The "You just ran a red" is a bug when running LHF - the game trips the signal as soon as the rear of your loco (which is acting as the front when LHF) as soon as it passes the tower, but the game probably checks the short head for the "you ran a red" warning. This happens in other routes too.
Great video, Spur. TY for enduring the Long Hood for us. Hey did you ever nail down the sound mod you had for the rail cars external? I sure would like to have that as it sounds awesome on your videos. TY.
I think Otto automatically assumes you are running short hood forward hence him not giving you a light at the beginning of the video. To combat that I think you can set the reverser to the direction of travel you want to go then call Otto and he will give you a light even if you are running long hood forward.
That totally makes sense. I guess he has to figure out what way you are heading for sure before giving that light. I'll test out the reverser sometime. Thanks for the tip!
I think it's possible to disable the "conductor" from options, then you should be able to jump in the front conductor seat and have good rearward view to avoid having to move viewpoint always when switching sides Edit: in train menu, at the bottom, there's crew avatars where you can disable rent-a-conductor. Then you can jump between sides and have better view

That must be relatively new. I ran lhf on a local, in a vid, a few years ago and never saw that issue. Thanks for the heads up!
@@spurgaming5400 Maybe it isn't consistent throughout the map(s), but I've definitely encountered this in the past.
Yeah I’ve had the same problem going long hood forward on the Waycross sub
Yo spur! It’s your 200th subscriber. How’s life going?
Hi #200! Busy, but good!
@ good to hear!
Happy New Year my friend!
Happy New Year to you as well friend and thank you! I appreciate it!
NS had some SD50s or 60s that definitely had controls only on the conductor side. whole setup was awkward to run..
I was thinking I saw a pic somewhere of an NS SD60 with it on the conductor's side. It looked really odd for sure.
Hey, your loco is backwards.
I'll show myself out
LOL thanks for that heads up!
I need that horn lol
The P5 is not included with the base game???

I tried looking for it this eve and wasn't able to find anything. I'm gonna message someone and see if they have an idea who did it.
@@spurgaming5400 That's great Spur. Appreciate the effort. If Run8 staff are listening, get this on the next patch, please!

Excellent video. I could listen to a p5 all day.
That P5 is pretty sweet!
