    Guess this maybe another of the save bugs, when I came back into CR train 94, southbound manifest, the engine was shut down and the engine room alarm bell was ringing. I was able to recover and get the engine fired back up and the train running, but I cannot figure out how to shut off that darn bell.

    You have to shut it off the bell in the other cab unit too.

    OK, but where is the bell off button/switch located in each cab?

    ShodanCat, tried that one and it turned on the outside bell and had no effect on the engine alarm bell, but thanks for the suggestion.

    Again thanks ShodanCat, I came back in the morning to a stopped prime mover again. So today, after getting the train stopped and the prime mover re-started. I tried both of your suggestions. First jumped to the rear cab and looked around and all was fine then back into the lead cab and was able to quiet the bell with that switch. The key has to be going to the rear cab, since the first time I did not and the bell would not shut off/
