Train Simulator: Union Pacific Challenger Loco Add-On Download By Apunkagames - http://bytlly.com/1996h3
About This Content The mighty Union Pacific Challenger 4-6-6-4 is now available for Train Simulator, featuring four exciting and challenging scenarios specially created for the Sherman Hill route.The stiff gradients of the Wasatch Mountains demanded newer, more powerful and efficient locomotives, leading to Union Pacific’s chief engineers to design a 4-6-6-4 steam locomotive that utilised two sets of driving wheels each with their own steam cylinders. The Challenger’s impressive articulated wheel arrangement made it one of the most successful large steam locomotive designs ever developed and was considered to be one of the most technologically advanced of its kind, providing both high horsepower and efficient operations.Their mammoth weight made the Challenger a regular sight on UP’s heavy mountainous freight routes but they were also put into service on the occasional passenger service through mountain territories to California and Oregon. In total, 252 Challengers were built between 1936 and 1943 by the American Locomotive Company and Baldwin Locomotive Works, just less than half for UP.The Union Pacific Challenger V2.0 for Train Simulator is available in two liveries - the famous Union Pacific black livery and Union Pacific lined grey livery. Key features include TSX effects, new smoke and steam particle emitters, and enhanced cab interior.The Sherman Hills Add-On (available separately) is required to play the scenarios included with this Add-On.ScenariosFour scenarios for the Sherman Hill route:Challenger Intro RunChallenger on Sherman Hill Cheyenne to LaramieChallenger Working at WyconChallenger Working the BNSF StubMore scenarios are available on Steam Workshop online and in-game.

The train converys the sense of power and enormity of the real Challenger, and while the inside of the cab is poorly rendered, the view from the cab out of its side windows, as the beast rocks about on its articulated frame, is awesome. The outside looks great, and the rolling stock is OK too. Definately worth it - probably my favorite steam loco.. go \u2665\u2665\u2665\u2665 your life. In side and out the 4-6-6-4 Challenger is amazing. The sounds one the engine sound great. Its a good pulling and a hard pusher. My only flow is that the Bell sounds like a Toy train. I wound have perfired the bell sound from the Big boy.Other then that its a great engine and can't wait to see how far this engine gose. Whatever happened to the consolidation that used to come with this? Got a thumbs down from me cuz the consolidation is gone, horible physics and sounds, and RSC just did a bad job on it.. This is a great DLC. Here we are in TS2016 and this old stalwart of a model is still chugging along in the DLC store. A Railworks 2 model (2012), this is one of the oldest DLC locos available for TS, so don't expect anything grand if you decide to purchase it. Please take the $7.99 price tag seriously for what it is. It's at a reduced price because this mammoth is ancient (pun not intended). As part of the TS Classics range, you shouldn't expect anything technologically signifigant or magnificently designed. It may have been state of the art at the time it was released, but it pales in comparison to what is available now.PROS:-It's the only Challenger model for TS that is available to my knowledge.-Will serve well for scenario creators on old steam routes.-3rd party minor upgrades are available on RWA.-Reduced price tag that comes with the TS Classics range.CONS:-Disgusting stock sounds-Disgusting cab-Disgusting exterior-Disgusting physics-Just Disgusting (for today's standards)Buy it if you need it for scenarios, or if you wish to own a little piece of history, but don't buy it thinking it's good content. Perhaps one day, DTG will look back and give this loco a makeover, but don't expect that anytime soon.. If you love huge Union Pacfic steam engines then i recommend this. It comes with assicatied passenger cars and a baggage car. Along with some frieght cars.. The set is very good. Challanger engines in all variations (Except the Clinchfield, and DRGW). 9.5\/10. If you love American steam, the Challenger is an excellent addon to have in your inventory. Although its an older model, the price is not bad, but wait for a sale, sometimes they'll sell it for a few cents.. Not a particularly in depth simulation, but it's the Challenger. A fun little sim when you want something a bit simpler than the FEF-3.
