Hold the shift key to change movement speed.
Note that default movement speed can also be
set in the Game Settings Menu.
The left mouse button is also used to interact with
elements, such as opening doors and using in-cab

The scroll wheel is used to zoom in whilst operating
a loco or sitting in a passenger seat. When walking
or using one of the camera controls, it is used to
