The GWR Class 14XX DLC for Train Simulator Classic, developed by Victory Works and released in 2014, offers a detailed simulation of the Great Western Railway's 0-4-2T tank locomotives. These diminutive engines were designed for branch line services, particularly for push-pull operations with autocoaches, allowing for efficient services on lines without turning facilities. The DLC includes four variants: the GWR 48XX and 58XX classes, as well as the BR 14XX and 58XX classes, each with appropriate liveries and configurations.

The locomotives are equipped with realistic features, including a fully modelled cab with multiple views, animated valve gear, and a simulated steam chest. Players can manage cylinder cocks and operate realistic injectors, adding depth to the driving experience. The inclusion of opening windows with rain effects and dynamic lamp settings further enhances immersion.

For gameplay, the DLC offers three driving modes: Simple, Standard, and Advanced. These modes cater to players of varying skill levels, from beginners to seasoned enthusiasts. Additionally, the DLC includes six career scenarios set on the Falmouth Branch route, providing structured challenges that reflect the operational duties of the Class 14XX locomotives.

Reception of the DLC has been generally positive, with praise directed at the attention to detail in the locomotive models and the authenticity of the driving experience. However, some users have noted that the Advanced mode's controls, particularly for managing the injectors, can be challenging, especially when using a mouse. Despite this, the DLC remains a valuable addition for those interested in the Great Western Railway's operations.
