Could somebody help me and explain the throttle / braking controls of a Class 166?
Where could I find a driving manual?
Reason I ask is that on the HUD it shows minus 10% however there is forward power on. The throttle control also shows off - I think - however I am not sure what mark on the throttle stick you use to calibrate?
Any help appreciated.

Re: Driving a Class 166
There isn't a driving manual for the 166. There is only a short section on it in the GWML manual @ C/Prog86/steam/steamapps/common/railworks/manuals/EN (English).
The 166 has always had this problem with the combine brake/throttle lever. Engine idle position is at minus 30% then acceleration begins at minus 10%, plus 10% and so on. Braking starts below the minus 30% setting.
Hope this helps.
