I noted the mention that in conventional, 1 whistle press followed by 1 bell press will turn the marker lights on/off in conventional. Is this a new feature with PS3? I tried it with success on my PS3 Mikado. It is a nice feature to have but personally don't see it as something I'd likely use. I'd much rather have, if at all possible, a bell/whistle button combination to turn the smoke on/off in conventional.

that's why there is usually a on off switch on the bottom of the steam engine to shut off the smoke or turn it on, In conventional !

Yes, I'm aware of the function of the slide switch or potentiometer under the steamers but lets face it, I really don't want to have to shut down an engine, disconnect the tether or more often wireless drawbar (a PITA in and of itself), find a screw driver, etc just to turn the smoke off. All I'm saying is that a bell/whistle combo to turn it on/off would be a very nice and I think appreciated thing to have.
Yes, added feature. It is nice on the PR steam where the pots are under a cover on the tender top, or the diesels where the fan cover comes off. G
