Experience Rail Innovation with the HST Buffer Loco Add-On for Train Simulator!

Relive a unique chapter in British railway history with the HST Buffer Loco Add-On for Train Simulator! During 1987, a select group of High Speed Train (HST) power cars underwent a fascinating conversion. Eight of these iconic vehicles were fitted with buffers and cutting-edge Time Division Multiplex (TDM) equipment, transforming them into 'Driving Vehicles' for pioneering trials alongside the Class 91 locomotives on the East Coast Main Line. This add-on lets you step into the driver's seat and experience this innovative era of high-speed rail.

These modified HST power cars were crucial in allowing direct control of the Class 91 locomotives, paving the way for smoother, more efficient operations. Witness them in action on the East Coast Main Line, working alongside Class 89 and later Class 91 locomotives on routes from London to Leeds. Please note: the East Coast Main Line route add-on (available separately) is required to play the included scenarios.
