R62A only: PA system
To use the PA system, first make sure you are connected to Roblox VC and your microphone is unmuted.
Then, press the P.A. button in the GUI. It will begin flashing blue, indicating that the PA is now active. While the PA is active, anything you say will be broadcast to the entire train. To disable the PA system, press the P.A. button again. Once the button is no longer flashing blue, the PA is off.
