I took a Virgin Voyager (Class 220) from Doncaster to York, via Church Fenton. The train de-railed on me before i got to york :P so i couldn't catch a screenshot of York station.

Here are the screenshots:

It is pretty cheap, you can get an 'xplosive' (or something like that) copy from ebay for about £5. The included routes are kinda crap but good to get you started.

Rofl - I own you at flight sim.

You'd own me at train sim -kri-!

Train sim is fairly easy though, it's not like you have to check things every few minutes - Plan your route etc.. And most of all, they don't need moving off the earth, which means you don't have to land them haha :D

On a plane you have to check the fuel is correct for the amount of time flown etc etc, talk to air traffic control..

UKTrainSim is a site where you can download add-ons like routes and trains for Microsoft Train Simulator.

Signing up is free but there is a limit on how much you can download a day and there's a download queue system to save bandwidth. Unless you buy premium for £3 a month.

I get the train to Leeds irl all the time on the wakefield westgate route.

Can I ask, is this worth buying? I've never really used any simulator games before but this looks cool and I'm considering buying it, does it matter if you know nothing about it?

EDIT: On Amazon, there's two, xplosive and normal... normal is from 2002 and xplosive is 2005, what's the difference?

My dad commutes to Leeds to work.

I think it's worth buying and it doesn't matter if you know nothing about it.. there is Tutorials on the games.

XPLOSIV and the normal makes no difference. XPLOSIV is just like games by Sold-Out. XPLOSIV is cheaper than the normal and I got it for £4 from Woolworths.

It is really easy, even if you don't know anything, there are about 6 keys on your keyboard that you need to know and you'll be fine. I've uploaded the East Coast Express part 1 & 2 routes (which usually cost £15 or something like that, each) so if you buy MSTS you can download them free.
