I don't think there is one however I'm sure you know it can be controlled by M/shift-M.

I just ran her through her paces with eight coaches on HSC and got it to haul and even 30-35 mph up the 1.2% grade and when I got to the .4% she ran right up to 60mph. I try to use about 85% on the Johnson bar and around 30% on the throttle using the same on the fire and water as you do. Gotta have patience on the speed changes on the grades.

While there is a keyboard control.

It's on the floor next to the Engineer's seat.

I see it now; when I push it down, does that open or close it? I only ask because it is different from the damper on the G-trax berkshire.


I believe that Pushing it down Opens it and Pulling up Closes.

You can check for sure by going to the F5 menu. It tells you whether it is opened or closed. Or if you are looking at it it should move back and forth if you hit the M and shift M keys.
