PuTTY is a pretty accurate [free] VT emulator, particularly if you apply the non-default settings found in this Migration Specialties guide for OpenVMS and Tru64 Unix compatibility:
http://www.migrationspecialties.com/pdf/PuTTY_Settings.pdf

You could also select the original DEC MCS character set (which came on the VT200) instead of ISO-8859-1 (LATIN-1 West Europe) and get similar results. A few characters with the high bit set are slightly different, but they are pretty close.

PuTTY behaves the same on Windows or Linux. I'm running it on Windows 10 and Linux Mint 19.1 and see no real difference other than the out-of-band keystrokes (like copy/paste and menu activation).
