Train Sim World® 6: West Coast Main Line: Crewe - Preston Route Add-On (DLC)

This route suits players who enjoy slow, deliberate train driving and want a taste of British railways in the 1980s. There is no rush here: you pull heavy trains, watch the signals and take stations with care, while the scenery of North West England sets an unhurried pace. What to expect: - Early on, your time goes to Merry-Go-Round coal trains running from the Bickershaw and Parkside mines to Fiddlers Ferry, where you have to keep an eye on weight and not rush the climbs. - Passenger expresses through Warrington and Wigan offer a different tempo: faster, more precise, and with a timetable you have to hold. - Locomotives from different eras and classic liveries create a lively picture of the 80s, and HAA, HEA and Mk2 coaches look good alongside them. - The route links with other British add-ons, so the schedule stays varied, and runs north to Carlisle open up long stretches of track.

Take in the sights and sounds of 1980s action with Just Trains’ 2nd stretch of the classic West Coast Main Line, between Crewe and Preston, in Train Sim World. From pit to power station, go full-throttle - or not, as the case may be - on Britain’s iconic merry-go-round coal trains, and wind through Warrington & Wigan on express passenger duties. The West Coast Main Line was built by many smaller companies during the birth of the railway era. Following the Grand Junction Railway’s arrival into historic Crewe from Warrington, the North Union Railway extended north, taking rails through Wigan and Preston. By 1846 a full connection all the way from London to Carlisle had been established. In Train Sim World, get to work across a busy section of 1980s West Coast Main Line on a variety of mixed-traffic trains. Play your part in keeping the lights on by transporting, shunting and delivering coal-laden Merry-Go-Round services between Bickershaw and Parkside collieries to Fiddlers Ferry Power Station, or make good use of the national grid by powering at speed through the North-West of England aboard electric-hauled expresses. At your disposal is the BR Class 86/4, a versatile subclass of the iconic AC electric fleet, capable of working in multiple with other locos on both passenger and freight haulage. Supporting alongside is the hard-working and upgraded duo of the Class 20/0 and Class 47/3, both of which sport Slow Speed controls for crawling with their coal. Featuring a myriad of classic liveries, all motive power will look the part while hauling all-new HAA hoppers, upgraded HEA hoppers, and air-con equipped Mk2 coaches. Embark across an intense and varied 1986 timetable which, as well as making use of the diverse stock included, takes advantage of almost every backdated UK add-on in Train Sim World, as well as Cargo Line Vol.5 - Nuclear! From express parcels to light engine moves and shunting, a cavalcade of classic British traction awaits on non-stop action. (Layered content available separately). And the journey doesn’t end there!
