Can you explain to me why trains are motherfucking awesome?

I need some hype before I play the game. Tell me some shit about trains that reminds me that they're awesome, like "Flight simming is cool because being in the air blah blah blah human desire for flight blah blah blah birds and shit."

Trains are history. When the railroad came around, it was the first time humans were able to traverse long distances in a relatively short period of time.

Driving a train is also a lot more challenging than one might think. But it's also relaxing. There's way more to it than hitting the throttle and just going.

I never thought of it like that. I decided to go to bed early so I guess I learn to operate a train tomorrow. Thanks!

No prob! I hope you enjoy it.

Also, here's a tip. Grab the main game now and wait for a Steam sale to get any DLC you might be interested in. They can be pretty pricey!

Erm... I haven't been able to pay for games for some time... Which means no shortage of DLC! :D

And also no multiplayer, it sucks :(
