    Dear all,
    Am new here, figured out most things via manuals and YT, one thing I couldn’t figure out is how to setup MU operations where you’ve got 2 locos setup as part of the sims consist for a scenario or scenario planner. Does this mean when two locos are setup as part of the sims consist, they are assumed to be multiple units and work together? Any thoughts or pointers please?

    Any locos within the same consist (Coupled together) will operate in multiple automatically. This could be right next to each other or the other end of the train.

    Ty, to be pedantic, the trailing loco in my forward consist appears to not be working off of the lead locomotive, but the sim actually ensures it does? I thought I’d be able to see evidence of the trailing loco working too like the speedometer showing a similar speed to that of the lead loco. Thanks for taking the time to read.

    In the Scenario Editor double click on the trailing loco and tick the box to make it a dead loco
    Then try the scenario again and see what the power output is like - it should be less
