A-Train 9 is a railways and business simulation game. The aim is to create a transport network which supports the growth of a thriving and profitable city or town.

A-Train 9 Railways Simulator has a host of new graphics, features and game-play elements that are the result of the games continuous development over 4 years. Here's a look at what's new [Link to "what's new" page]

The first version of the game came out in 1998. This makes it one of the first games of its type. A-Train 3 was released worldwide in the 1990's as "A-Train" on platforms as diverse as the PC and Sony Playstation

Absolutely yes. Degica are going to "doing it right". We have ensured that the game is properly regionalized before release and will continue to support it afterwards.

At the time of release some engines are missing. This is due to licensing issues. However, Degica are committed adding more engine types over time, it is our intention, where possible, to make these additions free of charge. We are actively negotiating with rail companies throughout the world for the rights to use their trains livery and likenesses in the game.

The dollar price for the full game is $59.99(at launch). There is a 50% discount for anyone who already owns the previous A-Train 9 on Steam

It can be bought from here, or from Steam [link to steam page once up]
