Whilst in Surveyor, QuickDrive can be accessed by clicking on the QuickDrive icon or with Ctrl+F2. QuickDrive can also be accessed directly from the routes menu by selecting a route and clicking the QuickDrive button on the right hand side of the routes menu. Using QuickDrive, you can operate trains on a route without any preparation in Surveyor. After starting a Driver session with QuickDrive, you will see the QuickDrive settings window.
