Lighting operation when MU'ED with other engines
« on: July 26, 2024, 10:02:07 AM »
A friend of mine asked me this Rail Pro question, when you MU engines together (diesel) how will the headlights work in operation together, ie., with the lights on the headend engine how will the other engine work, will they turnoff as and when you reverse the engine will the rear engine headlight turn on. I run Rail Pro in my G scale engines, but I have never MU'ed my engines together, thanks for your answer.

Lighting and all sounds etc. are activated on each loco in the consist separately by switching the screen to the engine you wish to change. Throttle is common with all MUd engines, so after switching if you need to change the throttle, no need to go back to the lead engine.
