    For the Edinbrugh to Glasgow route DLC, the class 158's have access to a conductor mode, as 385's now regularly service this route, in replacement of the 158's, I would like to suggest adding conductor mode to the class 385 as well, same stops, just a different train.

    Well it would be better than driving the wretched things in game!

    Should prioritise fixing the loco over adding new stuff to it

    Out of curiosity, what issues are there with the 385? It appears realistic, drives without issue, not sure if the speed of breaking/acceleration is accurate though

    Well the sounds are awful for one thing, like a bag of bolts being shaken around. I try and avoid driving the wretched thing TBH even the 380 with its overpowered brakes is preferable.

    I think the 385 needs a full overhaul anyways.

    Many things wrong with it. Physics are wrong, sounds are wrong. The whole thing is just wrong. Rivet will never come back to it, that’s the sad part.

    At the current moment it’s just a bunch of useless scrap

    The sounds and physics don't bother me much (disregarding I've only driven it I think maybe once or twice)

    It's the cramped feeling I get just by looking at it.
