The Train Simulator Classic Train Simulator: Network SouthEast Class 121 DMU Add-On adds the Class 121 “Bubble Car” in Network SouthEast livery, recreating its operation between London and the western Home Counties in the 1980s. These unusual single-car diesel multiple units were manufactured by the Pressed Steel Company from 1960 onwards and introduced by British Rail mainly for Western Region services and suburban and branch-line duties around London.

The Class 121

The model features the prominent exhaust pipes at the motor end, designed to fit around a large four-digit headcode indicator box, along with a manual gear change, passenger view and slightly weathered finish. The units became familiar on Network SouthEast services. After British Rail was privatised, Silverlink operated the fleet for passenger services, while several more units worked in departmental duties with Railtrack.

Two Class 121s remain in revenue-generating service with Chiltern Railways, and five motor cars are preserved on heritage railways in the UK. The two in service represent the last chance to ride 1960s slam-door stock on the UK main line.

Scenarios and driving

The add-on is Quick Drive compatible, so you can drive the Class 121 on any Quick Drive-enabled Train Simulator route. It also includes three scenarios for the Great Western Main Line route, which is required to play them:
