Hi everyone. I'm really sort of new to this whole railroad thing. I'm in college and I live in Chestnut Hill in Philadelphia. I ride the SEPTA regional rail system many times a week, and at my school whenever someone needs info about how to get anywhere on SEPTA they come to me. I've recently discovered that I'm becoming more and more interested in trains.
Anywho... I'd like to play a train simulation game on my computer. From what I've read on these forums it seems as though the general standard is icrosoft's Train Simulator. I also understand that there are many add-ons such as different trains and routes. I would like to know what routes and trains come with this game. I'm mostly interested in commuter passenger trains right now (like the ones used in Philadelphia, the Silverliners and Budds) and the Regional rail routes, and possible NJT's Northeast corridor route and trains. Any basic help at all would be appreciated! Thanks!
