They're nice locos, but the horn is not as realistic and there's no bell sound. Either Steam or DTG needs to fix this, because now I've screwed up the horn trying to swap it out with another horn as well as trying to add a bell.

Really good! Disclaimer… they all have the same horn. It’s not a bad horn but it’s on all of them

Great but highly recommend purchasing during a sale.
Like everyone else is saying, bell doesn't work but can be easily fixed by additionally purchasing the GEVO12 sound pack by Searchlight Simulations. The best part is you do get a wide-range of different heritage units for the price, just unfortunate how DTG will miss out the smaller things...

Eh, I'm on the fence with this one. Are you good at adding 3rd party content to your existing models? Just download them free from Railworks America, then. This is more or less just a reskin pack of the normal ES44, so you're not really getting a new model out of this. If you're not good at adding reskins, then grab this pack on sale. Its older, and has a bell bug that I would say doesn't make this pack worth 20 bucks, but it is a decent bargain on sale.

To be honest with you, when I first got this, I was very disappointed. The horn is shit, the bell is also shit, so I got a refund. HOWEVER, It is much better now that I installed the Searchlight Simulations GEVO-12 Engine Pack which improves every single Gevo you have. So I got this pack again and have been loving it now that the things that used to bother me now don't bother me. Recommend!

Horrible horn, but epic addon!
Also a quick con:
In the back of the cab you can see a Union Pacific decal, meaning the livery was just put on a UP ES44AC.

Cannot and WILL NOT recommend this pack until the bell sound is officialy patched. DTG has known about this issue since BEFORE they were DTG and REFUSES to fix it. Completely unnaceptable. It's a simple copy & paste fix from the Sherman Hill ES44's files if you want to unpack .ap files yourself, but good grief DTG... Get it together!

These are some really nice looking locos created for Train Simulator. My two favorite liveries in this pack or Conrail and Central of Georgia. Basically what this DLC is are the NS Heritage ES44ACs repainted into fallen RR liveries to represent Norfolk Southern's heritage(DTG also did the NS Heritage SD70ACes in a separate pack along with the UP Heritage SD70ACes). Not only does this DLC include 10 highly detailed engines, but three freight wagons, a ballast hopper, autoparts boxcar and low side gondola. Sounds-Engines sounds are nice but the horns are not realisitc at all. Even though the horns are not the best but it is a nice sounding horn. This is a recocmended DLC!

PLEASE READ ON HOW TO FIX THE BELL
By default the bell for this loco doesnt work correctly. To fix it (once downloaded and installed from steam) go to the assets folder for railworks (in my case) and find the following folder for this loco
SteamLibrary\SteamApps\common\RailWorks\Assets\RSC\ES44NSHP\Audio\RailVehicles\Diesel\ES44
Then go into the Cab folder and find T_ES44_E-BELL.dav and take the file out (ie cut it / remove it) from
SteamLibrary\SteamApps\common\RailWorks\Assets\RSC\ES44NSHP\Audio\RailVehicles\Diesel\ES44\Cab
to
SteamLibrary\SteamApps\common\RailWorks\Assets\RSC\ES44NSHP\Audio\RailVehicles\Diesel\ES44
Make sure the T_ES44_E-BELL.dav no longer exists in the cab folder, it should only be in Audio\RailVehicles\Diesel\ES44
Hope this helps and give this DLC a thumbs up :)
