RailWorks German Update

We are delighted to announce the forthcoming launch of a major new update for RailWorks. The 'German Update' is the first of three major updates happening over the spring/summer season and, as you have probably guessed, it chiefly adds to the existing German game features and assets as well as delivering a range of universal improvements to the simulator.

The update is automatic and is available from Wednesday night for all RailWorks users to enjoy.
