Drive a locomotive in a high-detail virtual world
We develop and deliver together with the simulator a virtual world – the most accurate copy of the railway within which the learning process will take place.
Time
The virtual world saves time on learning a new route due to the high accuracy of the world.
Skills
A large selection of settings allows you to work out the skills of the driver in emergency situations and in different weather conditions.
Money
Training in the virtual world saves the company money and protects against the risks of a rolling stock accident.
The virtual world of UK Railways
The British railway is one of the oldest in the world. The first public railway on locomotive traction was launched here at the beginning of the 19th century.
Currently, the UK railway network ranks 17th in the world in terms of track length. At the same time, the UK remains one of the most densely covered by railways in Europe. Almost all of them are in the hands of a private operator company – Network Rail.
Our company continues to develop the virtual world of UK railways. As of 2022, three such worlds have been created, within which it is possible to receive training in train driving on several routes of the country.
Route “Preston – Penrith”
The virtual world allows the locomotive driver to quickly master the route “Preston – Penrith” and confidently bring the train to this distance of the way.

Route “Didcot – Reading – Guiford – Redhill – Gatwick Airport”
The virtual world allows the locomotive driver to quickly master the route “Didcot – Reading – Guiford – Redhill – Gatwick Airport” and confidently bring the train to this distance of the way.

Routes:
The virtual world allows the locomotive driver to quickly master the route “Rugby – Birmingham – Stafford – to Crewe; Rugby – Nuneaton – Stafford; Norton Bridge – Stone; Colwich Junction – Stoke-on-Trent – Longport; Wolverhampton – Shrewsbury” and confidently bring the train to this distance of the way.
