Freightliner launched Project Genesis in 2007 to acquire 30 fuel-efficient locomotives from General Electric, matching the haulage power of older models while cutting fuel use. This collaboration shaped a driver-focused cab design. The Trainz 2019 DLC brings the BR Class 70 Freightliner to life with a detailed model, realistic textures, and modern PBR technology on PC.
Pilots operate a faithful driver's cabin complete with functional windows, sunblind, wipers, and displays. Nameplates for The Coal Society and Powerhaul add authenticity, alongside running numbers and custom engine sounds. Train simulation fans who value precise scripting and operational details will find this addition essential for their routes.
In November 2007, Freightliner announced Project Genesis (unrelated to GE's Genesis series built for Amtrak), a procurement plan for 30 freight locomotives from General Electric (GE). The locomotives ordered were intended to match older types in terms of haulage capacity whilst at the same time being more fuel-efficient. The project was a collaborative effort between Freightliner and GE, with input from drivers on the cab design. 3DZUG developed this modern British locomotive for TRS with the latest PBR techology.
