ASSIGNING A LOCO TO A CAB
(shortcut = PROG 2 )
This selection passes a loco 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.

capability of setting up consists.
