About This Content Expand your Train Simulator collection with this state-of-the-art powerful, mixed traffic Class 68 locomotive.The diesel-electric Class 68, initially built between 2013 and 2014 for Direct Rail Services, was derived from the Eurolight family of locomotives and known as the UKLight by manufacturer Vossloh.An order of 15 locomotives was placed by DRS in January 2012 for use on passenger and intermodal operations around the UK, the first locomotive to be built, 68001 Evolution was sent to the Czech Republic for extensive testing of its power and reliability. The first to enter the UK, 68002 Intrepid arrived in January 2014.DRS mainly use their new locomotives to haul container freight services, however their signed agreement between themselves and Venice-Simplon Orient Express sees Class 68s hauling the Northern Belle service from time to time.With 3800 horsepower, a top speed of 100mph and a hefty weight of 85 tons, the ultra-modern Class 68 is a perfect example of a mixed traffic locomotive, being able to haul heavy freight loads and perform mainline passenger services with ease.The Train Simulator British Rail Class 68 is available in ScotRail Saltire Livery and recreates the locomotive as it operates today for ScotRail over Edinburgh - Glasgow. The pack also includes appropriate Mk2e coaches in ScotRail Saltire livery as well as a trio of challenging and engaging career scenarios for the route.ScenariosThe ScotRail Class 68 Loco Add-on includes three career scenario for the Edinburgh – Glasgow route (available separately and required to play those scenarios):ScotRail SaviourScotRail Saviour: Return TripA Helping HandMore scenarios are available on Steam Workshop online and in-game.

It sounds accurate and operates as it should. Really worth the full price as there's no complaints.One bug, the second tone of the horn can be mute sometimes I load this loco.. Very good model but the way the key binding is for the brakes is \u2665\u2665\u2665\u2665\u2665\u2665\u2665\u2665. It's a similar system to the class 66 where the braking is adjustable pressure not steped but its the emergency setting at the end of the handle that has stumped DTG into making a working braking system. When the key is tapped for pressure to be applied to the brakes, you roll the RNG dice for normal braking or full emergency..

When the key is tapped for pressure to be applied to the brakes, you roll the RNG dice for normal braking or full emergency.. This loco has a very detailed cab and the sounds are brillone of the best DTG locos yet. As most of you are probably well aware, locomotives released by Dovetail usually tend to lag far behind the third party add ons for Train Simulator, with many of the older ones being nothing short of shambolic for the prices charged. However, the Class 68, to my absolute delight, is an exception to this. The audio for the loco isn't quite Armstrong Powerhouse standard but it really is a joy to listen to - it sounds great. The engines could be a little more bassy to match the real life sounds, but in all honesty it sounds pretty good anyway. It is also delightful to look at. The class 68 is modelled perfectly with lots of tiny details adding to the immersion. The Mk 2 coaches look a little off but they do the job perfectly well. The loco still lacks a lot of basic cab features such as a DSD, but there are also a lot of nice little features included such as dynamic cab and desk lighting which can be made more or less bright by turning a switch. The Class 68 also comes with a nice little train management system which tracks usage stats for each different numbered loco. When driving the loco you really get a sense of the power behind it and the bassy roar is nice to listen to. A few more run sounds at high speed wouldn't go a miss. It is very easy to accidentally put the train into the emergency break seting, but rather than this being a mark against it's quality, I'd say that it takes a little practice to get used to.I don't usually write reviews this in depth but I felt compelled to because I really do think this is the best locomotive that DTG have released to date, and at \u00a35.99 in the summer sale it is an absolute bargain. I'd recommend this at full price.. Ok, to start, I can say the train is decent, to say the least, but it currently serves little purpose, which i'll state why later.The Class 68's runs pretty well, although I do think the sounds are a little too quiet on the engine. As for the MK2e coaches, the coach numbers are COMPLETELY wrong (I've edited my number files to change them), and if i'm not mistaken Abellio Scotrail only use the TSO's and BSO's (based off of their current formations)Now, the reason why this serves little purpose is the route DTG decided to include this for pretty much only lets the 68 properly run between Haymarket and Edinburgh, since they're used on the Peak Hour Fife Circle services. Other that that, routewise, WCML North is the only other route where they run on (when they run ECS from Motherwell\/Mossend to Edinburgh via Carstairs)Overall, I give this a 10\/17.
