<p>you can control the number of Locomotives that will be assigned to this Train,
and optionally, the engine's model and road name. If you want two or more engines
assigned to a Train, the engines must be part of a Consist. If you select "Auto",
the program will calculate the number of engines required for this Train based on
the weight of the Train, the track grade, and the horsepower of the engines.</p>
<p>You can also require a Caboose or Car with FRED (Flashing Rear End Device) as
the last Car in the Train, and you can optionally specify the road name for the
Caboose or Car with FRED. If you leave the road name blank, the program will try
and find a Caboose with the same road name as the engine.</p>

<p><span class="textbutton">Reset Train</span> allows you to
remove Locomotives and Cars that have been assigned to a Train. This may be useful when you
want to try various build options and don't what to physically move locomotive and cars on
the layout.</p>
<p>Press <span class="textbutton">Save Train</span> to save your Train.
The program will create a file (OperationsTrainRoster.xml) in your JMRI directory in
