Content Summary
Cargo Line Vol.2 - Aggregates brings further freight haulage to four busy, British Train Sim World routes, courtesy of the ubiquitous Class 66. Players will operate services in and out of yards featuring loading / unloading facilities before moving out onto the main lines through the Midlands and the South. Or work diverted trains through Kent in two separate Scenarios.
Both Train Sim World 4 and either Train Sim World Compatible: Midland Main Line or Great Western Express are required to make use of services and Scenarios in this gameplay pack, with additional Scenarios available for Southeastern Highspeed.
The pack includes:
- NEW HOA Bogie Hopper Wagon
- In VTG branded, unbranded and graffitied forms

- NEW Great Western Express gameplay
- 3 NEW Scenarios & 10+ NEW timetable services
- NEW Southeastern Highspeed gameplay
- 2 NEW Scenarios & Additional timetable services on other routes using SEHS rolling stock
Across these route Add-ons Scenarios and services are centred around the loading, unloading and movement of aggregates. On Great Western Express, this makes use of the existing facilities in the game and on Midland Main Line, the yard at Mountsorrel has been updated to allow for this functionality.
The Scenarios added to Southeastern Highspeed are centred around diversions of aggregates through Medway, which can occur during planned engineering on the real-world network.
There are also 9 additional service layers for players that own London Overground Suffragette line between Gospel Oak and Ripple Lane.
