- Timetable: set realistic speeds (25–35 mph in-town, 15–20 mph in yard), include dwell times at stations and industries.
- Braking: practice prototype-style braking—plan braking points early, use dynamic brakes or sandbox physics if enabled.
- Train makeup: keep consists short and within spur lengths—uncoupling and switching maneuvers should consider clearances.
