Train Sim World 6: HKA Bogie Hopper Wagon Pack is a downloadable content (DLC) expansion developed and published by Dovetail Games. Released on August 26, 2025, this DLC introduces the HKA Bogie Hopper Wagon to the game, enhancing the freight operations on UK routes. These wagons, originally built as JMA wagons in 1995 and later reclassified to HKA in 2009 for aggregate haulage, are now featured in the game, adding depth to the freight services. The pack includes the HKA wagons in both weathered National Power and DB Cargo UK liveries, providing players with a variety of visual options.

The HKA Bogie Hopper Wagon Pack offers players the opportunity to operate these wagons on the West Coast Main Line: London Euston - Milton Keynes route.
