You do know that you can now position the camera in multiple places in the cab using the Cab Camera BP? No need to buy a third party utility.

How does that work, anyway? I recall reading about it during the run-up campaign, but have never found any operating instructions. !**conf**!

When you make a Cab Camera blueprint in the Asset Editor, there is now a second section called "Timeline". You basically put the values (positions) of the third, fourth, fifth cameras (and so on) into this area, just as you would for your engineer and conductor positions. You can make cameras for anywhere in the cab - firemans chair, conductor chair, in the nose, out on the deck (if that is modeled in your cab view). You can even choose whether your view moves smoothly from one camera to the next, or snaps to it. You cycle between them with the right and left arrow keys, and all positions are interactive with whatever cab controls are present.

Thanks for the heads up on the Cab camera BP, I did not know that such a thing was possible. Since I already have donated to the camera cab Position tool I do want to let every one know it has been updated and works fine in 2014.

The tool is still useful for finding the position values.
