British Steam
Spirit of Steam immerses you in the middle of the British Railways steam era. Take control of the famous LMS Jubilee Class locomotive, resplendent in nostalgic BR Brunswick Green livery, adorned with BR’s late crest. Carry passengers on a journey of a lifetime along the West Coast Main Line, over the Runcorn Railway Bridge and right into the heart of Merseyside with this express 4-6-0. Additionally, be in charge the hard-working LMS Stanier 8F Class locomotive, its rugged BR Late Black guise and 2-8-0 wheel configuration better suited to hauling lower speed, heavy freight trains.
Step Back in Time
Step back into 1950s Britain and discover the soot and sounds of the romantic steam era. Working hard on busy passenger and freight services through historic Merseyside and Cheshire you can look forward to an entirely new simulation experience.
To achieve an authentic 1950s recreation of the 36-mile (58 km) route from Liverpool Lime Street to Crewe, we used countless references including the National Library of Scotland’s Historic OS map collection, railway photographic archives, old postcards, and much more. As well as historic locomotives, wagons and buildings, Spirit of Steam also features a recreation of the complex signalling system and historically accurate LNWR signal boxes that were built along the line.
Authentic Audio
Spirit of Steam features authentic and detailed audio from the real locomotives. Our team visited Great Central Railway where they were able to get hands-on to capture audio that could be replicated in-game to bring the feeling of driving a steam locomotive to life.
Spirit of Steam brings is available now for Train Sim World 2, discover a new simulation experience on the Xbox Store.
