Train Simulator: Amtrak P30CH Loco Add-On Crack Unlock Code

Updated: Mar 18, 2020





















































About This Content The General Electric P30CH, affectionately nicknamed the “Pooch,” was among the first all-new diesel-electric locomotives built for Amtrak, and is now available for Train Simulator.Nicknamed after the similarities in its P30CH designation, the “Pooch” locomotives were designed around General Electric’s 3,000-horsepower U30C, but with a streamlined “cowl” more attractive for passenger service. The P30CH was also the first Amtrak diesel locomotive built from the factory that offered Head End Power (HEP), supplied by auxiliary powerplants and alternators.As the first Amtrak diesels equipped with HEP, the Pooches first went to work hauling short-distance Amfleet-equipped trains, then were also employed on select long-distance trains such as the Chicago-New Orleans Panama Limited and the Washington, D.C.-Savannah (Georgia) segment of the Palmetto. With Amtrak’s decision to standardize on the Electro-Motive F40PH, the P30CH was destined to become an orphan in a world of F40PHs, a fact exemplified by Amtrak’s willingness to lease the Pooches to the Southern Pacific in 1978 for Bay Area commuter service. But the big P30CHs found a pair of regular homes that extended their operational lives into the early 1990s. One of those regular assignments was Amtrak’s Los Angeles-New Orleans Sunset Limited, which called upon pairs of the Pooches to make the nearly 2,000-mile run across the American southwest. And the other was Amtrak’s Auto-Train operation between Lorton, Virginia and Sanford, Florida. The P30CHs were finally retired in 1992.The GE P30CH for Train Simulator recreates the locomotive in Amtrak’s “Phase III” livery and features of the model include dynamic braking, rear and forward headlight control, gyralight, and classification lights.Also included are a Phase III-liveried Amfleet II coach, Amfleet Café/Lounge, a Heritage Baggage car, Heritage Diner, and Heritage Dome-Coach.The locomotive is also Quick Drive compatible, giving you the freedom to drive the Amtrak P30CH on any Quick Drive enabled route for Train Simulator, such as those available through Steam. Also included are scenarios specifically for the Miami – West Palm Beach route (available separately and required to play these scenarios).ScenariosThree scenarios for the Miami – West Palm Beach route:Northern Meteor – Part 1Northern Meteor – Part 2Take Me Out to the Ball GameMore scenarios are available on Steam Workshop online and in-game.

Rolling stock is good, with some interesting views in the dome cars.Loco sounds are well above the normal standard for DTG; plenty and depth and richness to the motor sounds with dynamic brakes sounding believable and a good selection of other run and system sounds. The horn sounds a bit generic, but as no one will ever again hear a P30CH for real, who\u2019s to say they\u2019re wrong. Rolling stock sounds are ok.Lights are great. The cab light illuminates the interior realistically and there are three intensities of head and tail lights, so you can run during the day without appearing to have a portable sun strapped to the front of the loco. Strobes work, though they\u2019re slaved to the bell and there\u2019s also an independent gyralight.Scenarios are entertaining, though I would prefer more. Two are night runs which bring out the atmosphere of the route.Cons:Physics are questionable. Acceleration and braking seem credible, but sustained speeds seem odd. Being able to hold 60 mph on the level in notch 1 and barely making 79 mph in notch 8 are questionable, but perhaps that\u2019s the way they were.The speedometer needle isn\u2019t lit by the gauge lamps, so at night the only way you can see is by leaving the cab light on or driving with the HUD.I enjoy driving this loco, it\u2019s got plenty of immersion factor and looks great in the Phase III livery.. Like:Textures are goodNew cabLots of detalsOpening windows Dislike:Recycled soundsRetextured rolling stock Same passenger veiw as amfleetRoling stock textures are bad. has coupling issues and trucks are lifted into the body or frame of the locomotive. this proves third party content is better then DTG.. I like this loco and the cars are great as well! My only complaint is the sound, but only in certain camera views. Let me try to explain. In the cab, the sounds are great! In helicopter view 1, however, I can't hear the prime mover at all when my camera is up close and facing the front of the loco or when I'm in a broadside view of the loco. I CAN hear the bell, horn and track sounds just fine, though. Now, if I move the camera to the rear of the loco, the primer mover sound really booms in nicely, but pan to the middle (broadside) or front and the sound vanishes completely! I generally don't have issues like this with my other locos, so I'm thinking the problem is with this loco? Hopefully, someone will look into this and correct. Someday I hope to learn how to adjust these things myself, but it would be nice to not have do it (it should be released with these problems already ironed out). One other sound complaint is I think the bell is much too loud in the cab, but it's fine outside. Otherwise, the texturing is very good and so is the physics. The cabview is nice and overall, the loco is really a joy to run! In spite of the minor sound issues, it's definitely worth a $20 bill and the new Amfleet coaches and dome car is icing on the cake! I predict this DLC will be used a lot by scenario makers, and in fact, two or three have already jumped on the wagon!. Great Loco, sounds are quiet good too so i will recommend :)
