The DB BR423 EMU DLC for Train Simulator Classic, developed by Dovetail Games and released on May 9, 2013, introduces players to the versatile German electric multiple unit (EMU) that operates on S-Bahn services across Germany. Built between 1998 and 2007, the BR423 was designed for high-capacity, frequent-stop services, making it ideal for urban and suburban routes. With a top speed of 140 km/h (87 mph), the BR423 offers a balance between efficiency and performance, catering to the demands of busy commuter lines.

This DLC includes the BR423 in Deutsche Bahn's red livery, faithfully recreated with attention to detail. The in-cab experience is enhanced with a fully functional SIFA driver vigilance system, PZB90 warning system, and LZB in-cab signalling, providing an authentic driving experience. The interior features an internal passenger view, allowing players to immerse themselves in the environment. Additionally, the BR423 is Quick Drive compatible, enabling players to operate the unit on any Quick Drive-enabled route within Train Simulator Classic.

For structured gameplay, the DLC offers three career scenarios set on the Munich–Augsburg route. These scenarios challenge players with tasks such as driver training, scheduled services, and handling unexpected disruptions, reflecting the real-world operations of the BR423. The inclusion of these scenarios adds depth to the simulation, providing players with a comprehensive understanding of the BR423's role in Germany's S-Bahn network.

Reception of the BR423 EMU DLC has been mixed. While many players appreciate the detailed modelling and realistic operational systems, some have noted that the DLC's content is relatively limited compared to other offerings. The requirement of the Munich–Augsburg route to fully experience the included scenarios has also been a point of contention for some users. Despite these criticisms, the BR423 EMU remains a valuable addition for those interested in German commuter rail operations.
