The switcher have delivered the train to platform, so after the switchman is back and a train is secured, it uncouples.

Tuning Engine's settings and attaching missed steam-effects, I've tested SO17-508, that is already known to You, at hilly profile of 120a route.

Our testing-train coasts at permitted 40kph rising-up steams and passing East neck of Rakos station, preparing to climb uphill towards Rakosegy.

Why don't you use hungarian rolling stock? The russian cars and engines are very weird on a hungarian route, not to mention the russian rolling stock has a wider gauge...
Hungarian rolling stock can be downloaded in different packages (ActHu) by kind from here.
However, the textures use the old engine numbering method (hungarian railways uses the UIC method from 2011).
This route uses electric locos, mostly V43 for ICs, commuter trains are usually 4-section Stadler Flirts or V43+6xBhv "Fecske" (not included in ActHu pack).

However I recommend, use MSTS Alföld Route instead of 120a, that's much larger and detailed and included a lot of beautiful hungarian main- and branchline.
