Mine has taillights: There is a button called "Marker lights" in the cab car on the overhead panel which will turn them on. Unfortunately, they are not on by default.
I saw that from the cab car from right above when looking forward there’s a marker lights button and to the right there’s a circuit breaker that turns on marker lights and the one from above from when looking out the cab turns on the marker lights.
I still can’t get those marker lights to work. Tried restarting the cab car, nothing. Even if the button and breaker is on they never turn on. Anybody have any idea what it is?
ATS and PTC are usually on, but you have to turn on TMS... and I believe TMS handles alerter things in this case... I know this since I have recently been playing a lot of US diesel, which meant I had to refresh my memory as to what safety systems are implemented in each loco/cab car
I never touched the safety systems on the Antelope Valley Line (or Sand Patch Grade or Sherman Hill). Interesting to know that AVL also has some safety systems!
you can turn on ATS, PTC and TMS, but the only one that really does anything is TMS, which is do alerter beeps... other stuff is mostly cosmetic, for the sake of getting extra points for having them "on"... this is true on both MetroLink routes and is the only real minus on those for me... since nothing really enforcing speed limits or yellow signals like ATC/ACSES combo does on MBTA/Amtrak/MTA routes... you only get penalty brakes if you fail to acknowledge alerter/TMS beeps, which arent many so the real challenge in both AVL and SBL (is that the correct acronym for San Bernardino Route?) is maintaining speed / keeping to speed limit, optional horn sequencing (or you can just goof off there lol), and if you are into that, playing with dynamic braking shenanigans (useful for keeping speed downhill without using automatic air brakes or independent brake), using appropriate notches etc ... fun stuff tho (to be sure, I would love to try my hand at Siemens Charger, a kind of competitor /125mph/ with F125 among modern speedy, passenger-oriented diesels; Siemens Charger, I believe, is more oriented towards intercity and long-distance services)
