Train Simulator Classic Train Simulator: InterCity Class 91 Loco Add-On adds the Class 91 locomotive in its original InterCity Swallow livery, along with nine Mk4 passenger coaches and a Mk4 Driving Van Trailer (DVT). The Class 91, also known as the InterCity 225, was designed to operate at 225 km/h (140 mph) and works high-speed passenger services on the East Coast Main Line between London King’s Cross and Edinburgh Waverley. Services normally run at up to 125 mph (201 km/h) because of the track infrastructure, though they can occasionally reach the designed top speed to make up time.

The Class 91

Developed from research and operational experience gained during the Advanced Passenger Train (APT) project, the Class 91 entered service in 1988 with the electrification of the East Coast Main Line. Its first passenger service ran on 3 March 1989, with Mk3 coaches and a converted Class 43 power car acting as the DVT. The locomotive has an all-steel body shell and body-mounted motors, a design intended to reduce unsprung mass and track wear at high speeds.

Cabs and controls

The Class 91 has two working driving cabs, including the “sharp end” and “blunt end” cabs. Its cab systems include DRA, AWS, vigilance device reset and cruise control. The Mk4 DVT also has a driveable cab, allowing the train to operate in push-pull formation. The coaches include passenger view.

Scenarios and routes

The add-on is Quick Drive compatible, so you can drive the Class 91 on any Quick Drive-enabled Train Simulator route. It also includes three scenarios for the East Coast Main Line: London-Peterborough route, which is required to play them:
