There are (2) train simulators that I know of, one by Microsoft, and the other by a publisher called "Auran" out of australia. Both simulations have communities of geeks, just like flight simulators do, and there are people who develop trains and addons, just like in the flight sim community, as freeware. you may look around those communities and fan sites to see if you can find anything to play with. i believe both simulators use GMax models natively ? not sure if there is a materials path from GMax to something flight gear can use. and as a passing comment, i wonder if one of the train simulators might be a better train simulator that flightgear for your intended purpose ... > > Curt.
