This would presumably be the first three or four issues. I believe that they only had a relatively low print run as there was still an element of testing the market and they have long, long been sold out. Possibly your best chance is one of the specialist booksellers or those that specialise in magazine back numbers: the Vintage Carriages Trust is one (sorry, can’t do a link).

Just 1994? or also later years?

When was it renamed from Entrain?

It it Today's Railways UK which was formerly Entrain. Today's Railways (as it started out in the 90s) is now Today's Railways Europe.

There are two Today’s Railways: Europe and UK. The Europe version has been called Today’s Railways since it started in 1994, but with Europe later added to the title to differentiate it from the UK edition. The UK version was originally entrain but changed its name to Today’s Railways UK around 2001.

Ok, so to be clear, the OP is looking for the European version rather than the UK version

Have you tried mailing Platform 5? They used regularly to advertise back numbers in TRE.
If I haven't miscounted, #1 was June-July 1994.

The January 2021 (dated) edition of TRU shows back numbers available from number 4 onwards, with a few gaps. The first three are long gone and I am not selling mine.

Nor mine. Rather more by luck, at the start, than judgment I have a full series, bound as well.
