Hello!
I am a n00b. A few years ago, I saw Trainz Driver Edition in the $10 rack at Target. Seemed like a good deal, so I snatched it up. It turns out that this is the 2006 version, and is also labelled "North American Edition".
And then it got put in a box somewhere when we moved, and forgotten about.
I recently rediscovered it, and have been playing it with my 5-year-old son, who is obsessed with anything large and mechanical that has wheels. And we've both been having a good time.
I have some Amazon gift cards from Christmas, and it occurs to me that one way I could use them would be to buy a more recent version of Trainz. But I'm not sure which one to get, and I'm a little confused and confounded by the numerous options available to me.
I am looking for the version that provides the most content for the price. Preferably a version which would allow me to download 3rd-party content from others, like fan-made rolling stock or fan-made scenarios.
Any suggestions or information would be greatly appreciated.
