What Makes Train Driver Journey 4 – Introduction to Steam Stand Out
Your journey as a Train Driver begins today in this realistic train simulator! From the makers of the world-leading Trainz series, take charge of a wide range of powerful locos, hauling thousands of tonnes of freight, shunting in the yard or shuttling passengers along suburban lines. Explore amazingly detailed and interactive routes from around the world from a variety of camera angles. Fun for ages 5 to 95!
Journey 4 – Introduction to Steam
This Journey takes you back to the 1940's and 50's when steam ruled the railroads! You start out with some introductory sessions to teach you how to handle the complex tasks of keeping your fire hot, water and coal levels maintained and avoiding wheelslip. You then move onto the famous Union Pacific BigBoy. The largest ever "4-8-8-4" steam loco consisted of a four-wheel leading truck for stability entering curves, two sets of eight driving wheels and a four-wheel trailing truck to support the large firebox. We have saved the best Steam locomotive for last. We are very excited to have this ultra high detailed train on mobile. Please welcome "The Blue Comet" in all its glory!
Sessions included in this Train Driver Journey include:
Steam – Basic Movement
Steam – Cutoff Control
Steam – Resource Management
The Blue Comet
The Repair and Rescue
Free Drive
Collect the full series of Train Driver "Journeys" and travel the world in charge of heavy freight, modern high speed passenger or old time steam locos. Each "Journey" is a stand-alone app or you can purchase many of the same Routes and Sessions via in-app purchase from our "Trainz Driver 2" and "Trainz Simulator 2" apps which also provide the amazing World Builder module to create your own tracks.

Train Driver Journey 3 – Waldabavale to Karrah Bay

Player Experience Highlights
Community Insight:
Fun, generally addictive game for train lovers.
We enjoyed the original trains app, this one has more steam trains which is good.
Our favorite type of train are steam train so we have been having a blast with this game. The only thing is though, we dont like how you brought back the first map we wish you could have done sort of a old London type of theme. We didnt like how for the tutorial level you had to have realistic mode on, but whatever. Lastly we like how in the big boy intro level that it just let you play around with it.
Its a great alternative to Trainz 2019.
This is probably one of the best train games Ive ever played but for trainz simulator 2 (the one that you created) please make it so you can look out the window and go into the fireman seat thank you! :).
Is pere marquette going to be added to this game.
Very good mor steam engines and pls ease some f1 engine.
Its great, there is another intro to steam locomotive, the blue comet, but there is still DIESELS in the game. Other than that, its great.
We really like this game it has the blue comet and the big boy and some really cool other trains. We also think you could make another TDJ but you can go around the world and go through Texas and Dallas. Other than that this is a really good games and if you like trains you should buy all the TDJ games too.
We cant say much else, N3V hames is a great developer and their games are generally good to play.
Ive been playing for a while but we cannot get that blue comet train to hook up to its train cars and on the other one where it says their steam trains we cannot find steam trains so can you make it a little easier.
We rated this Game, 5 stars because we wanted to be able to drive the black CNJ steam locomotive.
Very cool game. If you like trains get this game. Awesome.
We think the game is awesome if only there we more trains and different places to go and a bigger map because the map is to small but reasonable size.
It has the best detail and game play.
Whats different between heavy and light blue comet.
We love this app we wish u could unlock American locomotives like bnsf csx Norfolk southern when u Finnish a mission but still very cool and detailed.
We love how you can drive a Big Boy locomotive or the famous train The Blue Comet.
Great app. Love trains and this is very realistic.
We think this game is awesome, except for a few things: when you start a session, and u have to leave the app or turn off device it does not save your progress, you have to start over, please fix. Second, we like steam engines, there are 5 different steam engines, not five different steam trains, but engines, 3 are blue comet, we only wish there were more steam engines to use. Last, but not least, we think there should be updates, and not every update has to have something added, just updates to let everybody know you are still working on the game. Other than those 3 things, the game is awesome.
Free ride is little and on the first train driver journey add steam trains and put a free ride Its still a good game in this game which is is train driver journey 4 add Thomas the tank engine and his friends.
Do you think you can add in the A4 class Mallard and the Flying Scottsman.
Great but can you add more trains like Amtrak.
You get the blue comic if you don't have it IT'S THE BEST GAME we'VE PLAYED EVER <D.
Do you guys at the app corporation know how you go to pause the game and the game's been paused for hours and when you go back on it again it's frozen? Well we think you need to add where you can save it, close it, and re open it.
This is the best train game company we ever viewed and played we just wish that this game could have any holiday events.
We love the App!! But minor changes beed to be updated. First you need the Southern Pacific Daylight, and you also are gonna need some Canadian Pacific. Thats all.
put Thomas and friends on this app.
put the polar express on this app.
This is a very good game we like it a lot.
We love it its great because our favorite trains are steam trains.
We love the steam trains! We love how the wheels and valve gears look so realistic! We feel like Im on the actual train! Out of all of them, our personal favorite has to be The Blue Comet. Please add more steam trains to Trainz Driver Journeys 4 in your new update! Thank you.
Awesome. Awesome Awesome we love the trains. We always wonted to be a Train engineer. From Engineer Hall. God bless and have a nice day. (((( And Please Be Careful Out Their. )))).
ITS GREAT! We HAVE TO YELL OVER THE SOUND OF THE BLUE COMET.
This game is amazing. It is very good keep making more.
It is a good game we love playing it. If you made it so a person could shut the engine off that would be fun.
Its awesome. The best game ever. Best graphics! We recommend all of the Tdjs.
We recreated the polar express in this game so cool.
Great game! They added the big boy and the blue comet all for 99 cents! Great deal.
It has all the train you would see in the 1940's.
We really like this game it's a fun game extremely good graphics the steam looks real on steam engines. We wish u all could make a big rig simulator game this is by far one of the best and our favorite simulator games.
If you love trains this is for you.
We like this blue comet with computer.
This is amazing we love steam trains.

Very nice, no lag and nice engines.
We got this app and we knew it was great before we even opened it. The graphics are amazing and the simulations are really fun.
Works great not many bugs tutorials are very helpful and we just love the game.
Best controls ever. We can handle the steam locomotives like a real professional engineer. Thanks for the game. Might we suggest more steam locomotives? When it comes to trains; we're a steam fanatic.
