    Hi,
    What do I need to do to keep AFB active at the end of LZB?
    I acknowledge the LZB ende but when LZB turns off, I coast for a while as I fight with AZB to get it working again. I end up losing a lot of speed so there must be something I'm doing wrong.

    Having Switched AFB on before departing it will stay on.
    When you enter a LZB section it takes over and adjusts the AFB for the line speed.
    Leave the AFB leaver at Full position as you come out of LZB - the train will continue on full power
    You can then reduce the AFB to the required line speed

    If the AFB leaver is too low the train will only run up to the speed marker around the speedo
