There will be scenarios for 2 routes, a UK and a USA route - I'd love to do a European one as well but I don't think there are any even vaguely close to suitable.
Obviously I have a lot of experience with UK routes. For the USA route - I'd love the advice of this forum please. What route would be most suitable? What kind of scenarios would you enjoy?


I think a few quick drive consists will allow any player to run the loco coupled to some wagons on any route as a steam excursion train in any era. You don't plan on including any wagons? Period passenger cars are scarce, AFAIK there are no troop sleepers or canteen cars.

The Connie came with scenarios for Horseshoe Curve, the only steam are route available as commercial DLC. HSC has the appropriate steam era cars and a P70 passenger coach you could use in scenarios.

Personally, I use the RWA donation ware route as my "museum exhibition route", it has that nice retro look and feel. Or one of the Workshop routes.

That's great information thank you.
There is a bunch of WW2-era stock to be included, primarily USATC rolling stock, that was used all over the world and there will be dozens of Quick Drives covering all the liveries.

Last blog post for S160 liveries! Starting next week, rolling stock - a lot of which is lend-lease equipment courtesy of Uncle Sam :D

I can also confirm that the S160 pack will come with 3 scenarios for the Horseshoe Curve route using the US liveries, with scenarios for other routes to cover the UK and Europe.

Ohh a tank load *!lol!* Nicely done, these will go perfect for Horseshoe Curve.

If you read the whole thread you would discover he specifically mentions a livery for the Alaska Rail Road so your wish will come true.
