Tehachapi Pass Scenario Pack 02, [url=https://store.steampowered.com/app/2009529/TS_Marketplace_Tehachapi_Pass_Scenario_Pack_02/]now available on the Steam Store [/url]from accomplished developer High Iron Simulations, brings dynamic and contemporary heavy-tonnage BNSF and Union Pacific railroading to the popular Train Simulator Classic Tehachapi Pass route with ten new and highly authentic career scenarios. Spun over and through the daunting Tehachapi Mountains of California, the Tehachapi Pass route was constructed by the Southern Pacific, opened in 1876, and connects the arid Mojave Desert with California’s fertile San Joaquin Valley. In 1899, via a trackage rights arrangement, the Santa Fe Railway (AT&SF) also began operations on the Tehachapi Pass line. In the 1990s, Southern Pacific merged into Union Pacific and Santa Fe merged with Burlington Northern to form BNSF and today the route is Union Pacific’s bustling Mojave Subdivision and is a bustling tonnage and intermodal artery for rail giants Union Pacific and BNSF. With the new Tehachapi Pass Scenario Pack 02, you’ll experience realistic and challenging intermodal, manifest freight, unit-train, local, and switching operations, and you’ll work aboard five types of modern General Electric and Electro-Motive diesel locomotives to battle heavy tonnage and the steep and unforgiving Tehachapi Mountain grades. Tehachapi Pass Scenario Pack 02 features taking the controls of some of the highest priority and longest and heaviest trains in America. With this realistic scenario pack, you will: [list] [*] Handle a priority run of BNSF’s hot transcontinental double-stack intermodal train Z-WSPSTO calling upon the potency of high-horsepower General Electric locomotives. [*] Operate Union Pacific manifest freight M-WCRV employing head-end and DPU (distributed power unit) motive power and use all your skill as an engineer to descend the 2.2 percent grades of Tehachapi’s north slope. [*] Make an authentic end-to-end run of the historic and daunting Tehachapi Pass route from Bakersfield to Mojave at the throttle of heavy BNSF manifest H-STOBAR. [*] With a duo of Union Pacific GE ES44ACs, work a local turn as it makes setouts and pickups at Tehachapi Summit, then returns to Mojave Yard. [*] With Union Pacific General Electric AC4400CWs, lift a heavy ballast train from Bakersfield to the summit of the Tehachapi Pass route. [*] Handle challenging local, interchange, and switching duties at Bakersfield and Edison aboard BNSF GP38-2 and Union Pacific GP40-2 diesel road-switchers. [*] Climb into the cab and engineer’s seat of contemporary diesel power, including General Electric ES44DC, ES44AC, and AC4400CW diesels, plus veteran Electro-Motive GP38-2 and GP40-2 locomotives. [*] Amid the constant bustle of this legendary rail route alive with Union Pacific and BNSF operations, witness run-through diesel power of other North American railroads. [*] Operate trains through all of the Tehachapi route’s renowned mountain locations, including Caliente, Bealville, Cliff, and the extraordinary Tehachapi Loop at Walong.
