Buy Trainz Plus DLC - Victorian Railways Type 2 DD Class Pack PC key

The Trainz Plus DLC - Victorian Railways Type 2 DD Class Pack adds Victorian Railways DD class steam locomotives to Trainz. Designed as mixed-traffic locomotives, they could also haul mainline passenger services. The class was built between 1903 and 1920, eventually reaching 260 locomotives, constructed by Victorian Railways and outside builders including Phoenix Foundry in Ballarat and Baldwin Locomotive Works in the USA.

Locomotive variants

The pack includes five T2 liveries, each available in broad gauge and standard gauge, for 10 locomotives in total:

• Two-tone green: VR DD T2 Grn.
• Canadian red: VR DD T2 Can Red.
• World War 1 red: VR DD T2 WW1.
• Black, single compressor: VR DD T2 Black.
• Black, twin compressors: VR DD T2 Black2.

Each livery has its own weathering and detail differences where needed. The locomotives include full LOD on their main meshes and bogies, snow meshes using Trainz’s snow altitude function, and automatic locomotive and tender numbering.

Locomotive systems

Scripted effects include exhaust smoke that responds to the regulator and cut-off, an animated air compressor with sound and smoke, and steam and sound effects for the injectors and blower. Cylinder drain effects respond to steam chest pressure in TANE. The tender’s coal load deforms as coal is used.

Animated details include screwlink couplers, brake hoses and taps, safety chains using ACS, marker lamps and tail discs with glow lamps, cab windows, the cab roof vent, weather tarp, smokebox door and tender tank filler lid. The marker lamps and tail discs work with the VR Set Train Lamps driver command. The pack also has a custom interior with operational controls.

TANE features

In TANE, controls in the cab view operate the windows and roof vent in the exterior view, and the weather tarp matches between cab and exterior views. The TANE version also includes normals map/tbumpenv number plates, cab-view weathering, an improved main smoke script and revised colours on the red locomotives. Its Free Roam session includes passenger and goods rolling stock, and it uses the TANE auto-numbering system.
