The Open Rails team is pleased to announce the next public demonstration of the updated Open Rails software. This version includes highly detailed daytime and nighttime skies, rain, and snow along with other environmental features, updated authentic steam locomotive physics, and other enhancements. A guide to the software is also included. The demonstration release of Open Rails software makes no changes to any MSTS content. Please note that like any demonstration software, many features will be missing. Periodic releases of the software demonstrating key features to the train simulator community are an important way to share our continuing progress as well as establish a context for two-way communication.
To download your copy of the Open Rails software, click here: www.openrails.org/release.html.

The Open Rails is a constantly evolving project that runs on volunteer participation. Please feel free to post questions and comments about Open Rails at the Open Rails forums at UKTrainSim.com, TrainSim.com, and Elvas Tower.com. The Open Rails team will be periodically monitoring these forums. If the train simulator community wants to ensure the Open Rails team gets their feedback, please use the feedback form on the Open Rails website at www.openrails.org. Your feedback helps the team to gauge how well we are doing and/or what additional features you are most interested in us developing. The team will release a summary of the feedback to the train simulator community once we have closed downloads.
