Just walk up to one and press ENTER - the same as cars, tanks and locomotives.

And don't forget that if the cargo wagon is part of a train and the train is in manual mode you can also drive it manually from inside the wagon. The acceleration/breaking may be backwards depending on how the train is set up though.

Thank god, makes returning the rail-layer to a resuplly station that much easier :mrgreen:

It should be fairly obvious as well but you can hop in a train and put track in front of you while driving.. Laying track lines at 200+mph is pretty sweet :lol:

And in multiplayer you can all ride the same train, just board different wagons/locomotive :)

What happens if each player presses different directions, forwards backwards? Train derails, is torn apart? :D

I did not know that.
What do the attach-detach keys do if you ride the wagon?
Can you get a push and then disconnect the locomotive?
