Railworks America

Brazilian site with national packages for Train Simulator, has been growing every day. It has paid content and also free (mostly wagons).

Take a look at the news, and follow the Facebook page, is where they post the latest updates daily. Very reasonable and affordable value (taking into account that in Brazil the currency is real, so 45 reais is worth just over $ 14, for very good models.

Some very interesting models on this site, including metre gauge diesel locos (4 packs to date) and (free) metre gauge wagons (7 packs). Of particular interest is a pack of US-liveried GE BB36-7 metre gauge locos which might well feel at home on the Clear Creek and Durango & Silverton routes. Be aware that the BB36-7s are dependent on the DTM 'Big 7s' pack.

I agree. I wouldn't mind running the included stock as a "what if" modern-day Clear Creek.

This is all cool, but where is the narrow gauge route they are running on in the video?

You need to purchase that route directly from the Durango and Silverton people.

Do you (anyone) happen to know if payware download links are sent by email?

Yes, ssbobz,

Payware download links are sent by email. You should expect a response within 24 hours (but remember that this is quite probably a one-man admin setup, with another (non-digital) life to attend to).

The email will come from Guto (Carlos Augusto Nicolucci <carlosanicolucci@gmail.com>) and will include the download link and a decryption key.

Kind regards,

I should have followed up my post but it was indeed as you said and pretty quick too, under 12 hours I think.

I bought the GP18 pack and it's quite good quality imo.

Do you know if the locos / cars are US guage, or a metric guage? The G12's and GL8's would fit nicely on an NdeM based route.

It appears most of them are standard aside from the ones that have "bitola metrica" (metric gauge).

I noticed the G12's were a free download, so I gave them a try. Definitely narrow gauge (I think metric at that). Couldn't even couple up to a caboose. Would love to see these released in US standard gauge for Mexico use. The exterior was nicely done, but cab interior and viewings looking outside from inside the cab are from the PRR HorseShoe Curve Geep. Would love to see a Brazilian route released so we can run this content.

^I think routes like Clear Creek can suffice for now

I use Durango & Silverton.

Metre-gauge routes...

The two recent Japanese routes are metre-gauge, as are the recent South African routes. Then there's Albula, and a couple of Gor's Spanish routes...

Kind regards,

How are the sounds on these?
