Scenarios for the NEC: New York-New Haven route.

Expert Controls Tutorial: HHP-8 Expert Controls.

Simple Controls Tutorial: HHP-8 Simple Controls.

Also included are scenarios specifically for the NEC: New York-New Haven route (available separately and required to play these scenarios).įour scenarios for the NEC: New York-New Haven route: The locomotive is also Quick Drive compatible, giving you the freedom to drive the Amtrak HHP-8 on any Quick Drive enabled route for Train Simulator.

Also included are Amfleet I passenger cars. The HHP-8 for Train Simulator is available in Amtrak’s renowned blue and silver livery, and features cruise control, in-cab signalling display with driver vigilance, switchable display screens, cab lights, flashing ditch lights and pantograph select. It also has a top design speed of 135mph (217 km/h) but is actually limited in service to FRA Tier 1 standards, operating up to 125mph (201 km/h). The locomotive is capable of running on three different power supplies seen on the Northeast Corridor from dual pantographs, picking up power from 12.5Kv 25 Hz AC catenary, 12.5Kv 60Hz AC catenary and 25 kV 60Hz AC catenary. Ironically, their lack of reliability and high maintenance costs meant the fleet was phased out just 10 years later, being replaced by the more modern and efficient ACS-64. Similar in external style to the Acela, the HHP-8 was designed to operate as a true locomotive to haul conventional passenger cars, as a replacement for Amtrak’s GE E60s and supplement the ageing EMD AEM-7s. Ordered in 1999, 15 locomotives were produced for Amtrak and six for MARC.
