Set throttle to equal speed of loco ahead

Set throttle to equal speed of loco ahead

Driver command that sets the DCC throttle setting of this loco to equal the speed of the loco ahead.
The command remains effective until this loco reaches a target trackmark.
The intended application of the command is to control uncoupled rear banker engines while assiting a train up a grade. The target trackmark is situated at the top of the grade.
There are 2 menu items: the first to select the target trackmark and the second to select the multiplying factor in the throttle setting.
Different locos travel at different speeds for the same throttle setting, so the banker throttle is derived by applying a multiplying factor to the throttle setting of the train engine.
The identity of the current target trackmark is given at the bottom of each menu.
