Description

The mixed-traffic Class 35 diesel-hydraulic locomotive is now available for Train Simulator in BR green livery.

The hydraulic transmission fitted to the Class 35 locomotives gave them their affectionate nickname of ‘Hymeks’ and, at the time they were built, were the most powerful diesel-hydraulic locomotive operating with a single engine. They were popular sights at the head of semi-fast and freight trains across the Western Region of the British rail network during the 1960s.

A total of 101 models were produced by Beyer Peacock between 1961 and 1964, although their operational life was relatively short – withdrawals began in 1971 and were completed by 1975. A total of four locomotives have survived into preservation.

The Class 35 for Train Simulator is available in British Railways green livery and is a former Iron Horse House model, which has been updated to Train Simulator standard, including new scenarios and improved exterior modelling. Also included are BR Mk1 passenger coaches in chocolate and cream livery.

The locomotive is also Quick Drive compatible, giving you the freedom to drive the BR Class 35 on any Quick Drive enabled route for Train Simulator, such as those available through Steam. Also included are scenarios specifically for The Riviera Line: Exeter-Paignton route (available separately and required to play these scenarios).

As with just about all DTG's trains and releases, the cab and details inside and out are always pleasing. However, the sounds are less than adequate. I know this would mean getting someone out there to record the sounds

It's 35 years+ since I last saw these running near my house, but this seems to have the essence of what I remember. Visual modelling is rather good, with the exhaust plume being both dynamic (to a degree) and not too

Very dissapointing. Engine sound is a class 37! Hello.. this is a Maybach engine. Good model, but if I had known this I would not have purchased. Zero out of ten I'm afraid.

Only recommended in the DLC sales I'm afraid. The good points: The model is nice looking and looks well made. I do like the cabview including the gimmick pie in the oven that gives this pack a bit of a sense of humour

Maybe it's not the most detailed loco you can buy as a DLC here. The textures are quite ok, sounds are rather poor but for sure no other locos have an oven on its board with the food inside, and you can even operate it
