ASSIGNING A LOCO TO A CAB
(shortcut = PROG 2 )
This selection passes a loco or consist from one cab to another. This is especially
useful when the other operator is a novice or has a Basic Cab. The locomotive/
consist is passed to the assigned cab and the locomotive/consist controlled by the
other cab is passed back to the original cab. In effect the locomotives controlled by
the cabs are “swapped”. This way you will not accidentally ‘lose’ a locomotive in the
system.
ASSIGN THE LOCO
Enter the loco/consist number you want to assign to another cab, then press
ENTER. If you want to assign the loco you are currently running just push ENTER.

the capability of setting up consists.
