For the authentic experience you need to stand on something unsteady in front of a roaring fire, have a fan set to maximum behind you so that your front is roasting and your back is cold and have someone throw handfuls of coal dust in your face.



LOL Yeah I should imagine it's weird to say the least, I saw in the game settings that you can change the engine sway/rocking to the extent that you'd be hanging on for dear life set on maximum I'm good at wheel slip starting off from a station & managed to derail a train of ore wagons on one scenario I found out that the ore wagons in 1958 didn't come with any brakes or vacuum lines fitted to them whatsoever & the long train had a whiplash effect when the bunching up of wagons reached the back & derailed the back wagons I need to swot up on that brake van malarkey next time. I'm on coaling up & watering up the tender today plus turntable training I noticed my "fireman" was a women yesterday She was good shoveling with the spade though.
