| The red lever is the throttle which provides power to your locomotive. Currently it is set to zero, so no power is being supplied to the engine.

| The blue lever is the reverser. This determines your direction of travel. Currently it is set at 0%. Pushing this lever forward to 100% will set your direction of travel forwards and pulling it back to -100% will put you into reverse.
| The black lever is the locomotive brake. This determines the amount of braking that is applied to the locomotive. Pushing this lever forward will increase the braking force applied. Setting it to 100% will apply the emergency brakes, which will punish you in career scenarios.

To get moving, release the brakes by setting the brake handle to 0%, then set your reverser into forward (move the lever up), and gently apply power with the throttle by moving it slowly upwards. The first signal is clear for the next section, but there will be more information on the signalling before you reach the next signal. However before you start moving you will see a little more information about PZB90 Function (Cab Signalling), AFB Speed Control and SIFA Driver Vigilance.
