Abstract
A rail vehicle, such as a power car or a locomotive, has a drive and brakes, and a drive controller for controlling the drive and the brakes of the rail vehicle. An operating device for the drive controller has a device for modifying the operating mode of the rail vehicle. The operating device has an operating lever, which can be operated by an operator of the rail vehicle, for operating the drive controller. In order to simplify the operation of the rail vehicle, the function of the operating lever is dependent on the operating mode of the rail vehicle.
