    Hello everyone,

    just would like to have some advice because I tried several times the 13:15 service from Aachen to Köln with the BR 185.2 and I can't make it start, as if the brakes were still applied no matter what I do. Maybe there is something I do wrong but I don't see... Sometimes the train will start after 1 or 2 minutes keeping the traction, for no reason.

    its because releasing the brakes through the whole train takes a bit

    This is the 15:15 Achen>Koln (there is no 13:15 on the timetable) using the BR185.2

    Summer/rain:

    There's also a clip for summer/dry but XBL has decided to have a moment so I can't link that one just yet. I'm sue there's a 'proper' way to do it but all I did was put the train in notch 6 for a few seconds, cycled thru 7, 8 and 9 until there was movement and dropped to 7 to avoid any wheel slip. Excuse my random moving around the cab - I was looking for the wipers :cool:
