The main menu now offers the Driver and Scenarios choices for train play, Surveyor for scenario creation, the Railyard for viewing your collection of cars and locomotives and the Trainz Exchange, a direct link to online resources.

Trainz 2004 takes that much-loved boyhood/middle-aged pastime of building a model railway in your attic and crams it kicking and screaming into your CPUs.
