    #1.Sand Jacks to work has to be open and closed for filling
    #2.Sand to be shown shooting out of the sand tubes onto the tracks
    #3.Working Mirror's give reflection on them
    #4.Give the right reading on Fuel tank gauges example SD40-2 has a
    3,200–4,000 US gallons TSW SD40-2 has 1,700 fuel tank WRONG !!!
    #5.Emergency fuel cutoff button
    #6.End porch walkway chains should go across to another loco unit when opened instead of hanging
    #7.Headlight and Ditch light's need to be brighter and see further in the dark, Dim needs to be a lot softer
    #8.Marker Lights or Classification Lights

    If you can think of anymore please add

    For 1 and 2 we first need the right physics. Right now there is no wheel slip even at winter or rain with slippery tracks.
    And for 5 isn't there a emergency fuel cutoff button on the backpanel of the locos?

    The only other thing I can think of is radio activity/ communication with the dispatch and conductors. And Head End Power,
