"We are very pleased to be working on Sandpatch with Maple Leaf Tracks," says Steve Milburn, Director of Marketing at Strategy First Inc. "Train enthusiasts are in for a great time."
Sandpatch is a realistic add-on for Microsoft Train Simulator. Players will experience one of America's most famous rail crossings, Sandpatch, which offers exciting challenges for all. Based on the Baltimore & Ohio's historic line, Sandpatch covers a distance of over 50 miles of mainline track between Cumberland, Maryland, and Rockwood, Pennsylvania. Included along the mainline are numerous spurs, interchanges, and branch lines, which make for exciting switching and way freight operations. As the engineer of a number of different freight trains, it is your job to pull massive loads of coal, autos, piggybacks, and general merchandise over the Allegheny Mountains. If heavy freights aren't your thing, there are several switching opportunities available as well.
"We strive to bring as much realism to the desktop as we can," says Jason Dilworth, Director of Operations at Maple Leaf Tracks Inc. "We are very excited to be working with Strategy First in order to bring this add-on to market. Microsoft Train Simulator, and its associated expansion packs, have great potential for the long term, and we feel that it will help develop a whole new hobby for virtual railroaders."
