My first summary after playing about 5 minutes:

The quality of the new variants is great. They even made the lightmodes of the CN a bit different (steplights) as it has another lightsystem as the other variants.
I especially like the SD70Mac. Amazing. (has the same sounds as the ACE)
The BNSF SD70ACE comes even in 2 variants: normal and with Wispercab

And there are again some bugs :
-The NS SD70 M-2 (not the others ) has the well-known problem of the right walkway (behind the engineer's seat) disappearing when inside the cab (this is also not fixed for the SD70 Volume 1 pack).
-The SD70Mac seems to lack the Train brake in the F4 controlscreen, although it's there in the cab and can be controlled (same problem as with the Dash 9s)

Scenarios:
-2 Standard - Four Minutes of Fun (SanB to Barstow), Black Wheat (Castle Rock)
-2 Carrer - Face the Summit, Return of the Mac (both SanB to Barstow), Springs for the Springs (Castle Rock)
-2 Freeroam - SD70s at Barstow (SanB to Barstow), SD70s at Monument (Castle Rock)

They look sweet. Low on funds right now, maybe next sale I'll pick this pack up.

For all of you still hesitating if to buy the pack: RS.com has included a small, but great "Easter Egg" for all freight fans.
I just say 3-bay Hopper.

Does this answer your question:

(EDIT: Don't forget to copy the Wagon.proxyxml file into the dlc's sound folder otherwise you can't enjoy krellnut's sounds with this hopper.)

I got it working by putting all the new sound files into the DLC freight car audio folders then copying the Wagon Freight.proxyxml file into the folders and renamed it Wagon.proxyxml.

I also found our new covered hopper. Very nice little bonus.

ok i got it. wonder why they changed the name of the file???
