Chengdu High Speed Route

The Chengdu to Suining route is a modern dedicated high speed passenger route in Southwest China. Created for Train Simulator, it is based on the real route with enhancements. The route is 146km in length, and trains on the route are capable of running at 350 km/h. The fastest train takes only 33 minutes to finish the journey.

Starting from Chengdu, the capital city of Sichuan Province, the line passes through ShibanTan, Huaikou, Longsheng, Jijin, Zitong, Cangshan, Daying and ends in Suining, part of the Chengdu - Chongqing high speed line.

The route is equipped with the CTCS-3 (China Train Control System) signalling system so that both 350 km/h and 250 km/h capable trains can run on it.

Supplied with the route is the CRH1A EMU (Electro Motive Unit) that is designed for commuter use stopping at the stations along the route. This unit is capable of running at 250 km/h (155 mph) but in normal service runs at 220 km/h (137 mph). The CRH1E includes the CTCS-3 Cab signalling system.
Six Standard scenarios and one Free Roam scenario are included to allow you to fly at high speed on the ground and enjoy the beautiful scenery of the Sichuan Basin area.
