I’ve bought Auran’s Train collection which has the Trainz Ultimate Collection Railroad simulator in it. Does anyone know how to work this thing. I’ve tried everything from pushing every button on this key board to swearing at the cat but I still can’t figure this thing out. Does anyone know where I could get info on how to work this sim? It looks like a lot of fun but maybe I’m expecting this to do more then it does. Thanks for any help.

Congrats, Juby4Life, study a minute, and you’ll find quite and experience. Trainz UTC and TRS2004, are the bomb! http://www.auran.com/TRS2004/default.htm , is a link to Planet Auran, and you need to register your serial number, which will grant you a KUID (Koolthing Unique IDentifier) number, and the rest is there for your experience. I have just recieved my TrainzSimulator2004, from http://www.interactcd.com/ , for $33.95USD, which incl. postage, and took two days to recieved, through PayPal. Use the Support link to access info to review to get started, and the Support Forum to find answers to your questions. The Auran group are friendly and helpful. You will find much emphasis on TRS2004, however lots of members use Trainz UTC exclusively. I have many posts on this forum http://www.trains.com/community/forum/ , which you may access by clicking on my name, in this entry, and reviewing my posts. Your program includes a senario of “Blue Sky Steel.” It is a game of running a Chicago Burlington & Quincy EMD SW7, doing switching chores (“shunting”) at the steel mill. It’s an interactive game, and you recieve a score, and will give you a rundown on how things work. Be sure to check DCC controls, as cab controls require much knowledge on how to run a locomotive. Tinker around with Surveyor, however don’t make any permanent changes to your routes. You may build your own railroad layout, habitat, empire, and there are thousands of objects to download throughout the world. We’re over a hundred-thousand registered users strong, adding ave. one-thousand +/- per week, so hang in there, and remember, Rome GA wasn’t built in a day! Enjoy Your Ultimate Railroading Experience! ACJ.
