    I was playing around with the AC440CW the other day, and accidentally pressed Ctrl+Space. On the HUD the “horn sequencer” popped up. Couldn’t find anything in the manual. Just wondering what it does and how to properly activate it? Does anyone know?

    Try looking in the controls page. I, right now, don't know anything about it either.

    I believe there is a horn sequence that American locos have to sound for railway crossings. I believe this used to automate it. TrainSim-Matt may be able to confirm further, about this and the function removal, as I'm sure I heard him talk about it on a stream... (happy to be corrected)

    Horn sequence on AC4400CW is for railway crossings warning --.- tone.
    It's broken in TSW2 and play no horn sound, in TSW2020 work as should.

    Ahhhh ok, makes sense. Also the railroad crossings (ding-ding-ding-ding) are silent on Sand Patch Grade in TSW 2. Hope they’ll fix them.

    Yeah it's supposed to automatically do the long-long-short-long horn sequence when pressed, so the driver doesn't have to themselves. Though I didn't know it doesn't work in TSW2.

    Why is the AC4400CW so broken in TSW2?
