Trainz 22: BR CoalHop Pack

The BR CoalHop Pack is an add-on for Trainz Railroad Simulator 2022, developed by community creator dundun92 and published by N3V Games. It was released in 2026 as part of the ongoing expansion of British-themed content for Trainz 2022. The pack is designed to integrate directly into the existing simulator, requiring the base Trainz 2022 title to operate and fitting within the established ecosystem of official DLC released through the platform.

The DLC focuses on British Railways-era freight stock, specifically coal hopper and related wagons that were widely used from the steam era through to the later decades of diesel operation. It includes models representing common BR designs such as the HTO, HOP and HTV wagons, allowing players to more accurately recreate coal traffic and general mineral workings on British routes. The emphasis is on operational realism, historical accuracy and compatibility with existing British locomotives and routes already available in Trainz.

Promotion of the BR CoalHop Pack has been relatively low-key, following the standard approach used for many Trainz rolling stock packs. It has primarily been marketed through its official store listing and visibility within the Trainz DLC catalogue, rather than through large-scale announcements or promotional campaigns. This method is typical for smaller, asset-focused releases that are aimed squarely at established Trainz users with an interest in specific eras or regions.

As the pack was only released recently, there are currently no Steam user reviews available to assess its reception through formal ratings. Early discussion within the Trainz community has instead taken place on forums and social spaces, where interest has centred on the usefulness of the wagons for British layouts and the quality of the modelling. Initial reactions appear measured but positive, with the pack being seen as a welcome addition for players looking to expand their British freight operations, while wider feedback is expected to develop as more users spend time with the content.
