They said they’re working on it, but just like in real-Life only one 218 can Push the cab car (Or so I hope)

5. The cab car will be compatible with the Railpool Vectron, DB BR111 and DB BR218 on release, more are probably compatible but I have not tested these yet. This compatibility is at a "non-Expert level" which means that you can do the normal stuff like control doors, traction, train lights, pantograph, main circuit breaker and train line (when applicable) but some of the special indicators or switches that require jumper cable signals will not function since the jumper cable signals required for these only exist on the Expert vehicles. Mixing the cab car with old IC coaches is not supported.

6. The BR101 Expert is compatible with most other locomotives (at least the Railpool Vectron, old DB BR101, DB BR111, DB BR218 etc). However, the coaches may need to be broken up by a non Expert coach at release due to the locomotive not detecting all older locos (some have incompatible setup that makes them invisible). This will hopefully be fixed in the upcoming patch. The compatibility is at a "non-Expert level". For example the MU control (like ZDS or ZMS) pantograph selection will not work on the rear-non Expert locomotives (since they lack this capability). Certain MU indicators in the cab of the BR101 Expert will be missing (again since the older locos do not have this data).
