Summary: Not for young Children 2008-03-31
Comment: I bought this for my 6 year-old son because he's a HUGE Thomas/Lionel fan. He loves to play in the "sandbox mode" because nothing costs. I'm not sure that he knows exactly what he's doing, but he loves it. This game isn't very easy to play, but my son absolutely loves it.

Summary: stuck at the station 2007-10-02
Comment: I cant get into this game. I think it is missing an understandable tutorial. I hate reading directions to games- so therefore I dont play it.

Summary: Could have been really good 2007-02-14
Comment: Like another reviewer said, the game is at it's best in Sandbox mode. The "Campaign mode" (5 or 6 different ones) are really tutorial scenarios. They aren't really challenging but you do learn some concepts. The "FreePlay mode" is sort of like the Sandbox mode but with a set amount of start money and high or low prices depending on your difficulty setting. Either make it a working Railroad or spiral into debt. Graphics are decent but some of the goods are represented by some very small icons that are barely recognizable. The overall concept is a bit like the recent Sid Meier's Railroads! game. There's a tycoon element to the game play while in FreePlay mode. You can buy businesses in towns and gain more mail income or passenger income etc. There's a research element to develop new trains. You get use to the interface after a bit but they could have been more user friendly. The manual is very light on info which seems to be the usual in DS games. The game does have a built in library of Advisers which is useful on occasion.
Overall, I think the whole package could have used another six months of development and it could have been a really great little game. As is, it's a playable and sometimes fun game.

Summary: Was expecting better. 2007-01-15
Comment: Sandbox mode is the only mode worth playing, other than that, it's just kinda boring after you get all the routes and track built. The trains look very nice, and very detailed, but it really loses a lot after about 20 min. Rent this game before buying.

Summary: fun for train lovers 2007-01-09
Comment: We bought this for our 10 yr old daughter and she really enjoys it. At first she was frustrated trying to lay the track but we quickly realized the icon was there to do it and she off and running....fun way for any train lovers to build a system.
