'The Story of Forest Rail' problem.

I am trying the scenario: '2. First time on duty'. In this, the little railbus engine goes wrong and you are asked to 'restart the engine'. I have looked at the manual, and the railbus in this scenario doesn't have an engine start button. I find that if I save the scenario when the engine has stopped, when I load it back in the engine is running!
Has anyone else noticed this? Is it a peculiarity of the scenario?
Thanks for any help.
Stuart.

I used the F4 HUD as the key "Z" didn't work for that. I just hit the green key symbol to turn the engine back on. I usually drive with the F3 HUD but switched to the F4 one to do this operation.

Many thanks, Matt. That's sorted it! I've never had to use that small green key before!

Just to add to this - I also had this issue but I thought about it and was able to start the train from the cab.

Hint: How do you start a car?*

*Well, one of this "vintage" anyway.

Is there a starting handle somewhere?!
