Minor Bugs

We need more American steam! Good game nonetheless, some sounds don’t match the locomotive they are on but A for Effort!

Store doesn’t work, otherwise fine

The content store doesn’t load, but other than that, it’s really good. Very detailed and realistic

JNR(Japan) steam locomotives

Trainz Simulator 3 don’t have any Japan steam locomotives, and that make me sad, I’m wish they add them in for past JNR days, enough dub I’m am an American, I’m like all steam locomotives include overseas steam locomotives, so please, pretty please, add JNR steam locomotives to Trainz Simulator 3, and if you not know them, respect research them by their class names from C62 to other JNR steam locomotives, and I’m will gives 5 stars

When is the new 'Service Pack 2 (SP2) coming to TS3 mobile 📱 for world building tools? 🧰

This game, is pretty good, despite it's flaws and issues, this game has never disappointed me, apart from content with hardly new DLC’s like:
- Kickstarter County 2 (KSC2) Mission Pack 1 (winter edition)
- Bavaria/Bayern: Immenstadt-Oberstdorf (not much choice of trains to use in this route, apart from the DB BR 633 & DB BR 218 diesel locomotives)
- BNSF Raton Pass | Trinidad to Raton (same DLC's from other routes like Inyo Mountains and the Badgers Pass: The Western Branch route)
- Badgers Pass: The Eastern Branch (again re-used content but comes with new Superliner Phase 7 pack, so I’ll give this one a 8.1/10)
- Eifel Railway: Bitburg-Trier (again re-used assets)
- Brocken Railway (Brockenbahn) Winter edition
- ProTrain: Inyo Lake 1 (ok, but not 100% perfect)
