+This Open Rails Train Operations window has a vertical view of the entire train:
+
+.. image:: images/TrainCarOperations-01.png
+  :align: center
+  :scale: 100%
+
+|
+
+This window shows the whole train in vertical mode. Any car can be selected by clicking on the Car ID. 
+Two arrows will then appear pointing to the selected car.
+
+By clicking on the selected CarId the "Train Operations Viewer" window will be displayed:
+
+.. image:: images/TrainOperationsViewer-02.png
+  :align: center
+  :scale: 100%
+
+|
+
+From the "Train Operations Viewer" window, we can set all the available systems, as in the “Car Operation menu”:
+
+- FrontBrakeHose
+- FrontAngleCock
+- CouplerFront
+- CouplerRear
+- RearAngleCock
+- RearBrakeHose
+- HandBrake
+- BleedOffValve
+- ToggleElectricTrainSupplyCable
+- ToggleMU
+- TogglePower
+- ToggleBatterySwitch
+
+This is where all the symbols are placed:
+
+.. image:: images/TrainOperationsViewer.png
+  :align: center
+  :scale: 100%
+
+|
+
+The red cross on the handbrake symbol (or another), indicates that it is not available.
+
+Any changes made in this window will also appear in the "Train Car Operations" window:
+
+.. image:: images/TrainOperationsViewer-03.png
+  :align: center
+  :scale: 100%
+
+|
+
+After a change in the braking system that keeps the train stopped, the CarID changes to a cyan colour. 
+In this way, it is easy for the user, to find out which car is stopping the train.
+
+A click on the right arrow hides all non-system brake symbols, inside the "Train Car Operations" window:

+
+While the "Train Operations Viewer" window is visible, we can modify the "Train Car Operations" window, 
+but if we open the "Train Operations" window <F9> and click on any CarID, the "Car Operation Menu" will 
+appear and it will point to the previously selected CarID in the "Train Operations Viewer" window.
+The "Car Operations Menu" is updated from the "Train Operations Viewer" window.
+A click on the CarID in the “Train Operations Viewer” will close the window.
+
+If the train is very long and not all the cars are displayed in the "Train Car Operations" window, we can scroll by clicking on the white down arrow (vertical scroll bar) at the bottom right.
+Once the required car has been selected, it will remain visible on the last row:
