Version: Rule the Rail 1.1
"All Train Lovers jump on board because this program is fun to see!"
Pros: Pros
Excellent 3D GRAPHICS - Love the Trains!
It is worth the $14.00 USD they ask for, Excellent quality and thought put into this program!
Cons: Yes you have to read the short manual (This sounds kind of small but this is a major flaw and is probably costing some users to quit early on!) The tutorial is a huge help!
- Memory Hog Lags, sometimes if runninng a while.
PS I thought this was going to be more like a tycoon mogul style game! If they added that style of game play I�d be addicted forever! PS had trouble with one of my 2 XP�s I tested on. Not sure why but I think it is a graphics issue.

Version: Rule the Rail 1.1
Pros: It seems like a really good program with the potential to do some fun things
Cons: There are no instructions and no tutorial. Clicking the Help tab yields only an advertisement to buy the expansion packs. I figured out how to do a few simple things like lay tracks, but there is no explanation of how to do other things, like make the trains move. I lost patience after 45 minutes of trying to figure out the basics and gave up. Maybe someone with some knowledge of the way model trains work or some experience with the interface for this game would have more luck.
