About This Content The re-engineered, multi-purpose Class 57 locomotive in special Rail Tours livery, with scenarios created for the Settle-Carlisle route, is now available for Train Simulator.Rebuilt from the Class 47, the Class 57s entered service in 1997 and are affectionately known as ‘Bodysnatchers’ or ‘Zombies’, by virtue of their modification from the Class 47 body shell. There were 33 Class 57s produced between 1998 and 2004 by Brush Traction at their Loughborough factory, and can still be seen on a number of mixed-traffic duties that include passenger and charter services, snow trains and rescue duties for the likes of Direct Rail Services, First Great Western, Virgin Trains and Network Rail.The Class 57 for Train Simulator is available in Rail Tours Company maroon livery and features a number of exciting scenarios, including rail tours along the famous and spectacular Settle to Carlisle line.The Settle-Carlisle Add-On (available separately) is required to play the scenarios included with this add-on.ScenariosSix scenarios for the Settle-Carlisle Line (also available on Steam).Early BirdsSouthern BellSpecial RequestThe Statesman DuplicateStuck in the MiddleThe Scottish OriginalKey FeaturesClass 57 diesel locomotive in Rail Tours Company maroon liveryRail Tours Company Mk1 coachesRealistic cab interior and soundsQuick Drive compatible 7aa9394dea Title: Train Simulator: Class 57 Rail Tour Loco Add-OnGenre: SimulationDeveloper:Oovee® Game StudiosPublisher:Dovetail Games - TrainsFranchise:Train SimulatorRelease Date: 8 Nov, 2012 Train Simulator: Class 57 Rail Tour Loco Add-On Download Rar File Great value for money, if your looking for a railtour engine, all scenario's work. Quick Drive, is fantastic, on Western Line of Scotland if you own that DLC. Also, has a cold start function, so plenty of in cab thngs to do. Layout is well done as well.Is it value for money at list price? Yes, I would say so. Please note there is no passenger view from the train. I personally don't find this an issue, though some users do like\/prefer passenger view.Sound is good as well. I use this engine regular, I bought it on an offer with 50% off, so I consider this purchase to have been extrememly good value for money..

The Rail Tours Class 57 is pretty much te same loco as the Freightliner Class 57 when it comes to features and quality. Even their manuals are almost the same. This one hauls passenger coaches, has a different livery and scenarios for the Settle-Carlisle route. Here's a pro\/con summary:+ visuals and sounds are OK. the addon is quite old but I've seen newer addons that looked worse+ cold start! and some other features like a power restriction until the engine warms up or faults popping up when the driver isn't operating the loco properly+ instrument and cab lights+ NINE hours of scenario play. yep, four of those scenarios are 120-minute long- you are only able to look around the cab to some extent. this means for sure that the back side of the cab has not been implemented at all.- no passenger view- IMO this addon could be merged with Freightliner Class 57 since they are so similar. Fortunately you can get both on sale from time to time :). OK, time to review this one.

Fortunately you can get both on sale from time to time :). A worthwhile add-on to lookout for when on sale. 6 scenarios mostly ranging between 60min to 120min so it'll keep you busy for awhile with plenty of potential for excursion scenarios in the workshop. The included Class 57 has been out since 2012 but is still nicely detailed and sounding for it's age but pretty much the same to the Freightliner Class 57.Being classed as a pro there's a tad more to do with operating it. The loco has a cold start operation, useable park brake buttons, movable key for the reverser, two-tone horn and usable cab and instrument panel light switches. For a taste of something different there is also a newspaper that'll slide along the dash when entering curves. The loco is easy to drive once you get the hang of it but you'll need to think a few seconds ahead as the power takes a few seconds to kick in when adjusting the throttle.Only downside i've seen is the lack of passenger view from the included coaches but these days once you've sat in a MK1 coach you've seen them all..
