About This Content At a time when US locomotive builders were vying for more horsepower, General Motors’ Electro-Motive Division introduced the new generation GP30 that was later to become a hugely successful diesel-electric locomotive for many US Class I railroads.Seen as the answer to competitors’ more powerful diesel locomotives, General Motors’ EMD GP30 was considered one of the first so-called ‘second generation’ diesel locomotives produced by the company. General Electric had already stolen the march on 2,500hp locomotives with its U25B, and although the GP20 was only rated at 2,250hp, EMD traded on its reputation to sell units to US railroads.In total, 948 models were built between July 1961 and November 1963 for railroads in the US and Canada, including 40 cabless B units for the Union Pacific Railroad. Some elements of the earlier GP20 were carried across, although the GP30’s trademark ‘hump’ and cab roof profile made it stand out from other similar diesel locomotives.A number of GP30s remain in service today in their original or rebuilt form, with 17 models currently preserved, some still in operational condition.The EMD GP30 for Train Simulator, developed by DigitalTrainModel, is available in Union Pacific livery and features opening cab doors and windows, cab lights, a strobe light, numberboard lights and platform lights. A cabless 'B' unit is also included to recreate prototypical workings, alongside a number of freight cars such as 40ft Airslide Hoppers, 50ft Boxcars, Flatcars with loads, Hopper Grains, a Caboose and 70ton Coal Hoppers.The locomotive is also Quick Drive compatible, giving you the freedom to drive the Union Pacific GP30 on any Quick Drive enabled route for Train Simulator, such as those available through Steam. Also included are scenarios specifically for the Sherman Hill route (available separately and required to play these scenarios).ScenariosFour scenarios for the Sherman Hill route:Break in ShermanCement and Coal to DenverEmpty Stock to GraniteOutside CheyenneMore scenarios are available on Steam Workshop online and in-game.

The DTM one has accurate sounds, a good horn, opening doors, and great lighting effects. Also its strangely powerful for 2250 HP. Also included are some amazing rolling stock. Also there are bad cab view bugs, like when you open your window when its raining (I would never open my window in the rain anyway) the rain still falls on the protected window. Also there is cab view in the cables units. Other than the yellow being a little bit off, these bugs are rarely seen wile in gameplay and can be easily avoided. I would recommend this add-on to classic EMD fans, but not to people that want NO bugs.. Good locomotive. Only wish that DTG had at least one other repint in the store.. Fun little engine to drive. Nice horn, good for switching scenerios.. there is no wheels on it and there is no track at all. its just locomotive itself. please help how? thank you.. I just finished my fourth scenario with the new GP30s and I am very pleased. They look and sound great and the physics seem to be up to par (some may disagree with me on this, but I didn't notice anything strange or unusual). One thing I did notice is the dynamic brakes do not work on the HUD, or at least they didn't on mine. These locos do have functioning dynamic brakes, however, they will only work by using the selector on the control stand. Simply move the selector lever until you see "IDLE" over "DYN" and then advance the throttle just like an engineer would do in the real world. I like the doors and side windows that open and close. It would have been a nice touch to have the loco and horn sounds increase to some degree when the windows and\/or doors are open just as I have experienced on real locomotives. I personally like the cab views and feel like I'm sitting in the proper place on either side. The flasher beacon on the top is also a nice touch, and don't forget to turn it on when you turn on your headlights. Additionally, the lighted gauges are well done and not too bright during night running. All in all, this is worth a U.S. $20 bill if you're into early second generation EMD locos. I also have a feeling that this loco will be featured in many future scenarios, and in fact, two have already been released as of the time of the review on 2\/9\/15.. Engine is OK, but scenario "Outside Cheyenne" is really bad. It's not possible to be on time and don't get the timeliness penalty even if you keep carefully the speed limit. I got hundreds of minus points.But what is much worse, is the end of this scenario! All time the switches are set automatically for me, but at the Cheyenne siding I had to throw some switch myself but wasn't warned about this at all. So I have seen a message "Player train has left path. Game over in 60 seconds." I haven't to say you can do anything with this at this moment, because it's not enough of time.. This is a great loco (in my opinion) because it comes with some good rollingstock great sounds and an ability to make some cooler lashups. It does have some problems though same as all dlc. All in all i would recommend it to anyone.. Excellent Locomotive. Has some great features, cab light, beacon, windows open, etc. Already used this in a couple of scenarios I already had..
