The right game for the wrong game engine
The biggest problem that this game has is its use of Roller Coaster Tycoon's game engine. It worked great for that game, but not this. So indeed you are better off getting OpenTTD. Unless you are just here for the soundtrack... like I was.

Fairly Good
If you enjoy other sims like Transport Tycoon, simcity, etc then this might be a fun one for you. If you played the first two incarnations of Rollercoaster Tycoon, then this game will be pretty familiar in regards to controls and graphics. As far as economic modeling, Railroad Tycoon 3 is superior, but this is pretty good. Certainly worth the discount price it sells for now.

Beat the game!
Yes, it has its flaws: - you can easily exploit some game mechanics (extend stations) - there is no real economy in the game (no buyers for produced goods required) - planes make other public transportation redundant in lategame - track building (although I like it, I guess others could hate it) But: - still the best game of its genre Includes: - so many options, so many trains, trucks, buses, planes, etc. - good level of micromanagement - clear UI, perfect for this type of game - train crashes (if signals are wrong or tracks end in nowhere) I beat the game - every single mission - twice and guess I'll have a third run.

Still great after 10 years !
I bought this game back in 2004. I loved it then and I still love it today. A lot of people are comparing locomotion with Transport Tycoon, and like many other people I also played Transport Tycoon in the early years. When Locomotion came out, I dropped out of the Transport Tycoon era and started on this one. I think it's so much better for a number of reasons: I think Locomotion looks more realistic and the graphics have improved when compared to Transport Tycoon. Also the trains and vehicles look way better then in the previous game, and so does the tracks for the trains (I always hated the strange diagonal turns in Transport Tycoon)...but track-laying was better in Transport Tycoon (a click on the mouse for every piece of track in Locomotion). Only two points that really disappointed me. The first being the limits of the game, the small maps, and the limits for choosing vehicles and industries. The other one, the terrible AI for the game !! When I discovered the Transport Tycoon forums in 2006, a new world opened up for me...I found a lot of new downloads for the game, like new trains, road-vehicles, plains and ships. I also found great scenarios from great designers who spend hours of work for creating those new scenarios. I found new stations, city-buildings and new industries that could be used for the game. The most brilliant of all was the long station patch wich could be used to create much greater and better looking stations. There were absolutly great designers there who made the game even more addictive ! It all made me start to work on my own mods for the game as well wich are still downloaded today, like the Valuables and Foodmod for the game. Sometimes I'm still working on some new things, but most of all, it kept me playing and still keeps me playing this game today ! I would recommend this oldie for all tycoon-fans even after ten years, and with the new downloads that came out in that decennia it still holds it ground, even after 10 years !!

NO MULTIPLAYER
I love this game and I would give it a 5/5 star but I wont, because the gog version of this game has multiplayer disabled. I suggest to other people that really want to play this game to just go out and buy it straight from Atari (https://www.atari.com/buy-games/simulation/chris-sawyers-locomotion) its more expensive but at least it has multiplayer and a working CD key =/ I love gog but why the fuck no multiplayer... Why? There is also the option of OpenTTD it is free and has multiplayer And Yes multiplayer makes this game a hell of a lot more fun to play.
