    So I have driven the class 801 lner quite a bit and feel comfortable driving it. I am now trying the 66 ews but up to now, all the routes (I'm playing the timetable games) are at night with the cab being pretty much black inside. I move around the cab and every now and then I find the cab lights, mostly by luck, and once switched on, everything is fine. Is there a button (I'm playing on a ps5) that I can press to switch on the cab lights as it takes me ages to find it.
    Thanks.

    No.
    What ever the Shift+ function is on the Controller to be fair. You need to go to the controller settings (in the options) and have a look if it does it via the LOVE+ option. not sure it does) otherwise its faffing around in the dar for the loco lights.

    The only other thing is to invest if you can in to a cheap USB Keyboard and plug it into the PS5. Itssupported. Once you do L on the keyboard is you cab light. H is the headlights.
    I highly recommend a keyboard.
    Hope this helps.

    It's especially important on the Class 66 because so many of the freight missions spawn at night on UK/German routes.

    I generally stand up from the seat and turn the torch on to find the can lights.

    Right directional button on PS controller

    I was thinking a missing "k" actually.
