Standard units: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internati ... m_of_Units

To perform a simulation, you can't use combination of mph, kmh etc. All units must be in one system.
Imperial units are useless for any kind of calculations/simulations.

The Engine/Wagon reference document issued with MSTS defined MaxVelocity as a default value of 100 mph not km/h that implied that the "standard" for Velocity was mph.

Nope. MSTS uses metric units internally too. Everywhere.
Mph is mentioned in a reference document, because it's "american" game after all.
So, MSTS converts these mph, hp etc to metric units too.

But your CE is NOT a simulation, it is an editor and a display of information. And it should DISPLAY the information as the USER has entered it.

It is a part of simulation software.

Could I have the display in HP please.

I appreciate that the calculations are all done in metric units, I am only asking for display.
