Germany on the Moon [Posted on 2006-07-19]
This particular add-on for MSTS can be worthwhile, now that it's being sold used for almost nothing. Pro's: very long trip... be prepared for at least three hours just getting from one end of the track to the other. The included engines are well done, if not quite the same quality as default MSTS trains. Con's: Very little scenery... mile after mile of slate grey (very moon-ish)flatland filled to the brim with trees in between the actually very well done cities. If you play MSTS at all, go ahead and get this add-on... used here on Amazon. Do not pay full price.

BIG EDIT: I guess I needed to just drive down the track a bit farther. I used the ICE high speed train, put it to 100% throttle, and just let it run. Once I got away from the cities, and closer to the lake/river, the scenery improved dramatically. Very nice lake side drive, with tall cliffs on your sides. I take back what I said about the moon surface... you just gotta take the whole trip to see the fine details.

ProTrain [Posted on 2006-09-16]
This was one of the first commercial addons for MSTS and I bought it news way back then. I loved this route from the start and still use it today. The scenery has held up okay over the years and there are pleanty of other routes out there there are better in that regard, however, this is still a great route. You get the feel of a real life in this sim that many other MSTS routes just don't have. And the length of run is fantastic. In addition to that with a little research you can build out real schedules, real trains and get a feel for the great DB system. The ProTrain series has gone on to create many more great routes and I have many of them, but I still come back to this one because it was the first and it really showed what could be done with MSTS.

Another Great Add-on [Posted on 2008-03-24]
This is a another great addition to the train simulator. I love love feel of running trains in Germany.

Microsoft Trains Pro Train Add-On [Posted on 2008-06-14]
Microsoft Trains is as real and fun as you can get with train simulation. And a fun game. Pro Train Add-On is high quality and adds much to the game. It's well worth it.
