detailed, oh MAN!

I'll have to wait until I get home to see this on DSL, but it sounds too cool, Ziroc!
I'm a huge fan of model railroading. One of the best layouts we have is at Northpark Mall in Dallas...they have a 150' by 50' model layout of the City of Dallas with all the rail lines...even a tiny VCR playing "It's a Wonderful Life" as a miniature drive-in movie with the train running past. It's one of the most professional layouts I've seen, and I've always loved watching the trains, so I know I'll love this site! Thanks,

This Sim is being made in Aussieland too! So for ONCE, you guys will get a copy first! But it just went gold, and you can order it on their website, or wait until 1st Quarter 2002 for the USA release. It's $99.00AUS and $51.29USA.
OMG.. the Editor looks SOOOOOO awesome, and yeah, Saz, I've seen some awesome layouts too, that TV screen thing sounds totally cool! THAT took some imagination to set up. I always wanted to build a huge layout, but didn't have the cash or the ROOM for a huge table. Some people put $10,000+ into their layouts.. some are just SO detailed.. and THIS looks like it'll do the same.. When you lay road in the editor, cars and trucks start riding it right away.. easy to make curbs too! Track of all kinds, bridges.. props.. EVERYTHING!!! Droollllllll!
