The Train Simulator Classic Train Simulator: Chessie System Retro Pack is an add-on for Train Simulator. It recreates the Chessie System era of the 1970s and early 1980s, when the railroad integrated the operations of the Chesapeake & Ohio, Baltimore & Ohio and Western Maryland Railway. Its locomotives feature the Chessie livery, with the silhouette of C&O’s “Chessie the Kitten” in yellow, vermillion and blue.

Locomotives and rolling stock

The pack includes three types of Electro-Motive diesel locomotives: GP9 and GP35 road-switchers, plus SW-series switchers in SW7, SW9 and SW1200 variations. All locomotive types come in Chessie System livery, with B&O, C&O and WM sub-lettering where appropriate. The GP9 also has a patched C&O/WM blue livery.

It also includes an ex-Western Maryland C-13A cupola caboose in six liveries: Chessie System, Western Maryland and four Chessie safety schemes. Eight types of freight equipment appear in a range of Chessie System, Western Maryland, Baltimore & Ohio, Chesapeake & Ohio and generic liveries.

Career scenarios

Nine career scenarios recreate operations and train symbols on the CSX Hanover Subdivision route, which became part of the Chessie System along with the rest of the Western Maryland in 1973. They cover mainline, local and switching work:
