Just Trains' first locomotive Add-on is releasing soon! Climb aboard the Class 86 from 15th July and see the loco in action in two preview livestreams! We revealed a comprehensive article in May detailing everything you need to know about the gameplay coming from this Add-on, in addition to the series of Development Blog entries published by Just Trains themselves. This classic electric locomotive brings additional gameplay to the longest UK route in Train Sim World: West Coast Main Line: Preston - Carlisle. For players that need a refresh on UK tap changer operation or for those new to this type of locomotive, Just Trains have produced a Manual for the Class 86. In addition to the Class 86, this Add-on also introduces new Mk2F coaches and the highly-requested Mk1 RMB, or "Restaurant Miniature Buffet", which is staffed! At the counter is a selection of items on display depicting the sort of fare available during the BR era, including sandwiches, drinks and sweet treats! In case you missed it, you can see a glimpse of the Class 86 in action in our Walkaround Video. Get Prepared: Steam Summer Sale Steam players without WCML: Preston - Carlisle can prepare before release with 16% off in the Summer Sale, ending on 10th July. Blackpool Branches which adds Class 142 layers to the WCML route, is also in the sale at 34% off.

As I said I the other threads, fantastic - all other priorities rescinded! With regard to the concerns though, I don’t think they were entirely unreasonable. It was unprecedented to have a release announcement without a date and then to wait nearly two months without any news or updates. Anyhow water under the bridge now, counting the days until 15th July!
