WCML class 350 speed set?

[owman1]

There's a light on the panel called "speed set active" but I cant find anything on the desk to that effect. Does this have a speed set or is the light misplaced?

Look at the WCML Trent Valley route manual, page 16. Explains it there.

Manuals usually found at C/Progfiles86, Steam,Steamapps, Common, Railworks, Manuals EN (English).. If not C: then your drive letter.

Hope this helps.

Is it the low speed control? I've tried that and the light didn't illuminate.

Assuming you mean the button 2 to left of the big yellow "AWS Acknowledge" button on the dadshboard then yes, it is. Not used it before but just tried it and this is what happens.

Hover your mouse over it (changes to a hand icon) and left click. A little flap opens then closes and the yellow light comes on. Put the throttle to pos; 1 and it maintains a speed of 2 mph on the level or an up grade. It does not apply the brakes if going down hill. The driver has to do that.

I'll have a look at that again but there's a light on the warning light panel above the driver to the left that has a speed set active written on it. I was wondering if this is something the 350 can do because pressing the low speed control button doesn't cause this light to go on. If the class 350 had a speed set that would be pretty cool but I can't find anything on the panel that suggests it does. Might this be a case of dovetail re-using assets from a different unit?
