## Description
### Steam Store Description
The Class 444 is a superb modern image EMU for the Portsmouth Direct Line, and
comes complete with Portsmouth Direct Line scenarios and plenty to keep you
busy in the cab.
The Class 444 ‘Desiro’ electrical multiple units (EMUs) were built by Siemens
AG in 2003 and 2004. Forty-five of these flagship sets were built to handle
express services for South West Trains, as part of the process of replacing
ageing ‘slam-door’ rolling stock so familiar to commuters in the south of
England. After the teething problems encountered when introducing other new
trains types in the UK, the 444s were subject to extensive testing at the
Wildenrath test track prior to entering service. These 5-car units can run at
100mph on 750 volts DC, and with many realistic in-cab features, the Class 444
is a great addition to your Portsmouth Direct Line.
