This is kind of a loco which you can't move without reading the manual first. It's driving controls are very different from anything else in Train simulator. First, it's most unique feature is cruise control (AFB) with 3 distinct modes - stop-and-go, uphill, downhill. Throttle input with A/D keys sets the target speed, not the power output, while power or brakes added automatically (depending on the mode). Manual power control also possible, it's usable for shunting mode or moving without the train. Also, it has ZWS driving mode , when locomotive remotely controlled from driving trailer in push-pull trains. The driving controls feel awkward at first sight, but once you get mastered it, you can easily accelerate and brake on RegionalBahn routes with short distance between stops. On the negative side this add-on is very old (dated by 2012), so it doesn't have all fancy features like openale doors/windows, sparks from the pantograph. I wish cab would be more detailed. But from the driver's prospective it's very fun to drive, because of nicely implemented sophisticated controls. Also, this loco cannot be driven in simple mode, or using HUD driving aids... HUD only shows power/brake level in %, but handles can be operated only by mouse or keyboard.

This is a stunningly amazing piece of DLC, I came across issues with it the first time I actually purchased it when it was on discount, my issue was that I had the Lua 5.2 installed onto my system why TS2014 only supported Lua 5.1 and due to the code changes the train didn't want to start, but I solved it by downgrading. This is truly stunning, the amount of detail that is put into it, the controls and the realism, is just amazing. This is a third party DLC, virtualRailways did an amazing job with it, I can only recommend, but only at low price! I rate this 10 out of 10.
