ok so ive always had AMD GPUs so im wondering what I need to do to get this awesome card working tip top with railworks, ive already got the newest NVidia driver sitting and waiting on my desktop, I went to EVGA and got their XOC too, so what about settings and other things?

There is some performance difference depending on the particular model you got. I haven't used any of the Nvidia software tweaks so far, only in game settings, I just installed the card and drivers then fired up games, in TS2017 I'm getting a very steady 60fps.

NEC and 35-40 FPS I haven't used NVIDIAS tweaks just in game, those FPS are with everything on high and anti-alias off completely

This is my build after buying the 1060, Train Sim is on a solid state raid drive, it's not bleeding edge parts but they are somewhat towards the upper end of the scale.
CPU Intel i5-6600K LGA1151
RAM Corsair Dominator Platinum 16GB DDR4
Mobo ASUS ROG Maximus VIII Hero
GPU ASUS ROG STRIX-GTX1060-O6G
I'm seeing near 100% utilization on the GPU but only about 40% on the CPU.

Are you running GForce experience? I just checked NEC here and I'm getting between 70-90FPS.
