I've been with the community since service pack 2 was released for TRS2004. After being disappointed with MSTS, 2004 was everything I had hoped it would be (I still use '04 on my laptop).
When TRS2006 was released I couldn't wait, I preordered it. TRS2006, after 2004, didn't seem like much of an improvement. The new content was nice, and I liked CMP (it works for me, but then again my professors at college say I have a warped view of the world).
I've settled into a happy little niche with TRS2006. I learned how to work around its quirks. I don't want to change platforms just for minor improvements in content rather than in interface or gameplay.
So my question is this: Is it worth purchasing Trainz Classics (assuming I'll import my content from '06 to TC), or am I better off staying with TRS2006 until the 'fabled' '09 comes out? What are the benefits of TC over '06?
If it helps your advice:
My interest in Trainz focuses on operations, serving industries and dispatching, and I primarily model modern day freight lines (BNSF, MRL) in the western USA. I use a dual core computer with Vista.
