A couple of train loco questions.

[Veristek]

Hey.

I was wondering about the various locos in Trainz. I noticed some locos in Trainz 2006 has these ditch lights that flash in alternating patterns, but I'm not sure of the following:

1. How do I turn these strobing lights on? I press L for lights and the main light turns on, but not these ditch / strobing lights.

2. Which train locos in Trainz 2006 has functional ditch / strobing lights instead of "empty" non-functional ones?

Much obliged for any help. I apologize for all the questions I've been asking recently. I'm very new to Trainz, having bought it last Sunday, so I'm trying to learn the in's and out's of this awesome product. This is *the* train game I've always wanted all my life.

Trainz is what Railroad Tycoon 3 should have been!

Hi veristek,
I don't have any locos with flashing ditch lights, but If it is possible to turn them on or off it will be in the loco particulars panel. To find it bring out the rollingstock tab, the one at the bottom with the wheel, then click on the question mark, bottom right, then click on the loco. this should bring up a small window with the loco particulars and you should be able to see there if they are switchable. If anything in the panel is underlined it will have options.

Hope this helps,

The only 3 builtin locos that I know of that have ditch lights are the 3 SD70's by Phil_C. Their cabs have ditch light flasher switches that turn ON and OFF but the ditch lights don't flash. Ditch lights are on whenever the head lights are on.
