The extraordinary challenges and memorable railroading of “the steepest standard gauge, mainline railway grade in the U. S.,” comes to Train Simulator Classic – with The Saluda Grade: Asheville – Spartanburg route!
Created for Train Simulator Classic by acclaimed developer High Iron Simulations, this historic Norfolk Southern (ex-Southern Railway) route extends 70 miles from Asheville, North Carolina, to Spartanburg, South Carolina, and includes the legendary and daunting 4.7 per cent railroad grade that ascended the east slope of the magnificent Blue Ridge Mountains.
With the Saluda Grade: Asheville – Spartanburg route, you’ll climb aboard three types of authentic Norfolk Southern diesels and experience extraordinary and memorable mountain railroading. The climb and the descent of 4.7 percent Saluda Grade both represented one of the great challenges of North American railroading, and with this “Pro Range” route, you’ll experience those challenges in full and ultra-realistic fashion. In addition to the unrivaled Saluda Grade, the route is tough and unforgiving from end to end, with numerous grade of more than 1 percent stretching in roller-coaster fashion over virtually the entire length of the line!
The Saluda Grade: Asheville – Spartanburg route for Train Simulator Classic, set during the 1980s/1990s, is remarkable, too, for its wealth of operations and varied railroading experiences. Anchored by sprawling Asheville and Spartanburg (Hayne) yards, the route features sidings, spurs, and branches that serve more than 40 busy industries, including the Skyland coal-fired power plant, the Cane Creek industrial complex, and numerous wood yard, lumber mill, cement, quarry, warehousing, and manufacturing shippers.

Each of the locomotive types features advanced and realistic air braking and operating features.
