Train Sim – Subway Update

Train Sim SubwayA new version of Train Sim is now available for Android and iOS, featuring a Train Sim Subwaycompletely new and much larger Subway Scene. An updated Subway Scene has been requested by users for some time now, and I decided to not disappoint.  The new Subway Scene features 15 Stations and 3 outside portions.  Simply put, its huge!

This new version of Train Sim also contains another much requested feature, electrical poles! When running an electric train, the Metropolis and Port scenes will display electrical posts above the track.  I have not yet added this to the other scenes because I am not sure how well the electrical poles will look in the Desert.

One of the challenges I am currently facing is download size.  Train Sim Android is currently just under 50MB, meaning it can be downloaded as a single file.  Once I cross the 50MB file size I will be forced to split Train Sim into 2 downloads (main and additional content).  This is something I really do not want to do.  So I will have to spend some time modifying existing content to be stored more efficiently.  This will hopefully postpone this issue by an extra year.

What is new in this version?  Most importantly as promised I added an Indian Rail WDP-4 Diesel Electric Train with 3D Cab.  The game will now collect some additional driver stats, such as distance traveled and number of crashes.  Furthermore all trains now have custom light sources that better match the actual size of the locomotive.

Train Sim 7 Million Downloads

Train SimTrain Simulator has hit over 7 Million downloads on the Android Market in just 20 months.  Thank you to all the people that decided to give Train Sim a try, and I appreciate the time you put in playing the game.

I also want to thank everyone who has provided me with constructive feedback, as it helps me make continual improvements to Train Sim.  Please continue sending me your suggestions, many of the current features are a direct result of player comments sent to me by email or posted as a review in Google Play Store.
