    No. This is brake cylinder pressure per right-hand gauge for C1 C2 not easing as fast as i expected.

    Schlins Beschling was second time that i had to add 40-50.% power to get moving out of station on down gradient.

    This time was .5% dwn.

    At 24-35% power would not budge.

    I am wrong:
    This feels like a programmer's coding bug for this sleak new OBB HST loco,
    nicht wahr ?
    n'est pas ?

    Without HUD, i need a scan pattern for each loco.

    Just wondering if the brakes were still releasing. But that may not be it.

    Just left a station on an up gradient of 20-30% so there seems to me to be an issue.

    There is already in one scenario ... and i am staying in Voralberg for now ..

    now i am thinking need to watch C1 c2 even if did not add in the train brake.

    Next i'll look to see if any rollng back if all neutral in acstation on a gradient.

    am not using a hud, s have a lot tonwatch n asvyet not familia route.

    It is just me missing that the R hand gauge was not yet zeros.

    up gradient, applied less braking.

    Down gradient, applied more braking.

    My bad.

    But good braking ;-)
