Hello all.
I hope everyone is fine!
Please forgive me, but i haven't prepared a specific "speech" for this subject.
It just came to mind what would the experience be if we would have a specific 1st person view camera.
The idea is, that particular camera to be fixed to a defined height value (human wise) and adding some walking sounds (track bed), looped of course.
This way one can simulate, coupling/decoupling and other operations via the car operations menu.
Or this has been discussed before.
Thank you!

My proposal from 2014: https://www.elvastow...__1#entry152435
I always expecting this proposal to eventually provide a first person POV camera set for the front end brakeman, another for the rear end brakeman, and maybe a third for the conductor, to include dismounting from their riding location and returning, walking along the ROW, mounting/dismounting sidesill steps, mounting/climbing up & down/dismounting side ladders, mounting/climbing up & down/dismounting end ladders, and walking the running board.


Several additional threads on the subject are scattered about the site's forums.
