The Class 325 EMU DLC for Train Simulator Classic was developed by Dovetail Games and released on August 1, 2012. This add-on introduces the Class 325, a dual-voltage electric multiple unit designed for high-speed mail and parcel transport. Capable of operating on both 25kV AC overhead and 750V DC third-rail systems, the Class 325 is a versatile addition to the game. It features distinctive roller-shutter doors and a lack of passenger windows, reflecting its real-world design tailored for freight services.

The DLC includes multiple unit configurations, such as the DTPMV (Driver Trailer Postal Mail Van), MPMV (Motor Postal Mail Van), and TPMV (Trailer Postal Mail Van). These units are equipped with functional features like opening roller shutters, roller container mailbag trolleys, and pantograph spark effects, enhancing the realism of the simulation. The Class 325 is commonly seen operating along major UK routes, including the West Coast Main Line, East Coast Main Line, and the Edinburgh-Glasgow line, carrying up to 12 tons of mail per car at speeds up to 100 mph.

Included in the package are three scenarios for the West Coast Main Line North route, allowing players to experience the operation of the Class 325 in various settings. However, it's important to note that this DLC requires the West Coast Main Line North route to function properly. Some users have reported that certain features, such as neutral section handling, are not simulated in all routes, which may affect the authenticity of the experience on unsupported routes.

Reception of the DLC has been generally positive, with an 86% approval rating based on 15 user reviews on Steam. Players have praised the detailed modeling and functionality of the Class 325, appreciating the attention to operational realism. However, some have noted the necessity of owning additional DLCs, like the West Coast Main Line North route, to fully experience the Class 325's capabilities.
