    Slightly off topic, but how does one get AFB to work on DCZ? I messed around with the lever a little on the 185, but didn't notice any difference in train behaviour, hud, etc.

    While stopped:
    1. Throttle at off (not min)
    2. AFB main switch to on (left-hand side under the desk or [CTRL]+[R])
    3. Set AFB lever to desired speed
    4. Release brakes (AFB will keep pressure in the loco cylinders until throttle is applied) and apply throttle
    While moving:
    1. Throttle to off
    2. AFB lever to max (140 in the 185, 160 for the 146)
    3. Turn on AFB main switch
    4. Reduce AFB lever to track speed
    5. Apply throttle

    Thank you both. I've always just used R & F without holding CTRL, so will give that a go. However I think my main issue was not doing it while having the throttle on 'off' if I recall correctly. If it's working for you both then there's no reason for why it shouldn't work for me once I apply the correct technique. Thank you both.

    One more thing with Chemnitz: it rains under the roof of Dresden station. I expect this dumb things from OMSI, not from the "ultimate train simulator"...

    Found the Sale offer really quite appealing.
    -Upgraded to TSW2 (German Edition) which came with a free Ruhr Sieg Nord on top for 18NZD(11EUR)
    -Tharandter Rampe for another 18NZD(11EUR) - My favourite so far!
    BR101 for 7NZD(4,50EUR)

    That's possibly a couple hundred hours of joy for the the equivalet of 3,6 local pints. Absolutely no reason to complain about!
