Brake function

<< < (2/2)

KPack:
Load/momentum has a large effect on the brake action.  The higher the load, the longer it will take to brake.  And you'll need to hold the brake button down....as soon as you release it at all brake action ceases.

ON28:
I cap some locos at 75% of top speed account ham-handed operators, but also enhances braking action, at least to me.

snowdog:
Hey all,

I've been in RP for a while, I'm trying to operate more realistically. Case in point, when rolling down a grade, dynamic brakes does not function as dynamic brakes (yes, I'm aware it's a sound). So I thought I'd add braking to the lead locomotive to simulate braking action but that does not work. Also, the brakes do not hold when accelerating from a stop (similar to the load function). There is the premise to my question. Thanks for the inputs.
