TRS2006 Official Content Provider

Welcome to my TrainzObjectz web site. This is where I let my hair down and concentrate on the fun things in life (Trainz to be precise) rather than the serious stuff you can find on the main TaFWeb Software site.

At present there are several pieces of software, a couple of layouts, and probably the largest collection of UK shops, factories, houses, etc. for Trainz that you will find on any independent web site. These are all available from the Download Section as well as Auran's Download Station. I am adding to these quite frequently, so keep an eye on the list of new additions below. Feel free to browse around and download what you like. Everything is entirely FREE, but if you feel you would like to help support this web site please see our Downloads page. Comments are welcome, but I cannot guarantee to reply to every e-mail.

Have fun!

News from Auran

  • Auran has now announced Service Pack 1 for Trainz 2006 which fixes a number of issues reported by users. The initial release is for the International version (Build 2761 ONLY) - the SP for other (language) versions will follow. The download size is a hefty 638MB, but you can order the Service Pack on CD for just the price of postage is you prefer to wait. Details of the Service Pack and complete installation instructions are available here.

  • Trainz Railroad Simulator 2006 (TRS2006) sets new standards of realism and immersion in operating a virtual railroad TRS2006 ships with fully realized routes that include a wide range of activities users can immediately enjoy. Run long haul freight services, high-speed passenger runs or challenging yard operations as you service a huge variety of interactive stations and industries. TRS2006 significantly enhances the driving experience with improvements to the physics engine, adding to the challenge of keeping your train performing efficiently. With thousands of items available for free on Auran’s Download Station including hundreds of locomotives and extra routes. TRS2006 includes a new asset management utility, making it easier for users to access and organize their content. The Trainz tools and rules system have also been greatly improved to give you more flexibility than ever before in creating your own railroad experience. TRS2006 is the most complete railroad simulator ever developed!

    For details of the key features in TRS2006, go to Auran's web site. You can also order TRS2006 at Auran's on-line shop.


We are proud once again to be associated with the latest version of Trainz. In addition to the content included in Trainz 1.3, Trainz UTC and TRS2004, we have an additional 43 items included as built-in content in TRS2006. The TRS2006 objects are also available as separate downloads for use with earlier versions of Trainz. The TRS2004 objects are not available for separate download.


Using my content in TRS2006

Nearly all of my content should transfer into TRS2006 without problems, but a few items have been updated for TRS2006 so that they do not show errors in Content Manager Plus.

Downloading to TRS2004 when TRS2006 is also installed

A number of people have asked if it is possible to download items to TRS2004 when they also have TRS2006 installed on the same machine. The answer is "Yes", and this article explains how to do it.

Statement Regarding Payware Content

Auran have announced that they are to provide support for third-party "payware" content (content you have to pay for as opposed to "freeware"). While I have nothing against payware I would like it to be known that I do not intend to follow this path - everything I produce (except items included as built-in content in Trainz) is free, and I intend to keep it that way. However, there arises the question of payware layouts which include some of my free content. My policy is that you can use any of my content in a payware layout provided that (a) you do not try to claim the content as your own, (b) you do not charge for the content itself (only for the layout) and (c) you tell me that you have used my content. Regardless of anything which might appear in the licence (which may have been written before payware was thought about) there is no need for you to seek prior permission from me. I believe that Auran may require payware layout authors to seek written permission from freeware creators like myself. You can take this announcement as being written permission for that purpose.
