As you know, I am a beginner for open rails. Basically, I do not know where I can switch the tracks. Is there a track switcher window that can be enabled like in MSTS? Or do I have to do it a different way? Thanks!
How do I switch tracks in Open Rails?

Keyboard commands should be the same.
F8 for the switch position window, G to throw the switch ahead, Shift-G to throw the switch behind you.

About time to start reading the Open Rails manual, just a little bit each day, or searching for an answer. Chip away at it...like we all do.Cheers, Gerry

I'm just a beginner, but I've learned that putting the mouse pointer in the center of the track between the points of your desired turnout, then hitting alt-left-click, will throw that turnout. But you have to get it in a view where you're close enough to be able to see what's going on.Comment

That's another method that works. I've had pretty good luck with it, even from a couple hundred meters awayI'm just a beginner, but I've learned that putting the mouse pointer in the center of the track between the points of your desired turnout, then hitting alt-left-click, will throw that turnout.
