I use the cruise control whenever I have it (haven't done EN57 runs in a while). The CC on EN71 does a really good job. I turn on CC, set the speed to speed limit and then I wait until departure time to punch power. CC pulls off on 30% but ramps up at approx. 15 kph. Also for CC the braking distances is approximately speed/2*10 + 50 meters. You do need to set power output on the CC unit to 100%.

Would be great if you can turn it on in the train. Also, pretty sure that flashlight is only given to dispatchers.

I suggest that train drivers/Engineers should get a flashlight too.

Interested as to why none of the Warsaw related stations are in there?

Sounds like we can simulate drivers pulling out personal cell phones. I think most dispatcher post already has a phone on the desk already so this would give them some functionality.

This is a question: Can I switch train platform at the last minute? Like if a train goes to platform 1 track 4 at Zawierce, can it go to a different platform? Also at Zawierce, is it ok to sent trains meant for line 1 towards lazy onto 158 or 160 or vice versa? What about sending 160 train towards 158 or vice versa?

subsignal will undermine that.

Run8 anyone?

I have yet to drive from Katowice to Warsaw W. on MP the whole way. I never get a long enough block of time to do it, even when I am driving the Pendolino.

Personally, I do that only to freight trains, passenger trains would have to stop until scheduled departure anyways. Even when I hold freight trains, I hold them so that they are the correct order, so as soon as the train before the freight in question clears, the freight is good to go ASAP. If it is a player controlled train, I would inform them about the stop and given them a chance to proceed as is.

What are the top speeds of every locomotives in the game? Interested because I want to make a 160kph passenger service scenario.

just to add another option: Train driver/engineer should have {train number} radio check

I think the EMU E brake keyboard hotkey is binded to the assistant engineer seat one and not the engineer one

I noticed when I drive EP08 from SG to WP that pantograph seems to rise at every neutral zone. It would rise up when there are two wires but drop back to the correct height when there is only one wire.

Why bother? When in doubt, just roll until there is about a few meters left of the platform and slam full service brake, staying in the cab the whole time. Also, you could ask the conductor to watch how far to go for you IRL, so jumping to rear camera would be like that.
