Auto Credit Based on Glassfort's Passengers 4
The job of a modern plane driver is to sit at the front and tell the aircrafts computer what the ATC said. Pilots on long haul flights often wonder what it would be like to actually fly a plane. Sometimes they will ask the flight computer but it never responds... probably because it is too busy flying the plane

@RailfanEthan OK... Sounds like a challenge. I'll make a start at the weekend (if possible, the height from the footplate to the bottom of the window would be useful to know)
@Glassfort If it's possible for you to do, I'd like the engineer's pose to be leaning out of the window, and the fireman just holding the shovel like this
@RailfanEthan OK, I've only seen an Alco S100 up close (there are not many US engines over here). As the S100 is a standard USRA type design I'll go by what I remember of that. I imagine the driver would have his hand on the regulator but stood to one side between the brake and the reversing gear whilst the fireman is stoking...
@Glassfort Well, I'd prefer it for right hand because my project is American, and I would appreciate a fireman. I just used that image as a reference, because there isn't much of a difference between the railroad gear in the countries
@RailfanEthan For a left hand or right hand drive engine.. most British engines were left hand drive up to about the 1930s. Engines built after that were right hand drive and many older ones were converted for mainline operation. (I'm assuming you want a British rail train pilot as per the photo) I guess US engines are right hand drive. I'll make a fireman as well

Simple enough. I'll try it. When do you want it? @RailfanEthan
Haha@DemonSniper8
Cool
Could you make an engineer like this? It's for an upcoming project
it is called a “Pilot”
Do you.... do you mean PILOT?
its not a pilot if he isn't controlling it
