## About This Content
The superbly detailed EWS Class 66 V2.0 is now available for Train Simulator.
When British Rail’s freight operations were privatised in 1996, EWS brought
most of BR’s freight operations, including many locomotives that were
unreliable or at the end of their useful life. EWS approached General Motors
to seek replacements for the ageing fleet, which saw the Class 66 enter
service in 1998. The model was a replacement for the Class 59, from which it
used the same body shell but was updated with new internal fittings, control
systems, 3,000hp engines and power units. More than 440 models were built, and
seeing their success as part of the EWS fleet, many heavy freight companies
ordered their own models, including Freightliner, Direct Rail Services and
EWS.
The EWS Class 66 V2.0 for Train Simulator is a re-worked model of a previous
version, with an updated and improved interior and re-modelled exterior.
Available in EWS livery, the model features accurate brake control and centre-
sprung brake lever, accurate engine and horn sounds, JGA aggregate hopper
wagons and OTA timber wagons.
The model also comes as Quick Drive compatible, giving you the freedom to
drive it on any Quick Drive enabled route for Train Simulator, such as those
available through Steam. Also included are scenarios specifically for the West
Coast Main Line North route (available separately and required to play these
scenarios).
## Scenarios
Three scenarios for the West Coast Main Line North route:

More scenarios are available on Steam Workshop online and in-game. Train
