Here's a cool tip for those of you who have the latest version of Windows 10 and want to do a 'quick and dirty' screen capture in Trainz:
Use the Windows+Shift+S key combination on your keyboard, and then when your mouse cursor turns to a crosshair, use it to mark out a rectangle on the screen to capture that image to your clipboard.
You can then paste (Ctrl+V) that screenshot into any other Windows program, including email, word processor, graphics program, etc.
The existing built-in Windows 'Snipping Tool' is still better if you want to save the resulting screen grab to a JPEG of PNG file format, and PrintScreen still works as normal.

I can see myself using this regularly for populating my explanatory, 'How-to' emails to clients needing assistance with Windows OS procedural matters. Very cool!
