Find your vehicle list
Open a compatible depot or use Buy Vehicles from line management. Train stores separate locomotives, wagons and multiple units. Filter by the cargo you need, then read availability, loading speed, comfort, noise and running costs in the selected model’s details.

A dated vehicle catalogue outside the game
Mr. Locomotive’s player-maintained Steam guide groups models by transport family and era. Its stated coverage date is 2 October 2026; the page was updated on 4 October. Use it for browsing, then confirm the model in your installed build.
The author separates Deluxe and pre-order content and discusses adding official vehicle mods separately. Its title’s completeness claim belongs to the author; Routebook has not audited every entry or reproduced its numerical database.

|---|---|
| Concorde | Passenger aircraft |
| London Bus | Bus |
| Trans-Europe Express | Rail |
| Peterbilt 359 | Truck |

Before replacing a train
Record the existing train’s passengers or cargo per trip, loading delay and running balance. A faster locomotive can be a poor upgrade if the platform, route or wagons remain the constraint. Compare the same route before and after one change.
A full TF3 model-by-model numerical database is not published on Routebook. The FAQ and store use different headline vehicle counts; this guide does not treat either count as an enumerated roster.
