About This Content The Norfolk Southern Big 7s add-on brings two variations of the GE Dash 7 locomotive to Train Simulator. The 3,600 horsepower four-axle GE B36-7 was built from 1980 until 1985 as successor to the famous U36B ‘U-Boats’. Of the 230 locomotives produced, Seaboard System Railroad (which became part of CSX Transportation in 1986) and Conrail purchased the majority between them. CSX became the last Class 1 railroad to include B36-7s in operational rosters. The six-axle GE C36-7 predates the four-axle variant, having first been produced in 1978. Unlike the B36-7, however, the majority were exported to overseas markets. The Norfolk Southern Big 7s for Train Simulator, developed by DigitalTrainModel, includes both the GE B36-7 High Nose and Low Nose variants, plus GE C36-7 ph1 AD, ph1 GSC and ph2 GSC variants in Norfolk Southern livery, and non-driver models as ‘dead’ rolling stock. Other features include class lights, step lights and number board lights, speed recorder, ditch lights and animated front and rear mirrors.The locomotives are also Quick Drive compatible, giving you the freedom to drive the Norfolk Southern Big 7s on any Quick Drive enabled route for Train Simulator, such as those available through Steam. Also included are scenarios specifically for the Norfolk Southern Coal District route (available separately and required to play these scenarios).ScenariosFive scenarios for the Norfolk Southern Coal District route:At the NS’ Beat: Part 1At the NS’ Beat: Part 2Signal to SignalThe Horse PowerTypical WorkMore scenarios are available on Steam Workshop online and in-game.

Great locomotives in this pack. The locomotives that come with this pack are feature-laden, high quality and just voerall incredibly fun to drive. Very fun to pull massive coal trains with. While the NS Coal District and Horseshoe Curve could be used with this locomotive, I wish they had a 1990s Conrail\/NS mainline route. Besides that, this locomotive is absolutely incredible.This includes several versions of similar locos:B36-7 Low NoseB36-7 High NoseC36-7 Ph1 ADC36-7 Ph1 GSCC36-7 Ph2 GSC. I just like these engines. Nothing else......... DERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!. Very great model DTM goes great job on thhir engines heck they even got a good horn hoever let me tell you the down sides of it bell is a bit quiet class lights lower frame rate ( just for me depends on your machine) and horn is not too respsonisve so you can't do a horn show such as shave and hair cut or jingles bells other than that its a great model. This is a good loco pack, with some cool variations and variety in how you can run the Big-7's. The things that suck about this pack are: Horns are new, but they sound weird, No new cars, and the paint schemes could be better.. Really worth the wait, sounds are fantastic. down to the bell button, I say that because when you turn off the bell. A small bit of air pressure releases. I'm hoping DTG can do that with the horns to at some point to? As everything is powered by air pressure. One little thing I saw that I thought was strange was, when you turn the ditch lights on you can't hit the J button on your keyboard to turn them on\/off or if it's a NS\/CSX locomotive flashing\/non-flashing? You either can turn them off, or on, or flashing non- stop. But overall I think I'll have a lot of fun with these bad boys. And got them for $9.00 to!. No tail lights on them just a black box where they would be!
