About the Union Pacific Heavy Challenger

The Union Pacific Heavy Challenger was a titan of the rails, a symbol of American ingenuity during the steam era. Built by Alco between 1936 and 1945, these locomotives were designed to haul heavy freight and passenger trains across Union Pacific's vast transcontinental network. This add-on focuses on the forty-five UP 4-6-6-4s from the World War II years of 1943 and 1944.

This meticulously recreated locomotive features stunning visual fidelity, authentic controls, and realistic physics. The Challenger's cab boasts nearly 90 functional controls, gauges, and animations, creating a truly immersive and challenging engineer simulation. Whether you're a seasoned veteran or a newcomer to train simulation games, you can tailor the experience to your skill level with complex or simplified controls, an auto-fireman, and even an auto-engineer option!

Notably, the package also includes the Rio Grande version, showcasing the six virtually identical 4-6-6-4s assigned to the Denver Rio Grande & Western (D&RGW) during WWII.
