    Absolutely! I saw a talk at Develop last year from some of the Farming Simulator team, and they said a huge chunk of their audience are farmers.

    Tons of pilots play flight simulators. I believe the same also applies to Euro/American Truck Simulator, based on the community discussions I’ve seen. I’d be surprised if the same wasn’t true for train sims too.

      I had heard anecdotes about how railworkers try to weed out train guys because the train guy aspect tends to override the railworker aspect which ends out being a problem.
