Simple guard mode mod for TSW5 for the 375 (blue & white), ECW/LBN 377, 387, 483, 484 and 700.
Big thanks to Profile picture of mjkcp mjkcp for teaching me how to create them and helping me!

IMPORTANT NOTE:
For the electrostars, you have to first:

  • Head to the front cab where the AI driver is
  • Remove their master key (reverser into off first)
  • Head to the cab you wish to guard from
  • Insert master key
  • Move reverse to neutral
    As far as I am aware, this is the only way.

Known issues:

  • All 387s run with their pantograph up, I have no clue why this happens, or how to fix it, sorry!

08/02/2025 Update:

  • Updated all the trains to allow you to enter guard mode mid-route

I don't think I own any of them

Freight doesn't have passengers so there would be no use for a conductor mode. Also, US doesn't have guards. We have conductors.

plus the Game only allows Guardmode for passenger services anyway

only thing i can think of is check that it's loading before any other mods about it?

700 and leccystars work great, thanks! But neither IOW mod working great for me. 483 just spontaneously departs before you've buzzed, and 484 doesn't work at all, not even showing in the main menu.

interesting, have you checked that it's loading before any other mods? (i believe it may be incompatible with the 484 enhancement pack) you could try putting a few ! before the mod name to make sure it loads first

The Electrostars do not seem to be working, I can't get the doors open. The 700 is brilliant though!

Did you follow the instructions? (the electrostars are different - the AI driver cab needs to be off, and the cab you want to guard from needs to be on with the reverser in neutral for it to release the doors)

Oh yes I have just seen that! Thanks

Is it possible to make this work for the 377/2 (or even the /7 by AdTranz)?

I don't have WCMLS (i think that's the one your referring to), but if I do get it, I will be sure to add it :)
