Advanced Users

Advanced users of the Raildriver, who are interested in modifying and customizing the code for their RailDriver script (written in VB), can download the zip file below that contains a description and usage of Dovetail Games’ RailDriver.dll file, as well as a sample application (with source code).
**Note: This is only for use with Dovetail’s Train Simulator. This is not for developers wishing to integrate the RailDriver into their own software.
