102t Class A bogie tank wagons Released

Fastline Simulation are pleased to announce that their first RailWorks add-on in the form of a stock pack featuring 102t Class A bogie tankers to a design developed by Metropolitan Cammell in the 1960’s was released on 9th March 2011.

The impressive 102t Class A bogie tanks are the first release in our Project East Coast range of add-ons for RailWorks and were some of the first big wagons seen on the UK rail network.

Priced at just £3 the pack contains a total of sixteen versions of the Class A tank wagons, including:

  • TEA and TEB variants;

  • both clean and dirty;

  • Empty and loaded versions;

  • Rear versions featuring a Bardic battery with emulated sensor to only light at night.

In addition there are two authentic scenarios for the default Newcastle to York route based on the 1980 working timetables: 6E79 1950 Grangemouth - Ecclesfield and 6S69 0841 Masborough - Grangemouth.

To complete the pack a manual in the style of a period BR official booklet is included giving more details about the models, their use in scenarios and other important information.

Notes:

Fastline Simulation Ltd: Formed in 2007 as an independent publisher of MSTS content. The company took the decision to start creating and marketing their own range of stock packs and routes for RailWorks with Project East Coast forming the central principal for the stock pack development.

Project East Coast: The Newcastle to York route provided with RailWorks is the perfect canvas to portray the railways of Britain in the Diesel and Electric era as they strived to change from the traditional methods of the days of steam into a modern (and profitable) enterprise. The plan is quite simple, to provide as much of the rolling stock possible to bring to life this thriving corridor in a period loosely based from 1974 to the mid 1980s and the coming of the overhead wires.
