"If he were DCC he wouldn't even have made it to the forum yet. He would still be busy with CVs and setting up speed tables!  :P"

How true!

Antoine L.:
I personally enjoy when the engine starts moving around 20% myself. It gives time for the sound of the engine to notch up a few times before actual movement, a bit like the prototype would do. I am not fan of manual notching but I think the end result is interesting.

Good point. I do not use on-board sound. I will remember to take that into account when replying in the future.

TwinStar:
I used to switch Centennial Yard in Ft Worth with an SD40-2 on the lead, a GENSET in the middle, and a GP15 on the rear. The 15 would load first and take up or push the slack, the SD40 would load and then pull or push all the weight, and the GENSET would just sit back there and catch on fire. This sounds prototypical to me!

Alan:
Too funny!
