Train Sim World 6: Cargo Line Vol. 2 - Aggregates

Train Sim World 6: Cargo Line Vol. 2 – Aggregates is a downloadable content (DLC) expansion developed by Skyhook Games and published by Dovetail Games. Released on August 26, 2025, this DLC introduces players to the world of aggregate freight transport within the UK rail network. The expansion features the HOA Bogie Hopper Wagon, a distinctive freight wagon used for transporting bulk materials like sand, gravel, and ballast. Players can operate these freight services using the BR Class 66 diesel-electric locomotive, which has been a staple in previous Cargo Line volumes.

The DLC offers a variety of gameplay options across four major UK rail routes: the Midland Main Line, Great Western Express, Southeastern Highspeed, and East Coastway. Players can engage in multiple services and scenarios, all featuring the new HOA Bogie Hopper Wagons. These services replace the standard aggregate freight services on these routes, providing a fresh perspective on UK freight operations. The expansion also supports Train Sim World’s Scenario Planner and Livery Designer tools, allowing players to create custom scenarios and liveries, enhancing replayability and personalization.

Promotion for the DLC was carried out through various channels, including announcements on Dovetail Games' official forums and social media platforms. The community was engaged through preview streams and discussions, generating anticipation among train simulation enthusiasts. The DLC was made available on multiple platforms, including Steam, PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X|S, and Xbox One, broadening its accessibility to a wider audience. The inclusion of Skyhook Games' work in the Train Sim World series was highlighted as a significant addition, appealing to players interested in detailed and realistic UK rail operations.

Upon release, the DLC received positive feedback from the Train Sim World community. Players praised the detailed modeling of the HOA Bogie Hopper Wagon and the realistic aggregate freight operations. The inclusion of multiple service patterns and the integration of the new wagons into existing routes added variety and depth to the gameplay. The DLC's reception has been favorable, with many considering it a valuable addition to the Train Sim World 6 experience, offering a unique perspective on modern UK freight operations and enhancing the overall simulation.
