## About This Content
The classic Class 105 diesel multiple unit comes to Train Simulator, perfect
for the stunning Weardale & Teesdale Network route.
Built by Cravens of Sheffield between 1956 and 1959, the Class 105 operated
throughout the UK on branch lines and rural services in East Anglia, North
West and North East England, and also parts of southern Scotland. The Class
105 could also found on suburban routes out of London King’s Cross before
electrification.
Once the stable of North East railways, operating alongside their superior
cousins, the Class 101, most of the units that operated in that area were
based at the DMU Maintenance Depot at Bank Top, Darlington. However, some
units were based at Heaton Depot, Newcastle and operated local services to
Sunderland, Hartlepool and Durham.
Some Cravens Class 105s were designated as Class 106s, due to them being
fitted with different engines; however they were all later re-classified to
Class 105. They were also based on the BR Mk1 coach body, underframe and
bogies, Cravens having built a number of these coaches for British Rail
previously.
Nineteen of the Class ran as three car units, but all of the centre cars had
been withdrawn and re-used in Class 101 trains by 1970. None of the units were
selected for refurbishment as they were candidates for early withdrawal,
however they operated in passenger service until 1988 in their BR Corporate
Blue livery.
The Class has also fared badly in preservation, with only three vehicles
preserved today; a number of cars were also purchased and sectioned for use as
store rooms on North Sea gas platforms, although it is not known whether any
of these sections survived.
The Class 105 for Train Simulator is available in British Railways Green
livery and features a working gear lever, wipers, engine start/stop, AWS,
headlamps and tail markers, and changeable numberboards.
The locomotive is also Quick Drive compatible, giving you the freedom to drive
the BR Class 105 on any Quick Drive enabled route for Train Simulator, such as
those available through Steam. Also included are scenarios specifically for
the Weardale & Teesdale Network route (available separately and required to
play these scenarios).
