Saw it advertised in a box store ad.
Purchased at Sams Club for $42.95
Installed 6-11-01. Installed with no problems.
Ran the train rides, lurked on the forum for a while, and started several routes before scrapping them and settling on the Lake State.
Also, have a test route for the purpose of bug testing bridges and other objects.SRV Ron

RE: How Long Have You Had MSTS & Where Did You Get It?

HeyI got mine the first week of June 2001 at Comp Usa. Paid 49.95 for it. The first two weeks I was sorry. Had to do a lot of fixing and decided I wasn't going to let this thing win. Have been adicted to it ever since and I am damn glad I got it. It has been running without a problem since August 2001.Chuck Hebert

RE: How Long Have You Had MSTS & Where Did You Get It?

I've had MSTS since it's release. In fact I had pre ordered it about a month or two before it came out. I purchase a lot on line... as I recall I got it from "Buy.com" (I think!)
Regards to all, Steve.

RE: How Long Have You Had MSTS & Where Did You Get It?

Hi
Late June 2K1.
Just got a copy for friend as a B-day gift a month ago, who while being a RR buff like me wasn't sure he'd really be into it, being more of a flight sim guy.
Heck one week in and he's cranking out routes and such,and I just figured out reskining after a year.( I suppose his being out of a gig frees up all sorts of time though)
