Glasgow Dunblane - Coming Soon

The feature-filled Glasgow to Dunblane and Alloa will be arriving 14 September for Train Simulator Classic from Thomson Interactive. You can pre-order this route now on the Steam Store with –10% off.

Originally opened in 1848 the Glasgow to Dunblane line is a key transportation route for Scotland, serving commuters and travellers for over a century. Start out your journey at the urban hub of Glasgow Queen Street, travelling through suburban neighbourhoods, picturesque countryside and rolling hills whilst passing 70+ unique bridges and many famous landmarks like the National Wallace Monument, Stirling Castle and the Falkirk Wheel. At Stirling the line splits to both Dunblane and Alloa where your journey ends.

On this route you will take charge of modern Class 385 Electric Multiple Units in iconic ScotRail livery. First used in 2018 on the route these 100 mph EMUs were built by Hitachi for ScotRail, with a total of 70 units ordered consisting of three and four car sets. Authentically recreated for the Glasgow Dunblane route, this EMU includes numerous detailed features, like fully operational TPWS and TMS systems, that make for a rewarding and memorable driving experience.

The Class 385 and the stations on the route also include a new custom-built dynamic Passenger Information System (PIS). Once your destination is set, displays in the passenger cabins and on-board announcements will update based on your current location. On station platforms the PIS will display destination, calling stops and announcements will update passengers. These also include late running visuals and announcements if you’re not keeping to time!

Head over to the Steam Store page to find out more, see more screenshots and pre-order the route. We’ll be back next week with a Thomson Interactive developer interview.
