### 4/5 — 良作だが、近鉄ATSは厳しすぎる！

*2026-06-05*

鉄道の運転は、制限速度を守るのが安全運転のひとつ！ですが、制限速度を超えたら基本は制限速度以下まで減速しますが、近鉄のATSは厳しすぎます！
制限速度を超えたら、ATS作動。非常ブレーキがかかり、強制的に停車させられるのではなく、指令から許可が出るのを待つのに時間がかかり、ゲームにとってはイライラします！それだけでなく、信号機関係などの速度照査も存在し、決められた速度以下で走行しなければならず、速度制限が細かくなるところもあります！
また、駅停車時のオーバーランについても同様で停止位置が4メートルを超えると判断した場合もATS作動し、バックするまで指令からの許可のための時間もかかってしまいます！念のため、設定の「ヘルプ」をONにしておきましょう！そうすることで、パターン接近時に警告音を鳴らしてくれます！
まとめとして、近鉄のATSは厳しすぎることと、細かい速度制限が多数存在するので、速度調整が重要になります！ちなみに、スコアについてATS作動中は非常ブレーキによる大減点と、緊急停車や指令待ちによる遅延の減点につながります！速度計と制限速度をよく見て安全運転を心がけましょう！

### 5/5 — 暗红色有点不对眼药水是吗是真的好好看的这期

*2026-02-14, version 1.6.1*

暗花丛间飞升至空中花园之一时也就算结束

### 4/5 — 車両点

*2026-01-30, version 1.6.1*

ゲーム自体はやりがいがあっていいが、8A系や19200系の運用を出して欲しいのと、近郊型は、幕とか少しどうにかして欲しいが、特急型の車両の絵を増やして欲しい30000系、22000系、22600系、12400系、12410系、12600系全てが近鉄22000系になってる

### 5/5 — 神

*2025-11-29, version 1.6.1*

とても面白いと思いますやってて楽しいですこのゲームの1    2を無料うにしてくれたら嬉しいです
でもすごく面白いと思います

### 3/5 — 新型一般車両

*2025-11-11, version 1.6.1*

新型一般車両の8A系も追加して欲しいです。阪神の車両も近鉄の9820系みたいになっていて、車両番号だけ阪神仕様になっているのが気になります。大阪線車両も2410系や2610系や5210系も追加して欲しいです。お願いします。

### 5/5 — 何も言うことはまったくございません。感動でございます。

*2025-10-14*

遂に、このトレインドライブATSにも、近畿日本鉄道バージョンが、登場するとは、驚きましたよ。特急、ひのとり号、しまかぜ号なども、ありますので、すごいとしか言いようがございません。モーター音や、ドアの音、ブレーキ音も、リアルで、これはもう、「すごい」としか、言いようがございません、また、運転指令の声も、「こちらは近鉄奈良司令」って言っているのでいやぁ、トレインドライブ atsさすがですね！あと、なんと言いますか、大和西大寺駅とか、鶴橋駅とか、近鉄奈良駅とか、大阪難波駅とか再現されているのでいやぁ、すごいです。どんどんどんどんどんどんどんどんどんどんどんどんどんどんどんどんどんどんどんどんどんどんどんどんどんどんどんどんどんどんどんどんどんどんどんどんどんどんどんどんどんどんどんどんどんどんどんどんどんどんどんどんどんどんどんどんどんどんどんどんどんどんどんどんどんどんどんどんどんどんどんどんどんどんどんどんどんどんどんどんどんどんどんどんどんどんどんどん、作ってくださいね♪

### 4/5 — 太难了

*2025-10-07, version 1.6.1*

动不动就紧急制动，限速也太多了

### 5/5 — 改善してほしいところがあります。

*2025-10-03, version 1.6.1*

ドアは効果音は鳴ってもforwardで外から見ると開け閉めされていない、回送に人が乗っている、Freeで奈良線難波線以外の路線を運転すると、奈良線からある程度離れた所で線路しかない状態になるところを改善して下さい。

### 5/5 — 何を言っもムダですよ。

*2025-09-17*

この運営は一切プレイヤーの声すら聞かないし、アップデート込みの課金をさせられて結局活動もしないし詐欺運営です。しかし11月に、Railプロ近鉄が発売されます。このアプリにもある奈良線も収録されており、8A系が運転出来るのです。また京都線には30000系特急、名古屋〜上本町を80000系ひのとりが運転出来るみたいです。
もちろん車内放送ありです。このアプリは車内放送がありません。
発売を期待したいと思います。

### 5/5 — お願いします

*2025-09-13, version 1.6.1*

若江岩田と八戸ノ里の間のカーブで75km/hの速度制限がありますが、現実ではその区間は100km/hで走る区間です。現実の奈良線では、遅れているとき、八戸ノ里から東花園で100kn/hを出し、遅れを回復させるので、制限速度を無くして欲しいです。
