About Train Simulator Classic

✦ AI summary

Master iconic locomotives across 400km of meticulously recreated real-world routes in the USA, Germany, and England with authentic signalling systems and licensed trains. Build and share your own railways and scenarios with comprehensive editing tools and Steam Workshop integration, creating an endless playground for railroad enthusiasts.

THE ULTIMATE RAILWAY HOBBY


The ultimate railway hobby for more than 15 years! From historic steam locomotives to modern high-speed and heavy freight trains, and routes around the world, Train Simulator Classic is the simulation made by railfans for railfans.

A WORLD OF RAILWAYS


Train Simulator Classic takes you to three countries, with more than 400km/250 miles of detailed real-world routes included. Drive heavy freight trains on the USA’s challenging Saluda Grade, move passengers and freight along Germany’s historic Hochrheinbahn, and take passengers from the English Channel ports towns of Dover and Ramsgate to the capital city, London.

LICENSED TRAINS


Take the controls of trains which are officially licensed by the operating companies. Drive variations of Southeastern’s Class 465, 375 and 395 on Chatham Main Line, take Deutsche Bahn’s BR111 and BR189 from Konstanz to Villingen, and negotiate Saluda Grade in Norfolk Southern’s EMD SD40-2s and GP35s. Get to grips with realistic signalling systems, authentic brake controls and lifelike weather conditions as you become an expert driver through 25 career-mode scenarios, or use Quick Drive to drive the trains you like, wherever you like.

BUILD AND REBUILD


Use the Train Simulator Editor to build living worlds with comprehensive tools. Create your own dream railway or scenario and start a service with your favourite locomotive. With full Steam Workshop support you can share your creations with other railfans around the world, or browse through the thousands of community creations already available to try out.

Please Note: The Train Simulator interface is localised into English, French, German, Italian, Polish, Russian, Simplified Chinese and Spanish. Localisation on locos and route content varies depending on the developer who created it.

What Steam players say

Recent verbatim reviews from Steam — separate from playze.io community reviews below.

✦ AI summary

Train Simulator draws passionate fans who love the depth of train authenticity and extensive third-party content, with some praising the classic version's superior physics and nostalgic appeal. However, players consistently complain about the high cost of DLC, performance and graphics issues on some PCs, and the game feeling outdated in its presentation and pricing for modern standards.

Not recommended Oct 1, 2026
Barely any tutorials, many things left unexplained. Some missions force key combinations which are impossible on my keyboard (Ctrl+=) and the key combinations are hardcoded, meaning: Unchangable. I therefore can't play content I've paid for. When you're trying to drive a cargo train from A to B and your emergency brake locks up for the seventh time without ANY rhyme, reason or information, also not unlocking until the train is at full stop, you're losing any fun you've had up to that point pretty ♥♥♥♥♥♥' fast. Gotta add onto that: I only got the main game because the DLC ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ they're doing here is one of the worst money schemes I've ever seen. Do NOT buy this. You're being scammed on close to every level. Glad I got this in a Humble Bundle, otherwise I'd have to force them to give me back my money.

Fantastic game. A bit old, if we are talking about the hardware aspects, so even with newer hardware, game is still laggy some times. The work around is to use lossless scaling. That does it. Talking about the game, it's better if played with custom routes honestly, like romanian routes, hungarian routes, russian routes, etc. All these things, you can find em on the internet, some free and some payware.
Recommended Oct 1, 2026
I bought a key for the game from G2A to play Romanian routes, but I couldn't mange to download them and now I can't refund it. So yall can tell me a route that I can play?
