Speaking of train Sims on the spectrum, I had one set in world war 2. You had to drive a train across an occupied country, that was the simulation part.
But you also had to jump into mounted guns on your journey to shoot down attacking enemy fighters. Also, at every station, you had to shoot the enemy soldiers as they appeared at the windows.
It wasn’t too bad and I think I even completed it once or twice.
I’ll never forget that if you switched the train into reverse while travelling forwards, it would strip the gears.
It’s realistic I guess and I wasn’t expecting it but it means you’ve buggered up your hand because you can never reverse the train which is needed in the game.

Oh, that sounds amazing!
I’ve had some free time and found it.
The Train: Escape to Normandy published by a little company called Electronic Arts in 1988.

Thanks, I’ll check it out!
