Reply to ""Am I clear to the station?""

If you're moving, and you press the crew-talk (#2) you should hear that.  If you press AUX1 before #2, you'll hear the alternate one that says you aren't clear.  When you're looking at the CAB2, you'll note that the tower-com and crew-talk keys go dark when you press AUX1, that signifies that you'll get a negative response to a query.

I have not found any combination of key presses, engine moving vs. stationary, and run time that will get the engineer to ask, "Am I clear to the station?" I have only heard it when using iCab and pressing the CrewTalk dialogue button labeled Clear Inbound.

By the way, this is an engine moving query, i.e., the train is moving and the engineer wants to know if he can pull into the station; and, as far as I know from using iCab, this query has only an affirmative response.

Also, in my experience with early and recent Legacy, AUX1 makes CrewTalk and TowerCom negative only when the engine is stationary.
