The GWR 1000 Class 'County Class' DLC for Train Simulator Classic was developed by Victory Works and released by Dovetail Games in 2018. This add-on features the 4-6-0 steam locomotive designed by F. W. Hawksworth for the Great Western Railway (GWR). Built between 1945 and 1947, the County Class locomotives were intended for mixed-traffic duties, offering a balance between passenger and freight services. The DLC includes a detailed model of the County Class, capturing its distinctive features and operational characteristics.

The County Class locomotives were powered by a 280 psi boiler, later reduced to 250 psi, and featured a tractive effort of 32,580 lbf, later reduced to 29,090 lbf. They were equipped with two outside cylinders and used a Stephenson valve gear. The DLC offers multiple liveries for the County Class, including GWR Green, BR Mixed Traffic Black, and BR Lined Green, reflecting the locomotive's service under both GWR and British Railways.

Included with the DLC are four named service headboards and customizable reporting numbers for all engines, allowing players to personalize their locomotive. Optional parts and fittings are also available, including painted or polished safety valve covers, three styles of chimney, lining, power discs, and a speedometer. The locomotive features a realistic cab with multiple views, including dual head-out and a fully modeled firebox and coal, enhancing the immersive experience.

Reception of the DLC has been positive, with players praising the attention to detail, customization options, and the realistic portrayal of the County Class. The locomotive's versatility in both passenger and freight services, combined with its historical accuracy, makes it a valuable addition for enthusiasts of British steam locomotives.
