Out 16 February: Glasgow Airport Rail Link optimized for TS2012
GARL 16 February

The best is back – and even better! One of our most popular expansion packs, the Glasgow Airport Rail Link (GARL) is undergoing upgrade work to optimize it for TS2012, enabling users to get the best out of this fantastic modern image UK route.
 
GARL is modelled on the proposed (but never built) rail link from Glasgow Central to Glasgow Airport, and features key landmarks along the way including Glasgow Central and the proposed Glasgow Airport terminus.

OUT NOW: Class 390 Optimized for TS2012 AND Class 390+WCML Twin Pack!
Class 390 optimized

Available on Steam now! Class 390 optimized PLUS Class 390 & West Coast Main Line Twin Pack!

WOODHEAD LINE OUT NOW!
Woodhead Line out now

The Woodhead Line, complete with Class 76 electric locomotive, is now available as an expansion pack for Train Simulator 2012. Running from Sheffield to Manchester, the Woodhead Line was a vital link across the Pennines for the transportation of coal, and of course passengers. Electrification of the line in the 1950s saw the introduction of the Class 76 (as it later became known by British Rail), which hauled trains over the viaducts and through the famous Woodhead Tunnels alongside the steam locomotives of the day. Traffic reduced in the 1970s and the line finally closed in the early 1980s. <... [click here for more]

PRR K4 available February 9
PRR K4

Available from February 9! A real treat for US steam fans, the classic PRR K4 is coming to Train Simulator 2012 next month. From 1914 right through to the end of Pennsy steam in 1957, K4s were the Pennsylvania Railroad’s premier steam passenger locomotive and were familiar to passengers across the northeast United States. The K4 soon proved its worth and became known, rather grandly, as ‘the standard passenger locomotive of the world’. A grand total of 425 examples were produced by PRR in Altoona and by the Baldwin Locomotive Works, many of which received modifications and improvements over th... [click here for more]
