Forgot the Steam engine water and fire %

Unread postby CSX2057 » Tue Jul 29, 2014 12:29 pm

Since I haven't been back on Railworks for a while. What was the water and the fire percentage that we discussed before for steam engines like the big boy, challenger, Gs-4, berkshire, sp&s etc etc? I completely forgot.

First let me ask do you know how to use the search function? This has been answered many times. A good place with manual firing is 70-75% on the fire and 90-95% on the water.

Reastically you want to keep the water glass 3/4 of a glass full.
