## About This Content
The ‘Peak’ of British Railway’s diesel fleet comes to Train Simulator in
original BR blue livery.
Built by BR’s Derby and Crewe Works between 1960 and 1962, the Sulzer Type 4
diesel locomotive were the main passenger locomotives on the Midland Main Line
from their introduction until their withdrawal in the early 1980s.
When initially put into service, the ‘Peaks’ – their nickname inherited from
their Class 44 predecessors – were fitted with multi-unit working and steam
heating boilers for passenger services. However, in the early 1970s, 50 of the
183 built were fitted with the more modern electric train supply in place of
steam heating boilers, and renumbered as Class 45/1.
With a top speed of 90mph (145 km/h), the ‘Peaks’ also worked the North
Trains-Pennine route from Manchester to Liverpool, becoming a common and
popular sight until HSTs and more modern units took over in the 1980s.
The BR Class 45 ‘Peak’ for Train Simulator is a former Iron Horse House model,
which has been updated to TS2015 standard, including new scenarios and
improved exterior modelling. Available in BR Blue livery, also included are BR
Mk2a blue/grey passenger coaches.
The locomotive is also Quick Drive compatible, giving you the freedom to drive
the BR Class 45 ‘Peak’ on any Quick Drive enabled route for Train Simulator,
such as those available through Steam. Also included are scenarios
specifically for the Liverpool-Manchester route (available separately and
required to play these scenarios).
## Scenarios
