LEAD vs.TRAILING LOCOMOTIVES

'TU' LOCOMOTIVES CAN ONLY BE PLACED IN A TRAILING POSITION. LOCOMOTIVES NOT DESIGNATED AS 'TU'
LOCOMOTIVES IN YOUR ACTIVITY EDITOR, ARE THE LEAD LOCOMOTIVES.

If you attempt to run a TU locomotive as the lead loco, the simulation will not load properly. That's why it must
have a unique name in the activity editor (i.e., 'TU SP #7505') so you don't confuse 'TU' locos with 'lead' units in the locomotive
list.

TU locos work great as idle units on a siding etc., and will throttle up when coupled by a drivable unit.
If you attempt to run a TU locomotive as the lead loco, the simulation will not load properly. That's why they
have unique names like 'TU S.P. #7505' so you don't confuse them with other locos in the locomotive list of the activity editor.

Use 'TU' locomotives for Traffic Trains
