    Has anyone else noticed that in Frankfurt Fulda on the journey Pull! for the BR114 the brakes do not seem to work? You can more or less brake the train by setting Speed selector to ON and using the force selector, but the Train brake does not function. Brake functions perfectly in other journeys and in timetable mode. And before anyone asks, no mods and no brake programs set. Also tested on the test track and works as it should.

    The Brems Key is activated on the Steuerwagen thats why you can’t break

    Known bug- you have to run back to the cab car and turn the brake key off.

    Thanks for the info - seems less like a bug than another failure of DTG in provision of guidance.

    Well, it is a bug, in that no cab without a driver would have the brake key "On," ever. When that train failed and the driver got out, he would have shut down his cab completely.

    Maybe DTG built in a 'tea and biscuits' scenario, although being Germany maybe a kaffeeklasch:). Anyway, I thank you for the solution!

    Funny thing is this bug also still exists on DRA and was never fixed there (bug appears when you take over an AI Train)

    I'm just running a 114 service on Frankfurt - Fulda and even on 100% brake it only produced 4.5 bar, which is way to little braking force.

    What to do if the rear of the train has a 146 and not a Dosto cab car? I cannot find a brake key in the 146 cab.

    A strange coincidence but I've just played this scenario (although it crashed entering Hanau on PS5), had no brakes and looked on here for a solution, and here's your post!
    Thanks very much roysto25, DB628 and solicitr for the info, I'll switch that brake key off on my next attempt.
