Train Ride

- Choose a route, train, and scenario in Career or jump into Free Ride for open exploration. - Power up the cab: insert the master key, set the reverser, release brakes, and apply throttle to depart smoothly. - Follow signals and speed limits using the HUD and trackside signs to avoid penalties and keep services safe. - Plan braking early, stop at platform markers, and operate doors promptly to stay on schedule. - Manage weather, gradients, and traction by adjusting throttle, dynamic braking, and sand to prevent wheel slip. - Complete services cleanly to earn scores and unlock new locomotives, routes, and liveries; revisit runs to improve performance.
