I have been experimenting with consists in sidings.In activity editor I parked a Class50 Loco in a siding. I then drove the driver train to the siding and reversed into the siding to couple up. As the coupling took place the Class 50 loco came into life starting the engine and releasing smoke. Is this usual, can you always couple up to a "Dead" consist loco and "Bring it to life"?
Gadzooks, Kev, this is something I got to try with my BNSF+60 Mixed Consist, picking up another BNSF set at the rear ! That should strain a few couplings. O t t o
