Younger brains

A more recent study in South Korea in 2015 made an even more incredible discovery. Researchers found that people who feel younger actually have the structural characteristics of a younger brain. The study participants, who had an average age of 71, underwent brain scans and psychosocial surveys. The brain scans showed that seniors who said they felt younger than their chronological age had more grey matter in the parts of the brain that usually shrink as you age and your health declines.

Furthermore, the people who felt younger scored higher on memory tests, were less likely to report depressive symptoms and considered their health to be better. While these findings do not completely prove that simpling feeling young means your brain is physically younger, this research is consistent with a growing body of research suggesting that brain health plays a big role in how we feel, including whether we feel our actual age.

Wow, so you also have to say that you feel younger and your brain adapts. GREAT !

My opinion about TSC is that it has an outstanding richness of resources, even though it carries core issues of the past.
No doubt for me that it beats the TSW group by several lengths. TSW is just a graphics cards seller. Nothing else.
But the possibility of so abundant resources, with a lot of them freeware, is significant and not found anywhere else.
I am sure I won´t buy the new TS2024. I just don´t have addiction to passenger trains like most of our over-the-pond friends have. But I celebrate that after 15 years, DTG is still doing efforts, updating and keeping TSC alive.

My reply to Buzz is what I wrote before (I quoted my earlier post in that reply). Anyway you can read in what I wrote what you want. You probab ly hav e more statistics available but I am sure the complainer are in the lower age groups.

In the mean time I just hope in the future we will have a dual TSC with two game engines. One that makes sure all current stuff still works fine. And one that has a more up to date standard that will run special routes and stock created for that. and of course, all this from within the same game.

This what TSW has attempted to do.

But I always get an error running TSC routes on TSW. :-)

I do not know the DTG businesscase studies in regards to the new TSN. But support from the TSC community seems of utmost importance. And imho they will only get that with backwards compatibility.

Buzz is younger than me.

Although I am a bit burned out at the moment, I have a variety of "train games." The train driving RPG, TSWx, the model railroad sim, Trainz, and the actual train simulator, TSC. They all have value for what they are, but (I still call it) Railworks is probably the best balanced of them all.

That is easy
