i have a railroad 2 and it work fine on windows xp service pack 3. then microsoft crash my hard drive and then it has some issues with it. the game works but no music,
Loved this game 20 years ago. I lost my CD a long time ago, I'll be sure to try this!
Worked right away without a VM on my WIndows 10 system.
I had owned the game, but some1 stole it. I did order it through XPLOSIVE, however I Paid 10 dollars for it, and damn there was a authorization code to it, and there wasn't, on the pack or disk. So I spent 5 bucks on it through Steam.com, hell there was no way to set up water towers or repair. If U know about train, U need them, so I erased the account of theirs

Developer PopTop delivers gamers to the age of steam, steel, commodities, and capitalism in this sequel to its 1999 hit Railroad Tycoon II. As did that game (and also the classic original, Sid Meier's Railroad Tycoon), Railroad Tycoon 3 casts players as the captains of an up-and-coming railroad system, in competition with other, like-minded entrepreneurs to claim as much of the lucrative 19th and 20th century rail trade as they can. Beginning with a modest amount of start-up capital, players found a company, purchase cars and locomotives, lay down track, and choose the kinds of cargo their fledgling rail systems will move and trade.

Track-building tools include bridges, overpasses, and the return of tunnels from the original version of the game. Players can choose from over 35 different commodities, the value of each tied to a dynamic in-game economy. More than 40 locomotives, from the earliest steam-powered machines to the latest electricity-driven 'bullet' trains, are available to haul these goods from town to town. This third edition of Railroad Tycoon challenges would-be captains of industry to prove their capitalist savvy in 25 scenarios set in locations around the world. A sandbox mode is also available, for those who would rather build their rail empires on their own terms. Online multiplayer support includes a matchmaking service.

While Railroad Tycoon 3 is designed to retain and improve upon favorite gameplay features found in the earlier titles, it also makes some changes -- the biggest of which may be the switch to full 3D, thanks to a game engine PopTop developed itself for this project. Players can now view any part their developing empires from nearly any angle, with a camera angle that spins, pans, and zooms smoothly on most contemporary computers. To ease recognition and make management easier, the trains, stations, towns, and other landscape features are not completely accurate in scale to their surroundings, but they now appear much more realistically across the game world countryside.

Railroad Tycoon 3 is one of the best strategy/empire-building games of the year. It achieves a kind of holy grail for strategy gaming: It's easy to learn, easy to start to play, and yet underneath the surface there's an incredibly deep economic simulation that takes hours to figure out and even longer to master ... once you're ready for it. It's a game that could be played on many levels, online or off, by casual train buffs or hardcore strategy addicts alike. It's got some rough edges, and the economic model might frustrate micromanagers out there, but like a temperamental lover you tend to overlook the faults to immerse yourself in a boxcar-load of intense strategy gaming.

For longtime fans of the series it's been a long wait since Railroad Tycoon 2 -- about five years. Cosmetically, the new 3D engine will be the most obvious difference, but it's the underlying economic simulation that is by far the biggest change to the franchise. But first, the basics.

Like any Tycoon game, Railroad Tycoon 3 is about making money. Lots of it. And stopping other people from making money that, by all rights, should be yours. You'll start with a map of some region of land (such as the Northeast U.S. or Germany just prior to unification) and, depending on the scenario, some goals to achieve before the time limit is up. You'll look at where the big cities are, take into account the lay of the land, and then you'll start connecting places with rail lines. Little trains will move along your railroads carrying cargo from one place to another, hopefully for a big profit if you planned it right. Then you expand your network, routing rail traffic, perhaps even buying up other industries, until you've got more money than Rockefeller and you regularly put the president on hold.

New to this incarnation of the theme is a 3D graphics engine that really brings the rail era to life. You can hover above in a satellite view, looking at the network of rail lines stretched from tiny city to tiny city, and then you can zoom smoothly and seamlessly right into the action, down to individual trains. The 3D terrain works well. Instead of laying down track on some pre-determined grid, you stretch pieces of rail, bending them like noodles until they snap into place. This results in nice, fluid tracks. You can also build underpasses, overpasses, bridges, tunnels, and rail junctions with click-and-drag ease. One of the joys of the game is locking the camera onto a specific train and zooming all the way in, following it along its route as though you're leaning out the window of the engine. Since the game includes a 'sandbox mode,' it's the perfect gift for someone who isn't necessarily a gamer but loves trains: It's the ultimate digital toy train set.

Of course, actually playing the game is rewarding, too...

Part of the appeal is that Railroad Tycoon 3 really has three games going on simultaneously, each more engrossing than the last:

The Railroad Game: Simply connecting up cities and building a rail empire can be a profitable business. You'll spend time buying new trains, plotting out new routes, and building links to new cities. Finding a way around a tricky mountain range and opening up a whole new market can be pretty satisfying.

The Industry Game: You can also buy up businesses, such as farms or steel mills. You can even build your own, or add a little spice to your bottom line by building hotels and restaurants near your stations. The economic model is very detailed (see below), so while mastering this part of the game isn't easy, it's very gratifying.

The Stock Market: An entire stock market simulation is built into the game -- the lawless, unregulated stock market that made or broke the fortunes of industry captains. You can invest in other rail companies and manipulate the market with insider trading. Particularly in multiplayer games, playing the market can be cutthroat and brutal. There's a whole strategy here to master.

The richness of the game comes from the fact that different players can play the game differently. A casual armchair tycoon who wants a light, easy game to play can have plenty of fun just building railroads and letting the computer figure out the best cargo. The industry part of the game can be head-bangingly frustrating, but ultimately it can be manipulated by skilled strategists to create a huge bottom line and to win most scenarios with the most cash. Then you have the stock market, which can almost be ignored, or it
