Control of the actual train itself can be done directly via controls, or you can use the mouse to pull the levers and hit buttons. You can disembark, wander about and handle other parts of the job like refuelling, operating turntables and attaching the freight cars. The game at its root plays more like a first person adventure game than a simulator, i that you control a train driver, not a train. The game simulates weather but it equally simulates how little these machines are bothered by it. The simulated trains would all have been viewed as the baddies on the island of Sodor: great hulking machines capable of hauling immense amounts of cargo over terrain thatn in a less determined country, might have been written off as impassable. The locomotives in the game are also unfamiliar, insomuch as my knowledge of specific locomotives only extends to the early Thomas the Tank Engine canon.
