Train Dispatcher 2 runs under Windows 3.1/95/98/NT/2000/ME operating
systems. A 50 page manual is included in the download.
Train Dispatcher 2 comes with five track territories. Another 200 track
territories can be downloaded for free from our web page at
www.softrail.com.
Train Dispatchers are the air traffic controllers of the railroads. They
control the movement of trains over large track territories. This game
simulates the gargantuan routing tasks a real-life dispatcher faces daily.
The problem is that trains must share a limited number of tracks. It some
cases a single track must be shared by trains going in opposite directions.
It is the job of the dispatcher to control the movement of trains over this
limited resource, which can create one bottleneck after another.
Why is Train Dispatcher so popular? The key to Train Dispatcher's popularity
is the local interest created by the vast territory library. What rail
enthusiast can resist trying a hand at controlling rail traffic in his own
home town? With so many territories available, the odds are excellent that a
particular territory which a user is interested already exits.

I wguess this means that those of us who *paid* for Train Dispatcher 2 and
Track Builder should have held out so that once TD3 was released we could
get TD2 for free.
I have not yet upgraded to TD3 (and TB3) and I am now not sure that I will.
Christmas is just about paid off, the credit cards are almost usable again,
but why should I pay for somethign when it might be free in a few months
time? After all, I paid for TD2 and TB, and as they say, once bitten twice
shy.
