About This Content The E18 Passenger Add-On takes you back to West Germany in the 1970s and places you in the cab on an E18 electric locomotive hauling passenger services. The E 18 is a German electric locomotive built from 1935 to 1939, and again briefly from 1954 to 1955. The design was based on the earlier E17, which had been a major step forward over slower previous electric locomotives. Thanks partly to its basic streamlining, the E18 was an even better performer with a top speed of 150km/h, despite weighing a hefty 108 tons. Following World War 2, the E18 was operated in West Germany and Austria, though much of the electrified lines in East Germany were unusable so some examples remaining in East Germany were sold to West Germany's Deutsche Bundesbahn. A total of 55 examples were built, and incredibly the E18 remained in service until 1984 with 6 remaining in preservation today.The E18 Passenger Add-On includes the E18 locomotive in blue, green and ocean-blue/beige liveries plus Schnellzugwagen in blue/green and ocean-blue/beige and Silberlinge coaches.Key FeaturesE18 electric locomotive in blue, green and ocean-blue/beige liveriesSchnellzugwagen coaches in blue/green and ocean-blue/beigeSilberlinge coachesScenarios6 scenarios for the Ruhr-Sieg and Seeburgbahn Routes:(available separately)Norddeich Mole – Frankfurt / MainHelping HandTrain TakeoverLocal Traffic ServiceRepaintingBR118 between Lenne and Ebbe mountains 7aa9394dea Title: Train Simulator: E18 Loco Add-OnGenre: SimulationDeveloper:virtualRailroadsPublisher:Dovetail Games - TrainsFranchise:Train SimulatorRelease Date: 12 Apr, 2012 Train Simulator: E18 Loco Add-On Download 10 Mb train simulator e18 loco add-on This is a weirdly frustrating pack to rate. On the one hand, the loco is very nice. On the other, the package is kind of a mess.For a start, the description states that it has scenarios for the Ruhr-Sieg and Seeburgbahn. You can no longer buy the Seeburgbahn route, and even though I have the Ruhr-Sieg route no scenarios show up in standard or career for it. So it appears to need both.There are no consists set up for Quick Drive either, the net effect being that you could be forgiven for being confused as to where any sign of this add-on is at all inside train sim.As with the 70s freight route (also missing consists for some of its locos), however, you can create consists in the custom consist editor, use the contents in the scenario editor etc. It's not entirely clear either which rolling stock in your collection comes with the pack because of course things are not well labelled so you should take the next bit with some care but the cameras in the included coaches appear to be broken, with the passenger camera in the beige\/blue coaches doing a weird teleport pan, and no camera view at all in the silver coaches,As others have noted the internal camera is really limited in pan radius as well.So I love the loco, but the package is a bad buy unless it's on sale and you are willing to put in the work to use it. So sadly a no.. i buy yesterday this dlc and there id no scenarios career or quick drive. this is realy shemefull.why you guys said that there is scenarios when in the reality we do not get nothing for 13 eur,i work for my money. what should i do. i have ruhr-sieg and seeberg bahn route alredy in my library. please give a advice. thank you,. Lovely loco in three different liveries with wagons in those liveries included, models of both loco and wagons are gorgeous. Only mind that if you have newer builds of TS like me, you won't get any scenarios for seebergbahn even if you downloaded its reboot from the workshop. Also important note is that the wagons are somehow badly optimized and cause massive frame drop when you direct the camera at them, so be prepared to being forced do only look ahead of your train. And it's a shame, but you can't look around inside the cab, camera is locked so you can only move it as far as the front window stretches.. Unusual looks, interesting driving style and fantastic sound set. Runs beautifully. Highly recommended.. I just picked it up today and I think the E18 locomotive and passenger cars are beautiful,it looks amazing the loco and the cars that come with it.Drives very nice and the breaks are smooth I recommend it,its realy nice and fun to drive and look at.
