I'm glad someone is still talking about this game. I play this game 
regularly, downloading some mods from Steve's Locomotion Depot.
I prefer to create my own scenarios than play the built-in ones. My PC is a 
Pentium 4 2.66 GHz and only see a slow down when in full zoomed-out view.
I've played the XP-compatible TTD, but due to the resolution, I can't get it 
full-screen.
Is there anyone else playing Loco who would like to talk about it?
