GBR Class 802 Releasing Tomorrow!
A new iconic look is arriving soon in Train Sim World 6! Introducing the Great British Railways Class 802, showcasing a bold new livery that represents the next chapter of rail travel across the UK.
In collaboration with the UK Government, Dovetail Games has supported the debut of this brand-new identity since its initial unveiling on the platform in 2025. This marks the first time players can experience the new GBR livery, even before it appears across real-world services nationwide.
Across both routes, the Class 802 introduces new gameplay opportunities. Take on two dedicated scenarios per route, each offering unique challenges tailored to their environments.
Take on a range of bespoke scenarios, including:
Flying the Flag ▹ Take the 802 to the depot for a repaint before collecting the newly painted train and taking it out for its first service.
Riviera Rendezvous ▹ Take control of a special service celebrating the history of the Riviera Line while visiting historic landmarks along the route.
Snow Stopper ▹ Weeave through track closures and delays during a cold snap in the West Country.
Can’t Park There, Sir! ▹ A car has caused a level crossing failure, delaying passenger services on the ECML.
In addition, a special “All Stops” timetable service has been added in each direction on both routes:
ECML: 1Z78 and 1Z79
Riviera Line: 1Z44 and 1Z45
Train Sim World 6: Great British Railways Class 802 is releasing on May 6th 2026, 2026, for £4.99 / €5.99 / $5.99.
