I loved that crappy putt putt train that can barely carry the weight of 10 people. I feel so proud for my crappy putt putt train when it makes its first 1000KM journey that I torturously send it on.

And can I play in England or Europe? I always enjoyed playing in England for some reason, not sure why..

HERE are some screenies on EB Games

I promise to share plenty screenies and input playing experiences.

I have nothing to compare it to since I hadn't played any of past versions

Wait; are you saying you have not played the original Railroad Tycoon?

Features:

* It's all about the trains! - over 30 trains to use, from the primitive 0-4-0 Planet to the
Super powerful 4-6-6-4 Challenger, from the classic diesels to ultra-modern bullet trains.

* LocoBuilder - design your own steam engine from the ground up, and deploy it across your rail empire! Customize your train liveries, from color schemes to custom logos.

Both of these are good.

Screens deleted.

I knew this would happen, oh well. go to MobyGames.com for screens on railroad tycoon the original.

They don't look that memorable to me. And they all appear to be the same.

[ZargonX]

They're very memorable, DrSpike. For instance, I will now remember that Moby Games is the definitive resource for PC games.

[DrSpike]

I wonder if they have a website.

How do you guys know this?

I was replying to two questions asked, No I never played it and the reason I am purchasing it is for Sid's name, I never questioned him making or not making any previous

I was merely stating I am "Purchasing" this one because of his name

[FrostyBoy]

Yeah, but it's more fun saying this game is worthless and then watching all the fanboys squeal.

But still, I enjoy being a Fanboy if for no other reason than to hear Spikey flush us out
