can you have some pics of the cab of the dash9
Guest 03-Feb-2008 12:32
Hi Rick!
Very nice work, those weather effects and reflections look impressive. Are they real-time generated or pre-rendered? In any case, they look great.
Jesse Tadgell 19-Jan-2008 16:16
so it said on the website coming in 2009...thought id let ya know
mike 15-Jan-2008 22:33
do you know if the train will plow the snow in front of it and also will the windshield wipers autially work
Jesse Tadgell 12-Jan-2008 00:20
first post in 2008
Jesse Tadgell 25-Dec-2007 20:46
rick on your blog it said that the (great looking)NS dash 9 was the first norfolk southern locomotive, but isn't it the second? it all looking great too

question: in the first real photos given there was a NS gp38 in it, on some route. now, will that be included, and is it for the BNSF of NS?
Stephen R 24-Dec-2007 02:35
is this gonna have the NS Piedmont Division
Guest 20-Dec-2007 14:12
PLEASE UPDATE YOUR BLOG!!!!
Jesse Tadgell 07-Dec-2007 00:27
hey rick

1. get facebook
2. update your blog
3. nice shots
4. can there be any CN stuff?
5. we need a movie
darien 05-Dec-2007 04:23
can you included amtrak california and amtrak cascades trains and amtrak superliner phases 1 2 3 and 4 and the new phase and the amtrak california zephyr and amtrak empire builder & and amtrak sunset limited trains i the new train simulator 2
Rick Selby 04-Dec-2007 22:14
Correct - the cab interior depicts a Norfolk Southern SD70. The exterior model is obviously a BNSF Dash 9. We are still working on the SD70 exterior and Dash 9 interior.

-Rick
Guest 02-Dec-2007 20:32
I believe the cabview in TrainSimulator_New_7.jpg belongs to the NS SD70 that was pictured in one of the original press release shots.
Jesse Tadgell 01-Dec-2007 18:50
Any CN/CP/VIA Rail in the new game?

And, in image "new 7". the windows are up and down, but in "new 8", the are the regular dash 9 windows, sideways. this is probaly for the game, so you can see better, but...
Ryan 01-Dec-2007 15:05
I can't recall who it was (either rick or mike), but one of them did confirm in a post on the train-sim.com forums that there would be a multiplayer function in the new game.
Guest 01-Dec-2007 10:37
A lot have asked for a release date, so I might as well join them :)

What the ETA for this in Austrlia?

Matt
Barry 30-Nov-2007 23:39
Pics look great so far. The shot with fog in it looks dead on.

Also has anyone seen any official postings regarding multiplayer?

thanks.
JASON 30-Nov-2007 03:16
i heard some of the original msts routes will be featured as well. i was told marias pass would be on the new sim. i would love to see cajon pass,tehachapi,and stevens pass modeled on MSTS2
Guest 29-Nov-2007 15:09
I can help with pictures and drawings.
Johan Pretorius 29-Nov-2007 15:08
1)Are there going to be Steam Locomotives as well?
2)Any South African content? SAR/Spoornet trains? Regards,
Johan.
darien 26-Nov-2007 04:36

Brian Carothers 23-Nov-2007 16:22
Dude.......I don't what to say on this one, so here goes.........FRRRRRRREAKIN SWEEEEET!!! GOD!! I wait to get my hands on this one!
Guest 23-Nov-2007 11:56
I didn't notice any points in any of the pics. How realistic will they be?
Lazy Norhunt 23-Nov-2007 09:48
If you have any pics from Maglev or any Norwegian trains, please post:p

Will it come before summer next year?
Guest 23-Nov-2007 06:34
best MS sim yet to come
Guest 21-Nov-2007 22:11
It' msts now and msts2 forever more! Thanks microsoft looks awesome too me!
tmaxim 19-Nov-2007 08:00
Finally something really good coming our way. What to do until this baby is released to the world... Looks like this is the one we have all been waiting for. Hoping for a teaser video for xmas.
Guest 18-Nov-2007 16:26
Beautiful in-cab shots, love the reflections! Keep 'em coming!
Guest 17-Nov-2007 22:53
How about a video of progress so far for Christmas?
phil 12-Nov-2007 23:32
Can We Transfer MSTS 1 ace. and s. formats to MSTS@? HUH!?!
SIMON PENZER (UK) 11-Nov-2007 18:05
Looks a great improvement on MSTS 1
Any update on a UK release date yet ?

guest 05-Nov-2007 15:40
hey is there any chance there might be an es44ac in ts 2
Guest 05-Nov-2007 04:11
The public will never be satisfied, no matter what MSTSII beholds.
Guest 05-Nov-2007 01:14
Haven't seen a curve with super-elevation yet, and that worries me.
Brandon whisler 31-Oct-2007 19:29
This game needs to be made for Windows Xp
Volker Rieck 29-Oct-2007 18:28
Rick, Volker here from Halycon on Germany. How do you integrate Third Parties? We developed the two best scored MSTS 1 AddOns ever in Germany. We would love to be involved as soon as possible in you fantastic product.
Guest 26-Oct-2007 03:25
hey all
will we be able to start up and shut down the engines this time?
Guest 24-Oct-2007 21:10
>um, will there be any CN/CP/VIA rail things?, any canadian railways?
There was a post by one of the designers, saying they would like to see one, and would try to get a Canadian route modeled.
sanddome 24-Oct-2007 20:04
Beauty may be in the eye of the graphics card....I find the pics WONDERFUL! on my machine. My wish list: old-time steam, 40lb rail on weathered ties, lots of weeds. But don't imagine for a second that I won't buy TS2 if those things aren't in the box; I'll buy one right now if MS will sell it!
Guest 24-Oct-2007 18:36
I really couldnot care lessa about graphics and such "eye-candie" cravings everybody has. I really want a simulator that is asolutely correct in every physical detail and behavior, flexible enough to be able to incorportate the most tipes of systems in worldwide railwyws (being one sustem in one Scenario/Route, or multiple ssystems in one single scenario/route) and most of all, to have the necessary tools for peripherals (raildriver...) and suport groups of comunities (such has happens with virtual airlines in MSFS... and Iam not talking just about Multi-player)
Guest 24-Oct-2007 15:14
These screens are not a qauntum leap from MTSS 1 textures...a long way to go and to be honest I havent seen anything posted that really is outstanding with the excption of the physics mentioned by the MS team
Rick Selby 24-Oct-2007 01:11
>Is MS working with Auran on this one?

No, we are not. This is an internal development effort.

-Rick Selby
Guest 23-Oct-2007 21:29
The pictures are so immaculate!
Guest 23-Oct-2007 17:31
Are these two people eff'ing out of their minds? Get your glasses on! How much more stupid can people like these two get?

>Guest 23-Oct-2007 16:30
>Is MS working with Auran on this one? No wonder Auran have been quiet recently! Looks >like ACE studios moving away from the crisp realistic style of FSX and KRS to me.

>Guest 23-Oct-2007 16:27
>looks average, and toy like

Charles 21-Oct-2007 12:01
Fantastic shots. I'm saving my money for this sim. I've totally forgotten about Rail Simulator
Guest 21-Oct-2007 01:44
um, will there be any CN/CP/VIA rail things?, any canadian railways?
Guest 20-Oct-2007 02:01
looking good, can't wait to see some steam
Bob 19-Oct-2007 13:01
Everything looks very detailed. However, with photo #2, the track ties look like they are curved as though they follow the crown of the roadbed. It may be an optical elusion, but I just thought I would mention it. Otherwise, the scenery looks great. It is good to see that BNSF is going to be represented along with some older ATSF rolling stock. Since you are telling the world that Horseshoe Curve will be featured...which most of us MSTS forum users know to be most likely a make use of the cessation of MSTS-2 a couple of years ago. What routes other than Horseshoe Curve will be included. Now that KRS is out, finding out what you guys will provide might incourage a lot of us yanks to wait for MSTS-X rather than to get started with KRS.
Jason 19-Oct-2007 04:35
Wow it has been way to long! I've practically worn out msts 1! I'll definately been in line when it comes out!
Ryan 18-Oct-2007 23:42
Beautiful looking models & ROW, though the Dash 9 would look so much better with higher quality textures (I assume these are in the works). Also, is there any solution to the hard edges that appear along either side of the tracks as they head into the distance? (I know this occurs in all other train sims that I know of, just curious).
Josh 18-Oct-2007 23:02
Wow, never thought i'd see the day when there would be a Train Simulator 2. I'm VERY VERY HAPPY with what I see and I hope to be playing someday!!
Guest 18-Oct-2007 21:49
The best game ever!
Pedro0 Aviles 18-Oct-2007 19:54
Great, great, great.

Looking forward more screenshots, and information. Indeed, I“m user fo fsX and can say now MSTS2 will be, sure, sure, plenty of success.

It happens with MSTS1, with the error that was not designed for Microsoft Teams but for kuju. Now,at last, we can enjoy a really Microsoft Train Simulator.

Thanks
Guest 18-Oct-2007 19:13
It's seeing nice and great out. Are there a relase date?
Guest 18-Oct-2007 16:52
I am oober excited about this sim! More shots please! Hope to see some NS power in the next batch :D
taurus-1047 18-Oct-2007 07:42

David Hancock 18-Oct-2007 01:13
Incredible Rick!
Guest 17-Oct-2007 23:47

Guest 17-Oct-2007 23:45
Looks great so far!
Guest 17-Oct-2007 22:18

Looks fantastic!

Keep the screenshots coming.

Any Steamers to date?
Guest 17-Oct-2007 18:06
