Does the Flying Scotsman and any of the mk1 passenger coaches have air brakes? I'm wanting to create a livery for a support coach using a BSO for use with Flying Scotsman and a class 66 as a formation on their own (Something like my image below taken yesterday). Is this possible or are the FS and mk1 coaches Vacuum only?
Have you tried it? I think you could have Scotsman used as a brake translator between the Shed and FS
Just tried it and the 66 gets it going but once the power controller is back to 0 everything comes to a stand within about 10-20 yards.
I seem to remember having to open the small injector on the Scotsman to tow it with the 66 or the large injector maybe. But this results in the 66 doing all the braking. Which shouldn't be that bad if your only towing the Scot and one coach.
That's it..... You've sorted it. I opened small and large injectors and once the brakes are released on the 66 if you look back in the FS cab you see the vacuum brakes are also released. Then the train rolls along as it should without power applied. That's great..... Thanks.
Took a break from creating my Tinsley 47s and did the current FS support coach 99953 yesterday evening. The nearest we have in game is the mk1 5 bay BSO so it will have to do (The real coach is a mk1 4 bay BSK). I've marked it up as per the real coach and created my custom formation for use as and when I want it.
