The Missabe Road: Safety First
QUOTE: Originally posted by coborn35 Technically yes, realistically no. It would be very hard for someone, other than people with training like Me,Ed, and MC............to driive the locomotive.
QUOTE: Originally posted by ironken Does the train simulator show you where the gen field switch is, isolation switch? What if the loco was left in trail? Does it show you how to set it up for the lead? By rule, engines not attached to cars cannot be left unattended on the main. If left unattended on auxillary tracks they must be protected by derail or a facing point switch lined and locked against movement. Can't go too far.
QUOTE: I think RRs can secure their idle locos by keeping them in secure locations or by locking the cab doors.
