Class 02 shunter help

Post by carldove1 »

I'm having trouble working out how to operate this shunter (BR Green) in TS2012 in the Setterfield Shunt scenario. There is no forward or reverse movement and power is always showing as zero amps. Have tried verifying the downloaded files and clearing blueprint cache. Thanks for any help.

Hi, and a warm welcome to the forums! :D

You need to use the gears on this shunter (just as you would on a car) in conjunction with the reverser and regulator.

Hi carldove1,

Unfortunately in this Loco's Manual it makes no mention of having to 'select' a Gear to move the loco (as Ash has already stated).

Use Key "E" to move the Gears Up and "Shift key + key E" to move down the Gears. :wink:

Thanks for the key info Rob! I couldn't recall which one worked the gears and can't check at the moment.

No Problem Ash, I just thought as he is newcomer it might be helpful.

Must admit I had to do a Forum "Search" for it, as I had forgotten (thought it was Key G until I checked :oops: ).

Just to add to that, anyone with a "RailDriver", the Range button is the gear change.

Ahhh!

That's how you do it. I'd been wondering... Truly this a wondrous website...

As another lately-arrived Daft Wally, I'd like to thank all those who help us baffled beginners.
