Most motorized rail vehicles use electricity to run some of their systems. Some generate electricity onboard, while others draw it from external infrastructure, such as overhead wires. Even on steam locomotives, electricity is generated by a steam-powered dynamo.
Before setting the vehicle in motion, ensure that all of its electrical systems are enabled, either via breakers or valves.
