Merscom has announced that "Trainz Railwayz" has been shipped to North American retailers and is now available.

"Developed by Auran Games and rated "E" for Everyone by the ESRB, Trainz Railwayz will combine two new titles in the Trainz line of games, and will also include as a bonus the best-selling Trainz Railroad Simulator (modified to be Vista compatible).

Trainz Railwayz includes two new titles from the Trainz line of games, with each one centered on a particular period in railway history or a particular track type. Included in Trainz Railwayz will be the Harlem Line Edition and the Metropolis Edition.

The Harlem Line Edition is a representation of New York's Harlem Line. Activities will consist of historically accurate commuter and departmental operations typical of those seen from the early 80s to the present day. Each session is designed to reflect the real-life atmosphere of the locality and the services. The Metropolis Edition, designed by Roger Cabo, is among the most stunning displays of Trainz ever created, focused on a modern city tramway and with beautifully realistic graphics.

Trainz Railwayz has a suggested retail price of $19.99 USD."
