The Train Simulator Classic Train Simulator: New Haven E-33 Loco Add-On adds the New Haven Railroad’s EF-4 electric locomotive, accompanying freight cars and four career scenarios for the NEC: New York – New Haven route. The EF-4s were second-hand General Electric locomotives built in the 1950s for the Virginian Railway and bought by the New Haven in 1963 to haul freight between New York City and New Haven, Connecticut.

The New Haven EF-4

The six-axle, C-C locomotives were numbered 300–310 and painted in New Haven vermillion, white and black. Each produced 3,300 horsepower and 98,500 pounds of tractive effort, weighed 394,000 pounds and had a geared top speed of 65 mph. They handled nearly all mainline freight across the New Haven’s electrified territory, including runs between Cedar Hill Yard in New Haven, Oak Point Yard in the Bronx and Brooklyn’s Bay Ridge Yard. After the New Haven merged into Penn Central, the locomotives served Penn Central and then Conrail before retirement in 1981.

The add-on includes running and cold-and-dark versions of the EF-4. The cold-and-dark locomotive has a multi-step start-up process, including a manual air pump for raising the pantograph. Its simulated electrical and air systems have interactive controls, realistic braking and authentic failures when Main Reservoir air pressure is too low. The locomotive also has an accurate in-cab signalling system, multiple cab views and detailed operating manuals.
