    • Open the Driver List (bottom left of the screen) and then scroll through the list to find either:-
    • the loco name (e.g. SAR 830, SAR T 201) OR
    • the driver icon (named Driver 830, Driver 210 ) - this is a non-animated icon
    then click the drivers Eye icon Driver Eye.png to take control of the loco.
  4. Take a few moments to get your bearings. Click Gladstone Data (this link will open in this window) to show the location details and track plans for Gladstone. In each location details page:-
