Introducing Monotone’s Steam Locomotives: Early Start Edition for Soviet Republic

Enhance your Workers & Resources: Soviet Republic experience with this essential mod, bringing two classic British steam locomotives into the game, specifically updated for the challenges and opportunities of the Early Start DLC. Originally crafted by Monotone, these engines have been meticulously adapted to utilize coal as fuel, a crucial change for early-game industrial operations.

Peckett W Class: The Versatile Industrial Workhorse

The Peckett W Class offers a taste of early industrial power. These light industrial saddle tank locomotives, with variations spanning from 1884 to 1938, are now available to fuel your growing republic. Choose from a variety of historical color schemes including green, black, blue, grey, red, and yellow. While weighing in at a nimble 23 tonnes and reaching speeds of 40 kph with 163 kW of power, they are perfectly suited for shunting and light hauling duties in the crucial early stages of development.

GWR 5700: The Reliable Branch Line Engine

For more demanding routes, the GWR 5700 class is an excellent addition. As one of the most produced British steam locomotives, these engines were officially designated for light goods and shunting but proved their worth on passenger services for branch, suburban, and shorter mainline runs. Available in a classic black livery from 1929 to 1971, this 48.2-tonne locomotive boasts a top speed of 80 kph and a robust 440 kW power output, making it ideal for expanding your transportation network.

Key Features of the Mod:

  • Two iconic British steam locomotives: Peckett W Class and GWR 5700.
  • Updated for the Early Start DLC to run on coal.
  • Includes visual enhancements such as steam effects from the wheels.
