About This Content The Class 390 is a modern classic, and you can experience the speed of this powerful tilting express train from the driver’s seat in Train Simulator. The Class 390 is one of the fastest electric multiple units operating in Britain. The set can reach 140 mph, whilst featuring tilting train technology to allow higher speeds around bends. At present, the Class 390 operates along the West Coast Main Line and is well-known to commuters and railfans alike for its sleek looks and high performance. In 2006 a Class 390 set a new speed record along the West Coast Main Line, completing the 401-mile trip from London to Glasgow in 3 hours and 55 minutes, and in usual operation the sets will run up to 125mph where track conditions allow. The Class 390 for Train Simulator recreates the smooth high performance well-known to drivers on the West Coast Main Line, and features a realistic tilting function which mimics the action of the real thing.Includes:Class 390 tilting electric multiple unit in Crimson Lake, Navy & Orange and Intercity Swallow liveriesA complete train is made up of the following vehicles:Driving Motor Second Open Motor Second Open Pantograph Trailer Second Restaurant / Mini Buffet Motor Second Open Trailer Second Open Motor First Open Pantograph Trailer First Open Motor First Open Disabled Driving Motor Restaurant First Open 7aa9394dea Title: Train Simulator: Class 390 EMU Add-OnGenre: SimulationDeveloper:Dovetail GamesPublisher:Dovetail Games - TrainsFranchise:Train SimulatorRelease Date: 1 Aug, 2012 Train Simulator: Class 390 EMU Add-On Download For Pc Where do we begin? The cab detail is pretty good and poor visibility one gets from the driving seat of a real Pendolino is well illustrated. So what's wrong with it? For starters, the Virgin Trains livery (which appears in the 390 folder on the C Drive by default) is missing from inside Train Simulator. I have tried custom installing the livery from a third party but it was not playing ball. The Pendoino is designed to tilt; which in real life helps round corners but in the game, can cost you a thousand points in just 20 miles of driving on the WCML North route. Finally, I am a self confessed sound freak and like to look at sound packs from Armstrong Powerhouse. It's a shame they don't as of yet have a sound pack because the ones that came with this are aweful.. WHERE'S THE VIRGIN LIVERY...?! >:C. The scenarios for this loco have a major flaw. The speed limits seem to be to high because the game gives a lot of "driving quality" penalties when going through curves. That makes most scenarios nearly impossible to finish with gold. Also the 390 itself is pretty basic. It doesn't have any unique features but it also lacks some basic functions, e.g. in-cab lighting and the headlights don't really cast any light onto the terrain. This DLC needs fixing but I wouldn't expect DTG to care since it's been around broken since 2012.. This is a fabulous addon and i'd say is *just about* worth \u00a36.First off, the modeling and the animations are rather good. The thing that amazed me is that the pantograph is animated and moves on some sort of hydraulic sled when the train is going round a corner so it moves to keep contact with the over head wires. The steps that fold out when the doors are open are also there. The tilting is a little strange since it's not controled with track-side sensors, but is just when it's at a corner so it can jolt you to one side before it starts to tilt.But the train does have some flaws. The horn is strangely loud, i can be at the back of the train and it sounds like i'm infront of it.The cab is a little sparse when it comes to buttons you can press. You can't choose which specific lighting arrangement you want, you can't choose which wiper speed you want, but you can turn the tilt off.Overall, this is a nice little thing to have, good for speed on rather curvy routes (Going 155 in a 50 zone maxes out the tilt). The modeling and lighting is quite nice and it is really good when it comes to FPS, but the passenger view is a little laggy for my liking. It comes with three liveries with some that you can get elsewhere.9.5\/10 and 155mph just about anywhere you want!. WHERE'S THE VIRGIN LIVERY...?! >:C. This is by far my favourite train on the game. Lovely to drive up and down the two northern sections of the WCML. Don't buy this however if you're only wanting to use it for career scenarios as the game doesn't account for the tilting mechanism and you lose all your points for drive quality. Despite that issue this is an absolute must have for your collection, its a good deal at full price but even better if picked up in a sale.. Terrible Unrealistic and where is the Virgin Livery No Headlight controls only Day and tailnot enough featuresI bought this purely for the experience of driving a tilting train, looking forward particularly to the sweeping curves of the Northern Fells and Scottish borders on the WCML. Imagine my disappointment then, after driving several slow speed scenarios around the outskirts of Glasgow, when I find myself on a long Northbound run to Glasgow and that you cannot exploit the tilting system to allow high speed travel around bends!! The drive quality parameters for this model are absolutely ridiculous, you are penalised many hundreds of points whilst negotiating bends at speeds well below the allowed maximum. You can travel faster in a standard non-tilting train and receive no penalty.The most annoying thing about all this is that people have been complaining since 2012 and yet nothing has been done about it. I'm sure all it needs is a small coding alteration to re-set the drive quality parameters. Presumably this will not happen now? I feel like I have been robbed!. Good Train Buy Today Nice And Cheap And Is Great For HS Services. terrible dlc because1. Needs Virgin Trains Livery2. Needs 11-Car Sets3. Cab Light doesn't work
