The mountainous Stevens Pass through the Cascade Mountains features the
longest railroad tunnel in the United States, and is now recreated in a
spectacular new route for Train Simulator.

Opened in 1893 by the Great Northern Railway, the pass is named after John
Frank Stevens, the first non-indigenous person to discover it. The Pass
stretches from Wenatchee on the Columbia River to Mukilteo, alongside Puget
Sound in Washington State, and travels through four major regions – the urban,
maritime Everett; the agricultural plains between Lowell and Gold Bar; the
heavily forested mountainous Cascades region; and the semi-arid eastern slope
with its ubiquitous fruit orchards.

The Pass was an important route for freight and passenger traffic to the West
Coast and on to Canada, and crossed some of the State’s most mountainous
regions. With major industries at both ends of the route, and many smaller
yards and industrial spurs in between – including the Boeing assembly facility
at Mukilteo – the Great Northern faced a challenge to keep the route open year
round.

A major achievement in engineering was realised with the opening of the 2.63
mile (4.2km) single track Cascade Tunnel in 1900 to avoid the problems caused
by heavy winter snowfalls. In 1929, portions of the railroad were realigned
between Leavenworth and Scenic, and a longer replacement tunnel – twas put
into service in the same year. This second tunnel stretched 7.79 mile
(12.5km), connecting Berne with Scenic Hot Springs.

Because of safety issues along the route and ventilation requirements in the
many tunnels through the mountains, only 28 trains per day are permitted to
traverse the Pass, including freight trains carrying Boeing fuselages from its
facility and the famous Empire Builder passenger train.

The Stevens Pass route for Train Simulator is a scenic recreation of the
mountainous route, featuring stations at Cashmere, Leavenmouth, Winton, Berne,
Skykomish, Baring, Gold Bar and Everett, as well as the Boeing construction
facility and major industrial yards at Wenatchee and Mukilteo.

Also included are locomotives and rolling stock often seen on the route,
including the EMD GP38-2, in ex-BN and BNSF Heritage liveries, and a GE ES44DC
diesel locomotive in BNSF livery, plus a selection of freight cars and unique
loads.

This beautiful route through the Cascade Mountains is a challenging drive,
with steep gradients, slow running and single track navigation ready to test
even the most experienced railroad engineers, but with stunning panoramas
across Washington State as a welcome reward.
