    Hey folks,

    To celebrate the launch of the UP 119, the team have been working on a selection of fixes to the Smokebox line of DLC!

    CPR 4-4-0 No. 60 'Jupiter'
    * Prevent steam from escaping from the whistle after the long toot sound has finished.
    * Improved efficiency of the crosshead water pumps.
    * Pulling bar on AI loco now raises and lowers automatically whenever it is coupled to/uncoupled from the player-driven loco.
    * No sparks from wheelslip when the rail friction is "wet leaves".
    * Double-headed AI loco sets and releases its own handbrake in response to whistle signals from the player loco.
    * Corrected the timing of the exhaust chuffing when going backwards - this improves the sound and smoke/steam effects when backing up.
    * Reversed the direction of change of cab camera view when using the arrow keys.
    * Smoother feathering of safety valves.
    * Corrected the sound of the right-hand check valve clacking when backing up.
    * Stopped the wheels from rotating when positioned on a rotating turntable.


    AT&N Consolidation Class 280-157
    * The Advanced version now correctly tracks condensation during the entirety of every piston stroke.

    UP 884 FEF-3 Northern & UP 884 FEF-3 Overland
    * The Advanced version now correctly implements the way that the brake system automatically applies the brakes when the player fails to acknowledge the alerter within 6 seconds of the alert.

    * The Advanced version now correctly tracks condensation during the entirety of every piston stroke.
