Hello, I've done a few trips in the EN57 now, I have a few questions..

- What does ripped switches mean? It says I have 2, and I don't think I did anything wrong
- What does the dispatcher mean when they say RELOG in the chat?
- On one experiment RJ I got a scenery with no dispatcher 2nd from the last scenery.  I pressed ZEW3 and got routed by the AI dispatcher to the last scenery. The dispatcher failed to load on the last one too so all I could do was quit the game. Is that OK? I tried / SWDR (question) but maybe somehow I'd gone offline without warning?
- Some other driver was walking on my track and I killed him. I sounded the horn! Their fault or mine? The chat found it amusing

In a failed attempt with the EU07, I was typing into chat but forgot to press enter first and these key entries managed to switch off the loco. I could not restart it - all I could do was ask the dispatcher to end my RJ. Is this ok or will he get annoyed with me?

Thanks so much

Thanks for the quick reply. Its quite daunting with the language barrier. I haved work for UK Railways for 30 years, and have read everything I can about PKP - I'm old enough to remember the old DOS Mechanik sim, and Maszyna coming out 

I'm not sure why I had any ripped switches as I followed all given signals. Never mind.

I wil have to book a trainer session - I can drive the EU07 - but ouch, when something shut down I struggled.

Unfortunately, official EU07 guide was not translated: https://wiki.td2.info.pl/index.php?title=Instrukcja_Train_Driver_2_(maszynista)
Try with Google Translate, it might be comprehensible enough.

Undoing "typing damage" is disfficult. What I do is I turn everything off using mouse looking at control panel and then start the locomotive from scratch:

• Both throttles to neutral: - and *
• Pantographs: o, p
• Main circuit breaker: shift + m
• Ublocking overload switches: n, shift + x, shift + c
• Volatage converter: x, give it some time to spin up
• Compressor: c
• Headlamps: i, u, y

Good luck!

Every scenery have sign what speed is in next scenery. Remember. Helper isn't all. You must watch rails. Type "wskaźnik w8" and you see this important sing. It warns you if speed in next scenery is lower than actual.

If you want to deepen some topics related with TD2, you can arrange a training with one of the trainers.

^ Yes that's very helpful info thankyou, I learnt my derail lesson. Now almost at 400km. It's a great game, apart from those scenario load stutters.

EU07 is an English design. You should be at home

Hi everyone. Could I please ask a couple of new questions?

1. What defines the vmax of the freight wagons - I have done some now and just asked for 100km/h timings (Sggmrss). Can someone say please, what is the vmax of each type of wagon in TD2?
2. So, if a ph says 2 minute stop. What do we do when we arrive early. Wait for correct departure time or just go after 2 minutes? I have seen different things expected from various DRs.
3. When changing cabs in loks, I don't know if it was a bug. I lost controls for the overload reset buttons and pantograph controls.. May be its because I needed to change (or lower both) the pantographs before changing cabs? Some cabs have a master switch some do not. If I close the master switch before changing cabs it shuts everything down. What's the right process?

Thank you again for help, and to the devs, other drivers and DRs. TD2 is fun
