Yes I'm convinced that the lenght of the consist doesn't matter because each same wagon have the same braking force capacity depending of the load...
Thanks for the help I found a web site where it is also described and find this very useful also: http://2d53.co.uk/Headcode/headcodeC.htm....
[ATTACH] To add like DominusEdwardius said I give up with the calculation for the TEA tare half weight (when heavy loaded) checking against the E1...
Not exactly the gross load weight (GLW) is to add the tare weight plus the carriying capacity weight. What is shown at the wagon plate is the...
Ok for that all. But by manual calculating against the E1 table give me more fun to play with. And in the case of the Class 40 even the wagons are...
Ok thats interesting. But am I wrong by manual calculating the max speed when I drive a Class 40 which is a loco used in the 1960 years when...
Humm but I doubt for my example with the Class 40 loco the computers was alive on the market. And what computers is it talked about ? Those in...
Hello, I wished to come back about how to calculate the permitted speed in relation of the load and brake force available. Reading this document...
Ah ?! I Don't knew that. Thank you for this accuracy. I will follow your process as close as possible. So to resume the process, before to switch...
Thank you for the comment and your response. I will follow your process. Cheers Gerard
Ok yes I rod the manual (thanks you for your remind) but what I'm don't sure is before to switch the brake mode is it needed to uncouple the loco...

Thank you for your response. That give me a first approach how to run with the Class 40 coupled with gaz Oil wagons fully loaded. About 1500 Tons...
Thank you very much for this technical document very instructive. On the first look, took me a little unuderstood but reading briefly I saw a...
Yeah may be but on the NTP route some speed limits are too 80 Mph; I only just wish to know is if as Dmitri and Matt said yesterday in the Stream...
Huh ?
As I voted for Others things, I wish to get the avalaibility to move the driver point of view to the back like to simulate the Moving back of the...
Hello, To try to match as real things as possible, I wished to know if there was a max speed limit on the Class 40 loco when pulling Gaz Oil...
Thank you very much for the link. Very useful. Be sure I done a search through the web but don't get really what I wished to know. Your link...
Ya you are right not very intuitive and plus I was thinking by clicking on the brush pink icon that change the skin or the model; but no and I...

Oh ? I Don't knew I must press the Q letter to switch between that with discs and the other with normal lights. I was thinking clicking on the...
I come back about the issue to switch between Class 40 with normal lights and the other model with discs lights. On NTP route this Class 40 is the...
Thank you very much for the info and advice. Very helpful. Much appreciated Cheers Gerard
Humm yes that is not another skin really but how to switch to the option light discs if it is possible please?
Hello, I run on NTP currently Sometime when selecting the Class 40 loco it appears with either front disks lights codes and others times it is...
Ah yeah it seems to had saw Matt doing Something on the BG coaches (postal mail/news paper) on each coaches to be ready coupled with a loco on (I...
Yes on all the coaches the ident is very clear. But when looking at the VAN it is no so much clear and nothing to do with the wear thing Th...
Thanks with pictures this is much recognizable. As Jez said the Vacuum hose is ribbed and larger diameter than the air hose smaller and smooth...
Oh sorry I Don't knew. Thanks for the accuracy.
Humm They have probably took the earlier era than TOPS reform. ;-) Thanks for the info
Yes that I have already rod somewhere like BSLO Brake Second Lavatory Open and TSO Trailer second Open etc...
Thanks for the tips. I will take a look deeply next time I play with freight cars. Thank you very much for the easy way to recognize whatever type...
Aah ! good to know. I wasn't aware of this tip. And contrario when it is not ended by a A letter does it significate we can consider it is vacuum...
Yeah I know to do the switching thing to match the hauled carriage but how to know before switching to match the type of brakes how to know what...
Hello, When I couple some freight cars to a loco, I never know if they are air or vacumm brakes fitted. Is there a way by some plate board on the...
Hello, browsing the route list on TSW on Steam, I Don't see anymore the NEC New York route. Is it normal or DTG retrieve the route from the list ?
Thank you for the clarification and a happy St. DIMITRI to morrow. Have a nice and happy fest day. Cheers Gerard
Ah sorry I might do a mistake talking about a BR 185. I wished to say that come as a standalone loco BR 182. Sorry for the confusion.
Yes looks like DTG has the foot on the brake pedal to avoid saling at low cost LOL Although if the BR 185 cost only about 7 euros I will buy it...
Yes I Believe the prices wasn't fixed before the mailing sent XD. Looks like a too speedy info !!!
