Gameplay

Train Sim World 2 offers an extremely realistic experience. The developers focused on making each machine unique in terms of controls, 'feel', and visuals. Among available trains we can find the iconic German express train DB ICE 3M, allowing to feel the speed of 250km/h while driving out of Köln, classic American CSX AC4400CW on the scenic route of Sand Patch Grade, and the 1972 Mark 2 Stock being one of the oldest rolling stock used by the London Underground.

Every train is unique if it comes to the controls and it's noticeable since the first moment spent in the new locomotive. It is worth mentioning that each machine has been faithfully re-created thanks to official licenses. The game offers a wide range of customization options. Players can create unique liveries that match their personal preferences.
