The Arriva Trains Wales Class 150/2 DMU DLC for Train Simulator Classic was developed by Armstrong Powerhouse and released in 2017. It features the British Rail Class 150/2 diesel multiple unit, introduced in the late 1980s as part of the Sprinter family. These units were widely used on regional services across Wales, and the DLC recreates them in the distinctive Arriva Trains Wales livery, providing players with an authentic regional rail experience.
The add-on includes a highly detailed model of the Class 150/2, complete with accurate cab controls, gauges, and animations. Players can operate the unit across compatible UK routes, managing acceleration, braking, and other operational features such as wheelslip protection and GSM-R communications. The physics and performance closely reflect the real-world behaviour of the DMU, ensuring an immersive driving experience.
The DLC comes with three career scenarios for the South Wales Coastal: Bristol to Swansea route: the 11:10 Swansea to Cardiff Central service, the 21:15 Maesteg to Cardiff Central service, and the 16:07 Taunton to Cardiff Central service. These scenarios task players with maintaining timetables, handling regional passenger services, and navigating the line’s operational challenges. The scenarios highlight the versatility of the Class 150/2 in both commuter and regional operations.
Reception of the DLC was positive, with players praising its attention to detail, realistic performance, and authentic Arriva Trains Wales liveries. The inclusion of these scenarios provides varied gameplay, and the Class 150/2 remains a popular choice for those looking to experience British regional diesel operations within Train Simulator Classic.
