What Makes Train Simulator PRO 2018 Stand Out
Have you ever dreamed of being a train engineer? Train Simulator PRO 2018 will let you drive carefully modeled locomotives leading passenger or freight trains across the eastern half of the US. Whether you like fast passenger locomotives or powerful freight movers able to pull dozens of cars, in our game you will find it all. Whatever you choose, you will have to watch out for speed limits, rail crossings, signals and other trains. Plan your route wisely to maximize profits and create the most powerful railway company in the US!
During your travels, you can admire photo-realistic graphics including cities, suburbs, factories, countrysides and much more. Each locomotive includes a carefully-rendered engineer’s cabin with working levers and gauges for maximum realism. However, you have to be careful as driving recklessly or pushing the brakes for too long may damage the train. So put your engineer’s cap on, and let’s get rolling!

Community Insight:
This is the best train game Ive ever had but just one thing it could use a bigger map.
First off, thank you for creating Train Pro 2018. Its still one of the most enjoyable train sims available on iOS, and we really appreciate the effort you put into making it realistic and engaging. We wanted to report a bug that still affects gameplay, especially for those of us who enjoy longer trains. The issue happens when pulling a consist with 31 railcars or more. If you go slowly over a grade crossing, the game gives a citation for not using the horn, even if the horn was sounded correctly when the locomotives first approached the crossing. This seems to occur when the last railcar is going over the crossing, almost like the game expects the horn to be blown again at the end of the train. It's a small bug, but it impacts the realism and penalizes players unfairly for following the rules properly. If theres any chance this could be patched in a small update, Im sure many fans, ourselves included, would really appreciate it. Thank you again for your work and for continuing to support simulation fans over the years! Best regards, JellyJam91.
Hi. 1. We would like you to make all trains free and get infinite of them. Add a creative mode and a career mode 2. And we would like you to expand the map. 3. We need multiplayer so people can play together 4. We need more camera views with inside of each train passenger car and a free roam view. 5. We want an outside area with your own person that you can decorate with coins . 6. We need a lock/unlock feature for multiplayer so other people can enter your trains. 6. We would like usernames. 7. We need more trains there should be FREE and infinite as well. Thats all and thank you for letting us review. Please update the game soon!

Could you also add a detail that we could make are own map and tracks? And we would like that because we could enjoy the game more like 10/10 from 100/100 because if we could also make are own track routes to that would be amazing but we love the game keep up the good work.

Us and our friend play italot together it is AWESOME game.
We love the way you have to earn your stuff on here by completing missions for money. Makes the game very fun. Please update to have more train models and expand the map more west. This game has so much potential if you was to add the west coast us and connect it to what is already in the game, it would make this game so much cooler. Plus adding a few newer train locomotive types would be cool as well. For example, taking an Amtrak type locomotive passenger train from New York to LA or Chicago to LA would be an interesting mission on the game. That and delivering freight coast to coast would be fun as well and imagine the different scenerys you could add if you included the desert and Rocky Mountains. Just the thought of it makes us excited. Please update this game!!! The ability to choose the colors of your locomotives would be a neat feature as well and maybe a logo Im just throwing ideas out there but please consider that coast to coast map at least that would make it so much more fun.
Needs more engines like maybe steam. Also it glitched one day and now im like 72890 short so MINUS this is stupid and frustrating also can you please make it so you can make a consist with more then 4 engines.
This game was great and all with a wide selection of trains and good graphics, but there's one problem which is that whenever we drive our train for a little bit we lose money for no reason like we were following the speed limit. We wasn't taking damage from speeding or using the brakes too often like we just started to lose money for no reason we used to be at $500 but now we're at -2000 if you see this developers, please fix it.
We love this game but Id like to see more. Add multiple stops for freight missions and more trains. Lets put someone in the cockpit as well, time for update.
Look we like the game but if a real rail road company got as many absolutely unreal fines as this game has we would not have any railroads running , RIDICULOUS , who come up with that stuipid idea.
Hello of what we are saying about is the map. Well the map could use a bit more out westward and a new update on graphics and surroundings in game. Also a bit more trains to select from but of what Im saying is it needs and update for the graphics and map.thank for your time and we hope you see this and update the game. Thank you.
This train simulator is awesome but it could use some improvements. The first one is you should add more cities to go to like some on the west coast like L.A. Another improvement is to be able to go into the cab car and see what it looks like in the inside, and thats everything.
Its kinda food by you have to get gems to actually drive different trains and its hard to get gems and also its the same train horn for every train so idk.
Not as good as it could be, many things missing like headlights on on coming trains, no bell, and real railroads mix locomotives in consist regularly. Just to list a few issues.
Waste of money waste of money waste of money waste of money waste of money waste of money waste of money waste of money waste of money waste of money waste of money waste of money waste of money wasting money waste of money waste of money waste of money with the money waste of money with money waste of money waste of money The game is crap it shows that you only have 3600 tokens after one round. The game is a scam dont download please pretty please and we wish .there was a zero star.
Ive tried this game multiple times in the last few months. Everytime we do a mission we go further into debt. Help us please.
This is a very cheap game and is not worth the price at all. Dont fall for the pictures and videos, they are just false advertisements.First, it doesnt even let you change the weather. Secondly, it doesnt let you change your starting location. Thirdly, the graphics arent as good as advertised. And lastly, it has a RIDICULOUS in game currency that takes you forever to earn and for just ONE Amtrak locomotive, it is 610 diamonds !! If youre going to pay this much money, and you have to collect and earn coins and diamonds to get locomotives and train cars and do missions, its definitely NOT worth it.
Game is great, but we think there should be premium locos and some steam engines. But overall the game is great. Maybe add a derailment mode for fun. Keep up the good work.
Can you guys please update the game. Other than that the game is super fun and entertaining to play.
This is what our friends told us to avoid but this game is super fun and addicting, but they should really take out the brake and engine damage because our mom does not let us buy coins to repair them, so we have to delete and reinstall the app. Five star though.
Its great. Thats all there is to say.
We love this game, it has very realistic rolling stock and engines. The level of detail really grabbed our attention. Not much to say other that it is a great game. But on our opinion on things to add are… 1. Mix engine types on a single consist 2. Add locomotive bell 3. Assign a horn to a particular engine bye its type (example, a p42 should have a k5la 4 add grade crossing gates 5. Possibly longer ai trains. Thats pretty much it, Keep up the good work and we hope to see the game improve! :).
This game is fun but you should add something, can you add a bell for the trains and make the controls interactive because they dont work.
The game is not as crisp as the videos make u believe. But never the less this is one of the best train sims where u drive the train Ive found so far. We wish there was a cab light even a red one or some low lighting on the control panels. This is an EAST COAST TRAIN GAME USA (Detroit,Chicago,Indianapolis,Cleveland,New York,Washington,Cincinnati,St.Louis,Memphis,Releigh,Atlanta,Savannah,New Orleans,Miami.) Trains are fun. Each acts differently and u have to relearn how to drive and brake correctly. Worth the money. Just know that its not as pretty as it appears but theres enough placed in the game to give u land marks of the routes. Like Sunflower Crops. Hope they make something els.
This game is amazing bc we need the go train to get the cab car and the locamotive GO TRAIN thx for the Feedback.
The entire game is nothing but realistic and awesome. The only problem we have with the game is that there should be a bell button where you press it and the bell sounds until you press the button again to stop the bell.
This is the best train simulator out there but when it says we failed to use our horn at a grade crossing even though we did.and you cant put an engine on the front and the back and there are no gates at the grade crossing and there are almost no roads and we hate how there are so many speed limits.but… Otherwise it is a great game if you havent already download this game and start playing now its free.
This is AWESOME guys. You should play it . We even like the details. We wish it showed the title though.
One thing we recommend for it to be more realistic is add the ability for train derailment and collisions.
Put subway routes need to update.
Very accurate & fun….hats off to the developers of this sim. Had it for a year now and its still fun. Great graphics and realistic overall. Endless possibilities of train types and consist. For the price its a bargain! You can make the trains as long as you like. A few changes we would make: (1) the tracks go through some hilly landscape that is too steep to be realistic even for a car, let alone a train. (2) long trains get the famous horn failure alert along with paying the penalty – telling you the sim does not recognize long trains at grade crossings. (3) Night time running is boring since you cannot see much except 50 ft in front of you. Rainy weather ditto. No its not a perfect sim, But overall its alot of fun if you really like trains.
We love this app because everything looks so realistic and we love trains we suggest everyone should play this except though there still one thing theres a hill in the game and our train cant get over.
We love this game. Although, it really needs to be updated and some more trains should be added like an f59phi or a de30ac.
It is a really good game for a phone. It would be cool if there was a whole map of the United States and maybe other contries.
Hi our name is Aidan and we live in Los Angeles California and Im 11 we think you should add multiplayer Because sometimes its gets boring play with AI. We also think u could be a little more realistic. For example we should be able to have 2-5 trains in the same line. And to top it off we should have our own company. And u guys should definitely add multiplayer and companys.
Hello. We love this game and when we want to operate a railroad we come to this. We just wish we could upload a skin for the trains in the game. Could you add that.
Should seriously add some locomotives.
For us, the gold says negative 57298. All though, we like the fact that this game looks realistic. Trainz has the competition. We honestly think that this is a fun game. Btw, we dont like the fact that you have to unlock the engines. So, if you could remove that feature, we might make a video about the most downloaded train game in the world. And guess what, IT WILL BE THIS!!! Oh and btw, can you add crossing gates to all RR crossings? Thank you. And put a feature where u can derail ur train and put it back on the rails again. We think that will make this game more fun. Thank you very much.
We love this game they dont have that many train games . We recommend that you can go around the whole USA. Pls do this and we will be happy and we will like it better like you can go to Los Angeles or Denver.
Its a great game! The scenery, the graphics, and most of the mechanics are great! Theres a slight problem however, the price of everything is WAY to much, and if you fully damage your engine which costs 4000 gold of which you only have 1000, your basically just stuck and cant do anything, other than pay money to get gems to get gold and then your off again. Its a awesome game with a lot of great mechanics, but some mechanics, pay-to-win, and the price of engines and repairs are just overpriced.
Awesome game! Maybe add the rest of the states to the map. Also would love to see improvements to the trains passing you such as lights on when its night and also them sounding horns before crossings. Also maybe add lights and gates for the crossings too. Overall such a fun game.
When Im driving why does our gold/currency keep disappearing like Ill start a route with like 300 in the bank and half way we check and we are 2000 we debt can someone explain or fix? We cant even buy anything because we have to pay back what Im owning and Diesel fuel.
We really enjoy this game. While the simulation may not be as accurate as we like the graphics are great and we havent grown tired of it like we do a lot of games. Its not a money grab. We didnt give it five stars for a few reasons. No lights at night mostly and a few inaccuracies but overall a great iPhone game. Looking forward to seeing an update.
We love the game the graphics and every thing but 1 thing our train is stuck on this hill because its to heavy so it cant climb the hill our point is it should say warning your train is to heavy it may not be able to climb hills please do that so this wont happen again.
Blows every other simulator out of the water. Looks really nice on the IPhone XS and we love that the missions actually give you purpose in operating the trains. Very realistic controls with electrobrakes and airbrakes. Very well-polished interface as well. Love all the different trains (although there could be more) and the fact that you need to compete missions to earn money to buy them. Missing one star because we think the camera feature needs to be proved. First, allow zooming from inside the cab! On a small phone screen sometimes would like to zoom in on the beautiful scenery. Second, allow a further zoom out when outside the train. Would love to be able to take in a view of a whole train within the highly detailed environment. Hope the devs continue development of this particular app because they are really into something here.
Its just a game mode idea we had where you have unlimited money and can buy all the locomotives and rolling stock you want and make crazy train consists.
Love this game. Its sucked many hours from us and its great. Although, for the past eight months, our game crashes every time we select a mission, making the game practically unplayable. We have spent IAP money in the game and will continue to support if this issue is addressed. Thank you.
Very hard to play this when Im going Im debt every now and then also where Are the railway crossings.
Thats all Im going to say btw Id ur reading this u noob and us pro fortnite for win shut up we dont care if u hate fortnite Jeez someone has anger issues.
