So does anyone have any idea when train Sim 2 will be in the market for me to get my paws on? The story I've been reading is this:

Microsoft takes over Train Sim 2

UK-based developer Kuju will hand over development responsibilities to Microsoft for the sequel to Train Simulator.

According to a Dow Jones report, Kuju Entertainment has signed a deal with Microsoft that will end its role in developing Train Simulator 2. Microsoft will take over development of the project, which is designed to greatly increase the level of detail and realism in the 3D train-driving simulation series. The move is a part of restructuring efforts at Kuju that will have the company focus on console and wireless projects.

Well then will there be another company at some time in the near future who will answer the call of millions? ... and that is to make another more advanced train simulator.
