The Steam version does include four 1958 fictional excursion scenarios on the Boston and Albany route. It is stated that there will be some added detailing of the locomotive and car interiors, although they were very well done in the original release from Machine Rail. https://www.machine-rail.com/product-page/cópia-de-1921-wm-blw-h9-weathered-fireball EDIT: for corrections
I dont think it does, the Steam version will only has the scenarios, which are a fictional excursion service set in the 50's.
From ElphabaWS As mentioned in the DTL article, "In a special four-part career scenario, you’ll climb aboard NYC&HR No. 999 for an end-to-end run of the Train Simulator Classic Boston & Albany: Boston Springfield route (which was part of the New York Central) for a fictional 1958 excursion run celebrating the 60th anniversary of No. 999’s record-setting speed run." There are no changes to the B&A route assets. Some additional refinements have been made to the locomotive and rolling stock for the Steam release.
