Master the Art of Shunting with the EWS & Freightliner Class 08 Loco Add-On

Experience the essential workhorse of the British railway network in Train Simulator. The iconic Class 08 diesel shunter, affectionately known to enthusiasts as the "Gronk," is now available in this detailed locomotive add-on, featuring authentic EWS and Freightliner liveries. With nearly 1,000 units produced between 1952 and 1962, this legendary locomotive defined post-war shunting, and now you have the chance to take the controls of this historic engine.

Based on the LMS 12033 series and powered by a robust English Electric six-cylinder engine, the Class 08 is perfectly engineered for yard operations. While the prototype was limited to a top speed of 15mph, its immense pulling power made it an irreplaceable asset for moving heavy freight across yards and stations. Even in the modern era of rail privatization, these resilient machines continue to serve major operators like EWS (DB Schenker) and Freightliner.
