It requires some playing around with coordinates in the train.dat file. Use Train Editor
A.K.A Skinnylee2 (http://www.youtube.com/skinnylee2). I am also the fill-in guy for SubwayTrainOperator5, so I sometimes upload openBVE videos onto his channel.

This has been addressed on another thread, but for the sake of simplicity, open the train.dat file with notepad, find the "DriverCar" entry, and change the corresponding value from 0 to 1.
