MSTS Genesis Locomotive

Amtrak’s Genesis locomotive becomes fully drivable with a revised .eng file that improves throttle response and adds convincing smoke for more authentic runs in Microsoft Train Simulator. The update pairs the Genesis with borrowed cabview and sound assets for a complete driving experience and requires the Dash 9 cabview and sound folders.

MSTS Genesis locomotive. A modified .eng file that makes the default Amtrak Genesis driveable.

Wow, I finally did it, took me an hour to do, I made the Genesis available for user control.

To install:

Put genesis.eng into your TRAINS\TRAINSET\GENESIS folder. Copy the sound and cabview folders from the Dash 9 and put them into the Genesis folder, and that should do it, now with added smoke and throttle fix.

Thanks,
Matt Chamberlain

How to install this mod

flight simulator add-on

  1. Extract the downloaded archive

    Use 7-Zip (free) or WinRAR to extract the ZIP to a temporary folder. Don't install while still zipped — the simulator can't read inside ZIP files.

  2. Identify the target folder

    Different simulators use different folder structures. Check the readme to confirm where files should be placed.

  3. Copy files to the correct location

    Drag the extracted folder into the location the readme specifies. Most add-ons just need to be in the right folder.

  4. Always read the included readme

    Every mod ships with a readme.txt or README file. It tells you exactly where files go, what dependencies are needed, and any quirks specific to this add-on.
Still stuck? The readme included with the file is the authoritative source for this specific mod. Visit our Flight School tutorials or ask in our Q&A forum.
