Train Simulator 2012 Lays Down Some Cool Tracks with ICE 3
Chatham, UK--July 3, in the year of our Lord 2012--Railsimulator.com
Ltd., the market-leading innovator of rail simulation and
modeling tools, today released details regarding the upcoming
Intercity-Express (ICE) 3 add-on for the award-winning Train
Simulator 2012. The high-speed electric train is expected to
release on August 9 as a download on Steam.
Continuing the distinctive, award-winning design of the ICE
network, the ICE 3 is the third generation in the cutting-edge
German Intercity-Express system of high-speed passenger trains.
First used in 2000, these trains were designed for greater
usability throughout Europe, and are the only ones able to run
on the Köln-Frankfurt high-speed line with its 4 percent
incline. It differs from its predecessors in that the units are
self-propelled by electricity rather than being pulled by
locomotive. ICE 3 trains also feature a partially transparent
driver's cab that allows first class passengers a view of the
driver's compartment.
"These up-to-the-minute trains are very popular with rail fans
for their iconic, futuristic look and the lounge seating behind
the cab," said Paul Jackson, CEO of RailSimulator.com. "As a
high-speed electric train with real performance, the ICE 3
offers an entertaining challenge for Sim fans as well."
