    About This Content



    Explore the thrills of a new territory as Turkey makes its debut in
    Train Simulator Classic, with AND Model’s breathtakingly scenic Taurus
    Mountains route!



    Rich in history and importance, the Taurus Mountains were conquered
    by rail throughout the latter part of the 19th century and into the
    early 20th century, as part of a much bigger plan to link Berlin and
    Baghdad. Mostly single track, the line weaves itself through gorgeous
    terrain from end to end, and is unelectrified throughout, making for
    an unobstructed view of the mountain pass.



    The Taurus Mountains route is as challenging as it is
    famous. Located in Southern Turkey, this section represents the 125km
    stretch between Yenice, Tarsus County and Ulukışla, Niğde
    District. Making its way through 1400 meters of changing elevation,
    passing through 37 tunnels and over 60 bridges en route, including the
    famous Varda Viaduct (used in the filming of Skyfall), this is an
    experience not to be missed.



    Boasting 9 mainline stations plus a small halt, as well as bespoke
    railway infrastructure such as turntables, container loading stations
    and depots, all captured in exquisite detail, the Taurus Mountains
    route has everything one could need to be fully immersed in Turkish
    rail.



    Never before seen challenges await as you take control of the
    realistic DE 24000 locomotive. A 1970s classic still operating today,
    this 2400hp diesel-electric stallion is entirely analogue in operation
    and requires attention to master. With it, power through the mountains
    on both passenger and freight duties.



    Rejoice as Train Simulator Classic’s first ever Turkish route,
    Taurus Mountains: Ulukışla - Yenice, is available now from AND
    Model!
