Below you can find a recent list with keys and their actions. (At this moment only the controls that are working)
In Beta 3.9 you can change the keyboard controls. You can not change everything like the move (free-camera) controls. You can only change the keys that are used for controlling the train. If you give actions a key which already has an action, but can not be changed, thatwill cause two commands by pressing on only one key, and that's annoying.

Numpad controls (Train driver views)

Only in Beta 3.9.
With the numpad controls below you can turn the train driver view to different directions, so you don't have to use the mouse. If you want to switch from train, you can click on the cabin of the train which you want to drive. You can also switch from cabin by pressing [Ctrl + ↑] or [Ctrl + ↓].
