Windows doesn't get a version because the market is not big enough?
Now you know how OSX users feel when the small market argument is trotted out.

Yep. .

might be back?
Well, I doubt it could handle any more than it currently has.

What about the iPod Touch (which is essentially an iPhone without the phone part)? I have a fourth generation iPod Touch running iOS 5.1.
It'll work for that.
What's wrong with Windows?
Excuse me, particularly people like Tony_Hilliam and Cratey, I guess it's just a REAL GOOD thing YOU didn't pick aWindows Phone, huh???? We get the party line: "Trainz Driver will be released on iPhone first, followed shortly by Android devices." but it seems there are a lot of sarcastic answers to this question, when ALL THE WHILE, Windows Phone users MONEY is JUST as good as Android or iPhone users MONEY. So, I WOULD NOT PAY ANY EXTRA FOR A WINDOWS PHONE VERSION. EVER! I think to be truly successful, you cater to EVERY man and woman E-X-A-C-T-L-Y as much as you cater to your "Elite" customers. I paid HUNDREDS OF DOLLARS LAST WEEK for your stuff, and I come to the Forums and THIS is the first thing I encounter? GEE, NO SECOND CLASS CITIZENS HERE, RIGHT???????
You make a version for everyone, if you are not getting the message, unless there aretechnical reasons prohibiting it. THAT'S YOUR JOB.
I, also, have a windows 7 htc phone, which is modern, up to the minute and capable of running an app like this, and , frankly, MUCH BETTER than an Android Phone OR iPHONE. So tell me, has Apple EVER gotten the iPhone right in, let's see...4s iterations?????
I think the people responsible for these apps and programs are looking for an easy BUCK, since Android is so popular......er, hold on, SO IS WINDOWS! How 'bout a straight answer to this, which is what you KNOW we Windows Phone users want.
BTW, I also own a Mac Pro, and I want more stuff for the Mac.
AND BEFORE THE POWERS THAT BE GO AHEAD AND BLOW THIS POST OUT OF THE WATER, MAYBE YOU ALL SHOULD CONSIDER THE THOUGHT: "YEAH, ACTUALLY, HE'S RIGHT!"
Thanks,
John

Good Morning John
Unfortunately, at the moment at least, Windows Phone is a much smaller market (in an already very small market - railway simulators) than iPhone and Android, and as such we do not see the Windows Phone platform as being viable at this time (approx 1.3% according to a quick google search). As such, unless the number of users of Windows Phone based phones expands, it's unlikely to become viable for us to produce a version of Trainz Driver for phones running Windows Phone.

My friends will LOVE this. They don't have a decent computer but they have a nice iPhone. They've always wanted something like Trainz... and now they are getting just that!

As it's the 18th I was expecting more of a 'now' than a 'soon'.
