What workshop scenarios? As others say looks nice (tho not great) but is a poor performer. I find G-Trax generally unimpressive - Smokebox makes better locos by far.

BUGS (as of 8/2017):
  • No Alerter Sound in cab
  • Engine sound just vanishes over 900 RPM (returns once RPM drops below 900)

It's sad that the alerter doesn't SOUND in the cab. It makes it easy to miss until CLACK! Brake Application...

That aside, while the missing graphics (copyright issue) are a bummer, the trains sure do look the part - and it's a nice addition to the LA-San Diego route.

It's a good idea, and the audio directions and "ribbing" by fellow (read AI) engineers makes it very engaging UNTIL.....

Until you go "inside" and find the cab view is a backwards SW7 which is entirely different from a Class 08.

It's like plaing a Formula 1 racing sim, and when you go to first person view you look like your sitting backwards on a motor cycle.

I'll keep it, but only because it was 75% off. I donated to this, then changed my mind thinking they'd never deliever on the high sounding promises. I made the right choice. Load up C&O and it looked quite nice, then a car drove right though my train like it was a ghost... Tried the Milwalkee route - looks like a cartoon (IE old assets NOT updated) Bad enough you can get old chunky cartoony assets on the Download Station, but as a PAYWARE ADDON!?!?! Come on...

At $18.74 this mixed bag of lovely and laughable is OK - it sure ain't worth no $71.99 (the full retail as of this writing)

Just a little "Buyer Beware":

This game is available on Android, iOS and other places, however *tables* purchased on one platform do NOT cross over to other platforms.

So, I bought Taxi on the Android version, but I can't play it in the Windows version without BUYING IT AGAIN.

You can guess how I feel about that.

I bought this some time ago, and I have to say that it's showing it's age. 3D modeled passengers walk beside out of scale "billboard" people (2D sprites). Several included rolling stock pieces have the look of a model with a photo slapped on the side.

The most damning thing however is that the included E7 has an issue with it's Dynamic Brake were if you apply it at all the whole game crashes to the desktop. It has been this way since I got the route (In fact that lead me to defect to Trainz for some years - based on the idea that such an obvious flaw was the last straw), so it has been that was since TS2013.

Now I find out that G-TraX made this, and you can't contact them for support even... Waste of money.

Figured out a bug fix, turns out it's just a TYPO...
