Appearance
Firing up a steam engine from scratch is very costly and can take a very long time. In Derail Valley, the startup process is sped up when the vehicle is stationary, simulating it being done in the most fuel efficient manner, until the boiler pressure reaches about 80% of its maximum capacity. The time scaling is there to drastically reduce waiting, but can be adjusted by a difficulty setting titled Steam Startup.
