I bought this product and it didn't work. I have 2GB Ram, 120GB Hard Drive, 2GHz Processor, 128MB Graphics Card, ATI 9600 Vid. Card... and the damn game won't load. I'd recomend you go play something else, like, 18 Wheels of Steel Haulin' - Pedal To The Metal version.

With Rail simulator we have a new player on a stage that was so far dominated by MSTS and by Trainz. And what a performance! Of course like in every debut there are some very small details to brush up but the overall apreciation is very very positive.
