brian.marshall92 Posted June 10 Posted June 10 Hello. I am new to Sim Rail which is excellent. It is a big step up on other train simulators and much more convincing. I have been driving the Dragon 2 and I need to couple to a train and then change cabs. I have not been able to find the key binds for these. Can anyone tell me how I couple and how I then change cabs? Many thanks.
azzorekk Posted June 10 Posted June 10 You need to get off from the driver seat by pressing E. Then turn around. On the center of the back wall there will be a door to the engine room. Click on the red handle on it. There should be an option to change cabs.
brian.marshall92 Posted June 10 Author Posted June 10 Many thanks for this quick and helpful response. I have now been able to shut down one cab and move to the other one and activate it and set it up. But I still do not know how to couple to my wagons. How can I do that?
jeroezie Posted June 10 Posted June 10 You need to leave the loco and walk towards the wagons. Hover with the mouse over the couplings until the couplelings ligt up and then you can click on then, then a menu shows up for (un)coupling. It can sometimes be tricky for the couplings to ligt up since the buffers are in the way.
jmluengor Posted June 11 Posted June 11 Since each vehicle has its own unique characteristics, here's some information on how to switch cabs and control the vehicle from the second cab. https://wiki.simrail.eu/Vehicles/Poland/Overview
brian.marshall92 Posted 19 hours ago Author Posted 19 hours ago Many thanks, very helpful. I have changed cabs OK but tonight when I did, I got a message saying EVC not connected, and I could not resolve this. Any suggestions?

On the rear panel of the ED250 and ET25 cabin, bottom row of buttons on the electrical panel (I think).
jeroezie Posted 13 hours ago Posted 13 hours ago The ertms/etcs in the game is buggy. You can manually change to level shp instead of ertms level 1 or 2. Or turn off the ECV as jmluengor suggested.
