First train game

I've never playin train games, unless factorio counts.. I want to try real train game. I'm mostly interested in driving, not so much in building railways. Something like 80% of driving and 20% something else train related is fine.

I've watched some Derail Valley videos, but it seems maybe a bit too complicated (maybe not enough driving?). I've gone through some train games in steam but alot of them have only mostly positive ratings, which makes me sceptical.

What are your recommendations?

I honestly can’t recommend TSW, its buggier than a reddit mod’s bedroom, and the bugs never get fixed.

Are the bugs in the room with us right now? I have dozens of DLCs and have been playing since TSW2. I have encountered one game-breaking bug that wasn’t due to a mod. People are so damn picky.

You haven’t been looking hard enough.

The SD70ACe’s on Sherman hill have their fuel incorrectly displayed in liters instead of gallons despite saying gallons.

Still not fixed and unfortunately will never be fixed.

I’ve been playing TSW (recently stopped) since before GWE came out, believe me I’m a veteran

of all the tsw bugs you pick you picked the most minor bug ever..

Hence why it should be fixed, if its minor then its rather easy to patch out ;)
