Do you mean Trainz Railroad Simulator UTC (not UPC)? And I have no idea what the "187124000892" means.
Trainz UTC is another name for Trainz version 1.4. It is a full working version and was released over 20 years ago. You will need a serial number (and no, that is not what the 187124000892 represents). Chances are you have bought a second hand copy that someone has already registered, in their name, using its serial number so you may not be able to use it. If it came in its original box with unopened cellophane wrapping then you may be in luck. The serial number will be inside the box.
It may or may not run on Windows 10/11 - so much has changed since then. Perhaps it may work if you install it in Windows Legacy mode but there are no guarantees.
Technical support for that version expired in September 2010.
He is giving the UPC code number from the box. Proper format would be 187124 is the vendor ID and 000892 is the product ID.
Auran's vendor number is 31053 so it isn't an old version sold by Auran directly.
Some times a number is added to the front as in my copy of TRS2004 has 831053 as the vendor.
My copy of Trainz Railwayz which was sold in the USA as a combo product of Trainz Classic 1 & 2 and TRS2006 has the vendor number of 87124 so it might be possible the 1 in the number listed by the OP is a prefix of the same vendor number. However, the product number is 00083 which indicates a much older version than above. I have no idea what N3V's vendor number is as I've only purchased electronic downloads of their versions. Perhaps one of the box collectors could be of assistance.
If 87124 is the vendor number of N3V then is likely TS12 or higher as I see those for sale all the time. Of course, the best path forward is to contact the helpdesk via the Support link in the menu bar above.

I have that version of Trainz and I got it from my local Target store back in the days.
Its a full version of Trainz Railroad Simulator 2006 and its the "limited edition" without the metal case and the 60+ page manuel (I don't have the exact page count).

I'm glad the product @hw19 mentioned has been identified. I wonder if it has been registered by the previous owner. I hope not as each product can only be registered once.
One additional note on UPCs is that the first and last digits are checksum values and have no role in identifying the vendor or the product. They only test to ensure the 10 digits in the middle are a properly scanned UPC.

I didn't realize either how long they've been around. It's cool how the development led to railcar scanning. That system was developed here in Massachusetts not far from where I worked in Waltham, MA.
Barcodes came out about 1973 at the department store I was working in my senior year in high school. They installed the hand scanners at the check stands and trained the staff, but none of the products had bar codes at the time, so they printed off big spools of rectangular yellow stickers with the codes, and every sticker had to be matched to every item in the store, and the sticker applied to the package. It was a major undertaking, and every time new stock arrived the same process had to be applied before the stock could be shelved. Wow, another blast from the past!
