I'm too young to remember steam but I have seen some excursion real steam trains in California and Arizona. They do seem cool but they look like gross polluters in this day and time; however no pollution from Trainz.

Steam and electric seem a little stupid and "wimpy" to me. There's no thrill compared to the feeling you get when throttling up a couple AC44s with 9000 tonnes behind you. Release the brakes, with that nice hissing sound, bail off and pull back on the throttle until you hear it click twice. (Run 2) You'll get jolted a bit as the slack runs in and out as you start to pull. You'll hear a beep and a message display on the screen "EOT FWD". Once you see this, you pull back the throttle and let it click once more and you're in Run 3. After you're confident that the slack has ran out of the train you grasp the throttle once more and pull it straight back. The harmonic but crisp 'clicks' of the throttle are music to your ears. Soon you will hear the prime movers start to chug and the TE meter rising. You look back and see a greyish cloud of smoke bilowing from the stacks. The speedo starts to climb.
There's nothing like experiencing that!
