I thought it was quite a good Stock Market sim (RRT2 that is) with some
railway building on the side. Building tracks is easier than in TT, but
getting them precisely were you want them is a pain. There are no tunnels,
no signals (trains just grey out when the cross), and no bridges (other than
over water).

After a while I got bored with the draw a track between two points, set up
some trains, and play the stock market cycle. The game seemed to take over
to much of the fun side, creating a railway network, and force you to spend
too much time worrying about the finances. In my opinion anyway, others
seemed to like that sort of thing.

Put it this way: RRT2 is to TT, what Civilisation is to SimCity. It's a
computerised board game, but a good one for that, and one that gave me
several months of pleasure.

The city metro building scenario is only in the add on pack BTW. I haven't
bothered with that.
