    I think it might be right on the d-pad. Although I've not used it myself, in a while.

    Most yards I've been to in the UK are well lit at night. Not in the dtg world though.

    It's a shame it's not like derail valley where the player has a inventory, the high intensity lamp would come in handy in these situations.

    Really having headlamps wouldn't be much use on a shunting loco anyway as half the time you're coupled to something in the direction your going and so the lamp would do absolutley nothing but dazzle you from the reflection in the wagon infront. Additionally either the yard is going to be well lit, and or the shunter on the ground who is directing the shunting moves would use lamp signals to guide you on anyway (or later radio signals).
