Along with some other U.S. equipment like NJ Transit and Septa trains. ### 3/5 — Booo! *2026-08-18, version 1.0.8* Need a planet Avon account suck's ### 4/5 — Cool! *2026-08-15, version 1.0.8* This game was the first EVER game I’ve played (besides Roblox). And I was GLUED to it by the time I moved my first TRAIN! But! There is just one problem… (well two if maybe) Can you add car shaking and non-fading horns? Cause it’s kinda unrealistic.

Please and Thank you. 😘❤️ ### 3/5 — Add more derailing physics *2026-06-25, version 1.0.8* Um hi, I just want to tell u when i hit a curve the train didn’t tip over it just straight out going straight, please add more physics to that. ### 5/5 — Add like some k&l stuff *2026-06-25, version 1.0.8* Like the nkp s-2 Berkshires And the Pere Marquette berkshires And from billvu the good old daylight trains Like the gs4 and the gs2 pack with the livery’s that 4449 Wears like the bnsf sp aft and wartime black and finally bill klene’s nyc mohawk ### 5/5 — Suggestion for steam engine content *2026-05-31, version 1.0.8* Can you add clinchfield 311, the 844, 3985, 3975, all the challengers, and fef’s both 1 and 2 and even some e2’s and all British steam engines, like black 5s, b12s, Atlantic c1s, and so much more and maybe even add ghost trains and even Thomas and his friends even the oc’s and the rolling stock and a c62 and brown Japanese coaches and don’t forget the lnwr claughtons ### 5/5 — you should add dash 8s *2026-05-27, version 1.0.8* really good game and i have some ideas: C40-8s would be really cool. C30-7s with accurate horns. ### 3/5 — The game is great But there are some bugs. *2026-05-25, version 1.0.8* The game is fun the locomotives are great.please add the ICE 3 or 2. The bugs are some what annoying.There is a specific bug that when the second car/locomotive goes over the switch it instantly get thrown and takes other cars with it.The other bug is that when I deleted the game and got it back,I hit (restore purchases) it would not give me my trains back.I bought a Milwaukee road f7A(full train),BNSF locomotive,and leihigh valley heritage locomotive.please fix these bugs,Can I please have my trains back soon.Thank You! ### 5/5 — 🤩 *2026-05-24, version 1.0.8* This game is great!it would me amazing if we could have some more British trains!possibly trains like the class 220-or class 800,but still amazing.ive been playing this game dor ages and it’s so fun! ### 4/5 — How do I get it back and fix it *2026-05-24, version 1.0.8* 1-2 years ago I bought some new content and 3 days ago I turned on my iPad and I cannot redownload the content I purchased I have tried everything. ### 5/5 — Complaint of an issue and requests for some new routes, and updates in the future, & cab view fixes. *2026-05-22, version 1.0.8* I really love this game because not only am I able to drive trains, but I am able to edit routes like “City and Country USA” in my own image, as well as get new stuff from the new routes, and or sessions I downloaded, and being able to create my own sessions. One thing that can plague this App (although I have found a work around it) is that it used to be on a Semi Annual Basis for me that the app would malfunction in away where the loading just stalls in away where I lose access to it no matter how many times I open and close it. The work around I have found is to temporarily “Offload” (not Delete or Remove) the app on my settings for a few minutes, then re-upload it. Then after you finished re-uploading the app, you can regain access to it, and you won’t lose all of the stuff you did on it. (Just as long as you have managed to save it in the “Free” Content file, and/or don’t actually delete or remove the app). That being said, on another note, I have seen and did sessions on the newest (more realistic) routes Trainz 2 just got, such as “Cajon Pass”, “Along the Truckee River”, “Through the Rockies” (Canada), and “Sand Patch Grade”, etc. Although, I would be extremely thrilled if N3V Games would eventually create a route for Sacramento/Roseville, California, and/or a route of Sherman Hill, like between Cheyenne and Laramie, WY. Or even make their own duplicate version of Trainz 3 “Centrella Subdivision” (Which is one of my most favorite routes in Trainz 3 IPad ever). Also, I do hope that despite all of the newest locomotives added to Trainz 2, I have noticed that while UP, BNSF, NS, CN has SD70 ACe’s, I would like CSX and Canadian Pacific to have SD70 ACe’s, and to also include SD80 and SD90’s, as well as AC6000CW’s, and for Trainz 2 to eventually have ES44AC’s for Union Pacific. And for Trainz 2 to soon add UP Northern 844, Challenger 3985, Big Boy 4014, and N&W 2-8-8-2 and 2-6-6-4 Y6A and B locomotives. Another troubling issue is that with some of the newest diesels (SD700 ACe’s, C44’s, ES44’s, even some EMD F7A’s) have this irritating feature of where the cab view position is much too high above and/or moved much too forward than it should appropriately be. If that too can be fixed, that would be great? Also, in future United States routes that are Trainz 2 recreated versions of U.S. locations, if the real thing includes Defect Detectors (especially in modern times), please include them to the routes. ### 5/5 — Glitch with DLC *2026-05-22, version 1.0.8* The download station is broken… There is a glitch with the dlc when I try to download content I purchased for my game. When I try to download said content, it says “Cannot connect to host” Please can you fix this? Thank you. ### 4/5 — Fix this *2026-05-21, version 1.0.8* It all started when I got the route conrail Lincoln 2nd. It did not install properly. And as of right now I have deleted and reinstalled the app and there was trouble, even though I’m connected to the internet. (There is nothing wrong with my connection) ### 3/5 — STILL NO UPDATE!!! USELESS AND LAZY!!!! *2026-05-16, version 1.0.8* I asked your team to fix a issue with the game, there’s a UK route that got released which is a sequel to Colchester - Harwich, this time it runs through Ipswich, idk why it won’t show up on the store, SO WEIRD AND STUPID, THIS ISSUE NEEDS TO BE LOOKED INTO! Yet nothing has been done about it, do I need to uninstall the game and redownload it, or I’ll just buy the route itself, boring content again, but who cares? Good day. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Fixed but still bugs *2026-08-28, version 1.0.8* I spent three days making a route and I used the track straightening tool and it ruined the whole thing.and there is no way to undo it.and I can’t spawn any track side things.I got my trains back though.How was this the best sim from 2011-2021 sonyun chip💔 ### 1/5 — It’s terrible *2026-08-02, version 1.0.8* The free content is not downloading ### 1/5 — TERRIBLE GAME NOW *2026-07-27, version 1.0.8* I tried to download my UK stuff, but it cancelled container day! ### 1/5 — They are lying *2026-07-18, version 1.0.8* Game not realistic.

I cannot play game! ### 1/5 — Worst sim ever *2026-05-16, version 1.0.8* I can’t even use anything. It’s glitchy, the graphics are terrible, you can’t use the train. Fix this because it drives me crazy and I already hate the game and I’ve only played it once. ### 1/5 — Problem *2026-04-06, version 1.0.8* The intersecting road on my route is invisible ### 1/5 — Bugged tracks *2026-02-26, version 1.0.8* FIX THE TRACK RIGHT NOW ### 1/5 — MY TRAINS KEEP DISSAPEARING *2026-01-31, version 1.0.8* WHY DO MY TRAINS KEEP DISAPPEARING ITS SO ANNOYING FIX THIS NOW ### 1/5 — It sucks *2026-01-25, version 1.0.8* When I deleted the game because it wouldn’t load when I re installed it I lost all my stuff and can’t get it back ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Add Amtrak horizon fleet *2026-09-01, version 1.0.8* Thanks for the amfleets. Would love some horizon coaches as well. Maybe also some VIA LRCS. ### 5/5 — Wow just so much you can do *2026-08-31, version 1.0.8* Best game ever you can even create your own railroad. I’m just saying you should buy this game right now. It’s so good. There’s different trains that you can buy and it has so much good graphics. even some trains are even real. ### 5/5 — This game is great *2026-08-13, version 1.0.8* I love how there is actively new content being added that is high quality although this game has aged I would say it’s still worth getting you can create your own maps and overall its a good game however after a certain amount of detail is added the game bugs out and barely loads much of the map and is very glitchy if you could fix that issue then that would be great overall 4 stars good game ### 5/5 — Let us get the new content without entering our account *2026-08-09, version 1.0.8* I love the game so much but I want the new content but my parents will get mad so pls remove the account requirement pls pls pls and add new trains to the game Such as old trains or subways or double decker trains ### 5/5 — Very good! *2026-08-05, version 1.0.8* I suggest these stuff: Add back winter in the alps. Put another horn on the tgv thalys and the white tgv. It does not sound well. Add SP SD40-2/SD40T-2s and a Kodachrome livery too. Make a route and add Cab forward, 844, 3985, And the other big boy version. Can you remove the error when I go in and it kicks me out? ### 5/5 — I really love this game *2026-08-02, version 1.0.8* This game was my favorite throughout my childhood there’s so many trains although it’s missing something and it’s Thomas the train characters I want them to be in the game and free also so I can buy them and play with them :) ### 5/5 — Love this game *2026-07-30, version 1.0.8* I love the trains in this game ### 5/5 — Please add more Amtrak things *2026-07-23, version 1.0.8* The game is 10/10 i wish you creators could add Amtrak northeast corridor route from sunnyside yard in manhattan ny to phillidepha 30 street station with Amtrak engines like acs64 aem-7 hhp8 and e60 and maybe viewliner sleepers and new Aclea 2 and new Airo sets it be good route to build there’s room for freight locals and high speed trains if it good idea than go for it ### 5/5 — neat *2026-07-13, version 1.0.8* good game ### 5/5 — More trains and good game! *2026-07-09, version 1.0.8* Amazing game.no ads but a problem.i can’t download content from the free content store.even tho i have an account.also make some of the trains and routes free since there’s too much content to buy and add more trains and British trains and diesel and electric But game is really good! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
