    OK, DUMB question I know.

    Reading the manual on how to turn on engine & car lights.

    Where is the location of this tab/folder in OR?

    Hit F1 key when in the sim and it brings up the key-chart.

    But that aside, you turn on the lights exactly the same way as in MSTS - the 'H' key.
    As for the engine.....huh?

      Interior lights in the cab are the "L" key.

        I found it. It's under "options" on the main start up screen. Feel a bit stupid I missed that.

        I still have a lighting problem. My player train has a 3DTrains FT-A as the lead unit. The mars light now works, but the lower headlight does not come on when I hit "H".

        I don't understand lighting enough to modify the engine file if that's the problem. I read in the operations manual that lighting is very much an untamed beast in OR and that I may have to just deal till that bug is fixed.
