Cab Displays - MTMS & MTCS Display

ZnD trains cabs give the driver a whole lot of useful information. Part of this information system are the MTMS and MTCS display.

There currently are two different cabs in ZnD. One is the BR 101s and the other the FLIRT 3s cab.
You can see the standard driver display configuration below. The MTCS display is red and the MTMS display is green.

MTCS Display

MTCS is short for "Minecraft Train Control System". This is where you can view most of the immediately relevant train stats (e.g. speed, tractive effort, status bulbs). This is also where upcoming MTCS speed limits are displayed.
