"Railways: Train Simulator is a nice and simplistic game, where our hand-eye coordination is put to the test. The ability to deal with several variables, in order to carry out a good completion of the level also proved to be a challenge to overcome in the final levels. In the end, we were left with the feeling that it could have been something more, but it is still a funny title to try during the dead hours."

About
Train Simulator: Doitsu Tetsudou Rhine-gawa Sagan-sen puts you in the cab of a locomotive navigating Germany's West Rhine Railway. The game uses pre-recorded video sequences to simulate train operations between Bingen and Koblenz, with split-screen views showing real-time choices and consequences. Players manage schedules, signals, and emergencies through a mix of button presses and timed decisions. The route features authentic geography and rolling stock from the mid-1990s, with branching scenarios affecting arrival times and safety ratings. This 1997 title stands out as an early experiment in interactive transportation simulation. While its FMV format feels dated by modern standards, enthusiasts praise its precise replication of Deutsche Bahn procedures and the quiet focus on operational detail. A small but dedicated community keeps archives of player strategies and technical guides. The game's niche appeal lies in its methodical pace and the satisfaction of mastering a specific slice of European rail infrastructure.
