Thanks but I lied im still playing this route cause I love it. Just give me self a heart attack when im using them brakes.
Would someone be able to look into this Ben? Really love the extra paths but no loading times makes writing scenarios difficult.
Ahh thanks for the info, for every day I'd be out on an air braked train I'd have done six on vacuum and sadly it's been two years since I was on the footplate (due to life getting in the way) though that should be changing soon I'd forgot that it's not the same as the speedup, it would be one of them things used maybe once or twice a day if that, and it was usually just because I'd have overdone it slightly, joys of pres and 8 carriage trains really. I still maintain that direct vac is the future Due to the crazy heat last week (it hit 43c in my "man cave") so I didn't get anywhere near as much running as I'd intended to but did notice improvements in the braking/releasing, mostly with the HAA's and I think that was because I just had to remind myself that it's a long rake and takes a while for the brakes to come on at the back and longer to come off then drive accordingly and it seemed to work. I'm using a keyboard so will just be extra careful when releasing to not overcharge. Thanks again
PS5. Pretty smooth runs with the class 86 other than some blurry textures but I can't complete a single timetable service with the class 20. I've tried 4 times now and just when I'm about to reach the end of the service the game crashes
I seem to be having a repeat issue at the likes of WBQ and WNW where by if you are at the location for more than a couple of minutes fps drops from 60fps down to 15-20fps and does not improve unless you save, exit to main menu and then load the save at which point fps is back up where it should be. I think it’s possibly relates to when an AI service arrives at the location but it isn’t just a usual stutter or fps drop for a few seconds it becomes permanent until the save and reload. I’ve just done the Thunderbird scenario and had to save and reload three times (WBQ, WNW and then WBQ again) due to the fps dropping to 15-20fps.

Ok so when you start a service with the 47 most of the time the brakes are set to passenger air brake. Now would I have to change accordingly to what actually driving. OldVern hi mate would I have to change the brakes myself.
I hope the brakes are sorted soon, as the 47/3 and 20s brakes have the consistency of Wet Pasta when on freight trains. I've spadded several times as a result. PS5
For freight trains with a maximum speed of 60 mph or below, that switch would be set to Goods for the appropriate brake type. Trains with a maximum speed above 60 mph would use Passenger. In practice I believe that means only the container freight services on the Just Trains routes use Passenger, and all other freights use Goods.
Speaking of, I’ve tried looking, but I haven’t managed to find a G/P-selector on the freight cars like I’m used to from Germany/continental Europe. Were British cars locked to either G or P without possible adjustment?
