That's good to hear! It is good that there are programs out there that make it possible to develop valuable skills like that. Good to hear your son enjoying the simulator like that.
On a similar note, I am thinking about purchasing a train simulator. Which in everyone's opinion is better, MSTS? or Trainz? Thanks in advance.
