Train Simulator Classic, the ultimate railway hobby, returns with a new core package in 2025, featuring three iconic routes from the wide world of railways. In this article, we outline the offering in 2025 and answer questions about the present and the future of our much-loved, longest-running train simulation title. We also announce a new country coming to TSC in the form of a future route Add-on! Read on to find out more.

The release last year was called ‘Train Simulator Classic 2024’. This year, it is simply ‘Train Simulator Classic’. Why the change?

The ‘Classic’ label was introduced a couple of years ago, and reflects the status of TSC as our original, long-standing train sim, which offers a different experience and a different appeal to Train Sim World. 2024 was a landmark year, combining a number of updates to the core code, as well as being the 15th anniversary of Train Simulator, which launched in 2009 as RailWorks. This year, we are reverting back to the simple ‘Classic’ naming for the longer term – though we may still offer alternative editions to go alongside ‘Classic’.

What does that mean for the core game?

We are sticking with the current version of the game code. We did a lot of work on the core last time, and we feel it is now stable for the majority of players. To make any further code changes would again take us along a path of potential disruption for players and for developers, and it doesn’t seem warranted or fair to do that at this point.

What is different about TS Classic this time around? What makes it interesting for players or would-be players?

A major difference this time is the inclusion of Partner Developer route and loco content within the core package. Like many games, TSC has included components developed by external creators many times over the years, right back to the days of RailWorks in 2009. This year’s version is unusual in that it features two complete routes, with locos, entirely conceived developed and by third party developers.

So, what will be included in TSC, and why will third-party routes form part of it?

In keeping with the ‘Classic’ theme, TSC will feature three routes from our traditional TSC heartlands – the UK, the USA and Germany. Our very own Chatham Main Line: London Victoria & Blackfriars – Dover & Ramsgate is all about commuter services, with a lengthy track map and plenty to do. On the other hand, Norfolk Southern Saluda Grade by High Iron Simulations puts you in charge of heavy freight trains tackling the hills of North Carolina, while TSG’s Konstanz – Villingen gets you moving both passengers and freight on the Upper Rhine and Black Forest railways.



The Chatham Main Line is featured in its entirety from London Victoria to Ramsgate and Dover via Faversham. The Sheerness Branch is also included, as is London Blackfriars, totalling over 130 miles of South East railway to explore. Also featuring are a selection of Southeastern EMUs, including the BR Class 465/9 for long-distance Networker action.



The historic Norfolk Southern (ex-Southern Railway) Saluda Grade route extends 70 miles from Asheville, North Carolina, to Spartanburg, South Carolina, and includes the legendary and daunting 4.7 per cent railroad grade that ascended the east slope of the magnificent Blue Ridge Mountains. You’ll climb aboard three types of authentic Norfolk Southern diesels and experience extraordinary and memorable mountain railroading.



Konstanz and Villingen are connected by more than 90km of scenic inter-city rail. From Konstanz, the line starts off as the Upper Rhine Railway, which has followed the path of the great river since the 1840s. The Upper Rhine Railway stretches all the way from Mannheim down to the Swiss city of Basel, before sharply darting east and following, plus frequently crossing, the German-Swiss border all the way to Konstanz. Trains from Konstanz, bound for Villingen, follow this path as far as Singen. You will experience all of this from the cab of the BR111 and the BR189.

Now that TS Classic relies more heavily on third-party content, making it part of the core product means that we can continue to offer refreshed TSC core packs for a long time to come, built around some of the most popular third-party routes and locos with all their expertise and innovation built in.

What role does DTG play in the life of TS Classic now? Has the focus shifted away from TSC now?

DTG is still committed to the future of TS Classic! We simply rely much more now on the thriving third party development community to bring new content to TSC, and to Steam, and we plan to continue working with 3PPs for as long as they plan to work with us. Even in the past year, we have begun work with additional developers such as 3D Zug, Diesel Workshop and others, and many other familiar developers are working on new content for TSC at this moment.

In fact, we're delighted to announce that we'll be bringing a brand new country to TS Classic this year: The Netherlands! It's a little way off yet, but an all-new route from Amsterdam to Hilversum is currently in the works, and will be a joint production by DTG and Jasksoft.

We're excited to see what you think, and we'll share more details in the future. For now though, here's an in-progress picture to whet your appetites:
