Train Simulator (Ongakukan)
''Train Simulator'' (トレインシミュレーター, ''Torein Shimyurētā'', or abbreviated ''"TS"'') is a Japanese train simulator, train simulation game series produced by Ongakukan. The game is significant as it was one of the earliest of its kind since the series started in 1995. No titles were released outside of Asia until the 2022 title ''JR East Train Simulator''. The original ''Train Simulator'' series (1995–2000) was designed from technology which was previously used to develop the Ongakukan product "Touch the Music by Casiopea", which synchronized video with audio.

Train Simulator
A train simulator (also railroad simulator or railway simulator) is a computer-based simulation of rail transport operations. They are generally large complicated software packages modeling a 3D virtual reality world implemented both as commercial trainers, and consumer computer game software with 'play modes' which lets the user interact by stepping inside the virtual world. Because of the near view modeling, often at speed, train simulator software is generally far more complicated software to write and implement than flight simulator programs. Industrial train simulations Like flight simulators, train simulators have been produced for railway training purposes. Driver simulators include those produced by: * Avansim, based in the UK and Germany * Transurb Simulation, a Belgian-based company * FAAC (the training division of Arotech Corporation) in the United States * Ongakukan in Japan * EADS in Germany * Bentley Systems in the UK * Lander Simulation & Training Solutions ...
