    I wasn't too familiar with German rail, but I have been enjoying the DB content in TSW/TSW2. While trying to learn some realistic practices on the DB, I noticed that engineers on passenger services usually watch the platform from the sliding windows while starting the train with the shunt controls.

    DTG has actually modeled the controls by the window, and I figured out how to use them...however one thing that's confusing is I can't get them to work with AFB enabled in the BR146/182.

    Am I doing something wrong here?

    I don't know how about real life is but in TSW AFB and Shunting command won't work in combo. To use Shunting lever you must to switch off the AFB (and move throttle to Idle or Min).
