Railroader MU & Cut Out | Using Multiple Locomotives Together | Double Header

You and your fellow railroaders are the lifeblood of your railroad, just like it is the lifeblood of the communities it serves. Switch cars at industries. Keep people moving while running local passenger trains. Run trains with a purpose in transition era Appalachia – in Railroader!

UPDATE: Recent patches have changed MU behavior so some of this video may now be out of date
I did some more testing
- Locomotives can go anywhere in the consist and be MU'd
- Direction doesn't matter. It will figure it out based on lead locomotive

Looking pretty good. I'm getting the feeling this is going to be like Derail Valley in that it's "gamified" in some places (see: being able to MU steam locos with one person), and in this case focuses more on railroad ops than the actual driving...Which is fine with me, I love complicated locos but I gotta say tending a firebox isn't the most fun thing in a game!

Now knowing this the Ten and Pacific are going to be a dangerous setup

[TwentyTwo]

thank you so much! the solution was staring right at my face and I didnt notice lol

[russdemocker]

for people who are having issues somewhat the mu at least for me has to be engines right behind another if your pulling cars from lets say interchange if your pulling cars you bought or if your just starting the beginning coach caboose and hopper you can place an engine at the rear and it will work but if your pulling cars from interchange it wont work

That's nice and simple, I did wonder if you'd have to select the MU button on both locos or just the trailing one, so that's a massive help, thanks.

Thank you for making this video. I was SURE i could figure this out on my own, surely it couldn't be that hard, right? Well, let's just say i would have saved a lot of time if i just watched your video instead 😆

this looks like it is a really cool train game

[roxbird]

Thanks for the info! Do you know if this works the same way if you're using a pusher on the rear instead of all the engines being coupled together on the front?

I have issues with selecting other engines to run AI, especially yard. When I take it out of manual to AI moving in yard, it applies brakes instantly. I can’t take the brakes off in AI, but manual I have no issues. What could be causing that? It doesn’t matter which engine I select. They just apply brakes and won’t move unless I have manual control selected

[josephanderson]

Do you have to have both locomotives back to back for the MU to work, or can the second loco be in the middle of back of the train and MU will still work?

Early access comes out on the 15th? Am I remembering correctly

[noahabdelhamid]

Does this apply to diesel locomotives as well?

[Ultionem_Dorus]

Does this work if one of the locomotives is backwards?
