With and without a driver

Is there a way to eliminate the driver in Dogmouse's S2 locomotives? I'd like to offer the choice of having or not having a driver in my next Canadian Pacific repaints. I really wish there was a way, I hate seeing secondary locomotives dragged along with a useless driver inside the cab. Thanks!

The driver is in the engine's blueprint, if I recall correctly.

Yes, the driver is usually a "child" entry in the engine blueprint.
You can edit the .bin file to remove the driver entry which appears under " Children" in the .bin file.
Or you can use the asset editor in TS Tools to list the child entries for your chosen loco and remove the one called " Driver".
Save the edited file with a new name by adding something like _ND ( No driver) to the name.

Jmls48 Thanks to you, I'm so glad to know about this trick for removing the conductor via TS Tools, so much easier than editing the .Bin file directly!

Glad it helped.
We should all thank Mike Simpson for giving us TS Tools.
