Train Simulator: Return To Maerdy Loco Add-On Free Download [Crack Serial Key - http://ssurll.com/10a43u
About This Content Following the much-loved ‘Memories of Maerdy’ add-on from Mesh Tools is the stunning new ‘Return to Maerdy’ add-on for Train Simulator, complete with the unique English Electric Type 3B Battery Locomotive and WD Hunslet 0-6-0ST ‘Austerity’.The real-life Maerdy branch was in South Wales, running from Porth to Maerdy Colliery, following the River Rhondda. Originally owned by the Taff Vale Railway, it was used as a coal mining freight railway and continued into service when the Great Western Railway took it over in 1923. The line also ran passenger services from Porth, stopping at Ynyshir, Pontygwaith, Tylorstown and Ferndale. The line continued up to the Colliery as freight only, privately owned by the NCB.The last passenger train on the branch ran on 15th June 1964 before services ended as part of the Beeching cuts, just leaving coal trains running to Maerdy Colliery. The track was lifted in 1987, though the colliery didn’t close until 1990. Today, many of the bridges remain and the line is a cycle path, however the track bed South of Tylorstown is now gone, and the remains of the stations and bridges have been removed and replaced by the Porth and Lower Rhondda Fach Relief Road.Included with this highly detailed Colliery extension to the Maerdy branch are two unique locomotives – the English Electric Type 3B battery locomotive and the WD ‘Austerity’ 0-6-0ST steam locomotive.The English Electric Type 3B was a class of four wheel electric locomotives built by English Electric between 1921 and 1951, mostly at the Dick Kerr Works in Preston. The locomotives could be powered by batteries or from overhead wires, with voltage, power and weight adaptable, making few of the Class actually the same. All locomotives had a central Steeple cab with sloping bonnets either side, which could either be filled with ballast, such as concrete or scrap metal, or banks of lead acid batteries if the locomotive was battery powered.The Hunslet ‘Austerity’ was an 0-6-0ST shunting engine designed by R.A. Riddles for the War department. The design evolved many years before from the Class 48150 0-6-0ST produced by Hunslet; these small tank engines were then developed by Hunslet into the class 50550, a much heavier and more powerful engine.In total 377 ‘Austerity’ locomotives were produced for the War Department up until 1947. After the war, the NCB ordered 77 new ‘Austerity’ models for use in its collieries. The NCB continued to use these locomotives well into the 1980s, long after steam on the mainline had come to an end.ScenariosFour scenarios for the route:Over TimeAfternoon ArrivalsUp and Down, Slip and SlideTraining TimeMore scenarios are available on Steam Workshop online and in-game.

A great route with a great train! I like the way how DTG have really made the line look worn and the rough riding track has been simulated very well! We need more industrial routes in TS.. i think this is a good map with good modeling and fun to race down BUT reason this got a dislike is because the two engines it comes with it doesnt let me drive it under its own power BUT if anyone knows how to fix this it might get a like and a better report. The locos are extroardinarily well done, very well simulated operations. Excellent train handling, everything well modeled, an all around great DLC in my opinion. If you're into steam or industrial operations, I think you'll enjoy it.. Simply wonderful, though a distinct lack of liveries for the Austerity. But still really recommend this.. This is qutie an improvement from the old maerdy dlc.this is my experience with the dlc engines. the battery loco is quite, and powerful powerful, but not very fast; perfect for work in claustrophobic environments, and dock yards. the saddle tankengine is better than before, with fantastic physics, and the wheels stop spining, and slip when you apply the breaks, and slippery situation. over all the engines are great.. It expands a bit on the Memories of Maerdy addon, but it's not a requirement. The Austerity and Type 3B are well done, and offer some interesting career scenarios. The route is accessible from Quick Drive. The DLC features your more advanced scripting you expect from MeshTools, and overall is a nice little addon if you're a fan of shunting.. The route is an accurate Representation of what the Line looked like after Dr. Richard Beeching shut down the passenger portion of the line and gave their traffic to buses. The Engines, with exception of the Maerdy Monster, were the engines used in the Colliery until it's closure in 1984, with the last load coming down from the closed coliiery in 1985 before the rails were ripped up in 1986.The battery shunters are a ton of fun to drive, despite being slow and whatnot. they still capture that spirit of the Branchline in it's Twilight Glory years. I really find this fun. Driving trains down what is being represented-The end of an era. It does feel like the line truly is on it's last legs. As I write this review, I will say, it is an experience, both saddening and positive. Saddening because it is the end of an Era and positive because you can decide the fate of these engine.I found the route to be worth the money and then some. The engines, the wagons and the detail makes it worth it.. The J94 saddle tank is charming and really nice to drive with! The Type 3B is cute and not difficult to handle. Bought it in sale, no regrets! :D Amazing add-on! :D. DIRTY!!..Dirty scruffy grey bastard of a thing!Moody, demanding firebreathing dragon!Absolutely lovable once you learn her ways..able to drive without the number display eventually.. Injectors took a while to work out..few dry boilers until thenTurn the steam on..then ease in the water tap..if you hear steam blast its too much... I thought its a bug..its not.. You just cant hear it flowing over all the other noise at firstAnd noisy she is! Deafening at full throttle..pleasantly eardrum damagingly noisy just running at 15mphForget your big engines..if you want a REAL steam engine thats demanding and yet rewarding once you truly learn the art of steam..get thisShes not a pretty engine.. But youll be hard pressed to find a more lovable oneOh..and yeah you get a battery loco.. Its...nice..beautiful.. But...J94 outshines it :)
