Head back to 1984 or bring history to the 21st Century with TSG's BR 194 / E94 Railtour Pack, out now!Please note that this add-on will be released on Gen 9 (Xbox Series S|X & PS5) and PC platforms only.Rolling StockDRG BR 194 locomotive & E94 088
The pack brings two more variants of this iconic style of locomotive to German route Add-ons, following the inclusion of the ÖBB 1020 in the Mittenwaldbahn route Add-on.
Differences can be seen both inside and out, with the DRG variant seen in a plain dark green livery, rather than the ÖBB red. The roof and windows, but also components like cooling pipes, vents, and lights, also have visual differences.
In the cab, the technology is visibly dated with less electrical components and switches, a shorter instrument display and even an older style of telephone!
A summary list of changes includes:
Air System Modifications
Train Brake Valves
Indusi i54
Different Pantographs
Different Lamp Systems
Various cosmetic changes
Changes to the Overload system
Weaker Electric Brake
Originally built in 1943, E94 088 received major modifications in 1970 to become an ÖBB 1020 and continued service until 1994. After an extensive restoration, it was brought back to operational condition in 2013 and is now proudly maintained by EZW. Today, it still runs on both rail tours and regular services whenever an additional locomotive is needed.
Developing the Add-on was done with invaluable support of the Elektrische Zugförderung Württemberg, who will also receive a portion of the proceeds from this pack.
Coaches & Wagons
Including in the pack are ageing pre-war passenger coaches: “Umbauwagen” plus Gbs, Es50 and Falns freight wagons.
Timetable services and additional gameplay
New 1984 Linke Rheinstrecke Timetable
Players with the Linke Rheinstrecke route Add-on will be able to make use of a new 1984 timetable that is unlocked with the BR 194 loco Add-on.
This timetable is best experienced with a full complement of period locomotives and stock which are layered in from other Train Sim World Add-ons.
These are:
The 1984 timetable will have a small number of additional playable services over the original timetable, set in 1997. However, there will be a significant increase in AI traffic with hundreds of additional AI services visible at both ends of the route.
Unique special services will be included, as well as local freight and repositioning movements. Long distance traffic will feature courtesy of content from the Mittenwaldbahn route Add-on. This increase in services means that some trains will have to wait for others!
There have also been a number of general improvements made to the Linke Rheinstrecke route, mainly focussed on scenery and water textures.
The DB BR 218 received a new livery in a recent patch that can be used in this timetable or via Free Roam. We’ll share more news on this in the relevant Patch Notes.
