Welcome To The Razorback Railway

We set the challenge, you do the driving!

What we do: The Razorback Railway is a Trainz fansite. We are a non-profit organisation which makes material for use with Auran's Trainz Railway Simulator, which is a commercial program for Windows PC's. We mainly concentrate on interactive scripted activities which are run as scenarios in TRS2004. In TRS2006 they are run as driver sessions but appear almost identical to TRS2004 scenarios.

Free of charge: Layouts, rolling stock asset paks, asset management utilities, a small sample of activities, support, forum.

Optional annual subscription ($15): Entitles you to download the full set of our activities - giving you more than forty additional activities. Straightforward payment from numerous countries via PayPal.

System requirements: TRS2004 (SP4) or TRS2006 (SP1), a computer to run it on, and an Internet connection. At the moment we do not provide support for running our material on any other versions of Trainz.

The Razorback advantage: Everything you need is fully compatible, fully tested, and downloaded from our server at full speed. No CMP, no DLS, no missing dependencies and no broken assets.

Activities of all kinds: Steam, diesel and electric; passenger and freight; mainline, branch line, shunting and shunting puzzles; choice of DCC and CAB mode. In every case (except activity TFN15) you are the driver. The frequency of instructions in our activities varies widely, from merely an introductory statement of what you have to achieve in some cases, brief occasional instructions in others, and instructions every step of the way in yet others. Some activities include user choices and/or random events.

A free standalone slide show program illustrating our work can be downloaded with no need to register with us. It can be run without needing to have Trainz installed on your computer. There are two versions available: 97 images (9.43MB) and 15 images (1.66MB).

To access our material, register (free of charge), then go to the Getting Started section of our FAQ for full details. You need to download and install some essential files before our activities will work.

If you have any questions or problems, please don't hesitate to use our friendly forum.

Happy driving on the RBR!
