Euro PBC coming soon..

Announcing the Euro PBC – coming 2026
The Euro-Specific PBC is purpose-built for German and continental European train simulation, delivering an authentic driving experience tailored to European rail operations.

Built on the proven foundation of the PBC Pro, it retains popular features such as interchangeable notches and expansion ports, while introducing dedicated European-focused enhancements including integrated PZB controls and notch layouts designed specifically for European rolling stock.

Perfect for serious enthusiasts who want the flexibility of the PBC Pro platform with controls focused on European train driving. (You might want to wait for this rather than the PBC Pro if you are based in Europe).

Please get in touch if you would like to provide feedback for development.

The image shown is a concept design and final specifications may change during development.

PBC Pro on sale 12 June 19:05 UK time.

First batch on sale Friday 12th June 19:05 UK time.

🔥 First Batch Drops Tomorrow!
Stock is limited and expected to sell out fast. Miss this one? The next batch lands in July.

Why won't there be enough to go round for a while?

  • Each PBC Pro is packed personally for the customer. For example, any custom options, plus the handles required. This means each order is individually finished and packed upon order. So there cant just be a load of pre-packaged PBC’s made and sent out, like other products on the market.
  • Due to the high cost of holding stock, only a limited amount can be made at first. The parts used are premium and chosen for quality rather than just cost, so the parts make up a large cost of the product.
  • The first batch, and probably the 2nd, needs more attention and tweaks being the first main runs, so will take longer to produce each unit.
Please bare with me whilst batches go on sale over the next few months. Eventually they will be in stock permanently, but that will probably take a while. These are more akin to cottage industry products as opposed to large scale manufactured products. This also means the first batch may take a couple of weeks or so to fulfil all orders.

PBC Pro coming soon!

Announcing from the Greatest Gathering, a brand new and improved version of the previous Power Brake Controller.

This is what you’ve been waiting for!
  • Massively improved handle feel, closer to the real thing! Handle movement is a lot stiffer along with much better notching.
  • 4 changeable notch mode using the inbuilt selector switch:
  • 7 power and 4 brake (limiter piece included to stop at 4 power notches)
  • Smooth PBC mode – central notch and emergency braking notch.
  • Smooth mode, no notches, great for locomotives.
  • Full metal enclosure gives a great new solid feel to the unit.
Fully featured controller compatible with pretty much every train in Train Simulator Classic and Train Sim World 5. Use as a combined power brake controller, or a throttle only for units with separate brakes.

Includes the Master key, reverser and lever, with acts as either a horn or a PBL style brake.
There are three different handles available, the classic networker/electrostar style, ball style, and T-bar.

Availability hopefully this year, Pricing to be finalised soon.
