Hmmmmm, haha ;) Well, frankly I don't know if the Eddy current brake is used or where it is used, perhaps the use of it in emergency overrides the...
2 questions: 1. Bremshebel = brake handle, I.e the undercarriage lever for "Leer","Beladen" and printed "Umstellgewicht"? I don't speak German...
Yes, the eddy current brakes can cause annealing of the tracks, not very good ;). As far as I know they are still used, but some lines (or...
Speed you follow = min{ATC Speed, Track Speed}
I wanted to see how quick I could stop the ICE3M with emergency brake the other day and found out that no matter whether you use full service (VB...
I don't understand this sentence :D Is "Mod by Muff" a moderator or a mod, and if the latter could you link it? EDIT: I did some googling and...
So from what I have gathered, the 100 klbf at 1mph is not necessarily incorrect as the AC4400 has AC traction motors which can produce high...
Stujoy, maybe my question is redundant since the issue is on the road map but could you perhaps test the locomotive in full dynamic braking like...
I had a discussion with someone about this a while ago. If the generators (what the motors essentially are during dynamic braking) are actually...
You raised some interesting points, but ultimately I'm not sure I'm convinced. As long as you make the velocity of the wheel in the fixed train...
Not sure if this was aimed at me. I tried to reply in a blunt/straight forward way but not rudely, since I felt a lot of false statements were...
So which one is it? First you said it is "impossible" to get wheel slip using dynamic brakes and now you are agreeing with the other guy that it's...
I would really recommend you to create a video if at all possible, it will make it easier for people on PS4 to see if they can reproduce the...
Nice to see professional drivers answering! Do you have any thoughts on the clasp brake physics and my other feedback from the thread I made...
My knowledge is more detailed for Swedish trains (my home country) so I don't know how common this function is in Germany, but I know that the...
No, this is incorrect. In the first clip you can clearly see that the brake pipe pressure (yellow needle, lower right gauge) is reduced. This...
Unless the "higher speed" is something like 60mph, then it could be reasonable that the brake force is lower than at 5mph (in the case of extended...
Can someone confirm whether they experience sound cutting out for a split second in regular intervals on either Ruhr-Sieg-Nord and Köln-Aachen?...
I'm a bit late to the thread but you stated that the dynamic brakes should generate more force with higher velocity. This would imply that the...
I'm not so sure this is a bug. As you can see in the clips the AFB applies air brakes (up to 0.5 bar if I saw it correctly), it then releases the...
I have made a thread describing three bugs, but I'll post a brief summary of them here since my thread is still awaiting approval. 1. (Major):...
This is incorrect. For grades of > 1.5% you are by no means guaranteed to be able to control speed with just the dynamic brakes. Fortunately it's...
I know for a fact that there is a missing Lf6 (advanced speed sign) for the 80km/h reduction at the bridge before Mainz-Römische Theater when...
I for one would not want DTG to modify the timetable scenarios to become less realistic (I'd rather prefer the opposite). I think this is better...
Agreed. The sound occlusion is the right model/step in the right direction, the interior sound level + run sounds just needs to be increased.
I found a cab ride (führerstandsmitfahrt) of the BR155 on youtube: [MEDIA] Go to 5:55 in the video so you can hear the PZB tone to get a sense of...
I'm in the process of writing a ticket but I wanted to post my findings here for others to validate/criticize. TLDR: 1. RSN wagon weights are...
As Stujoy correctly pointed out, this behavior is prototypical. P = F * v, for a constant brake power the force will decrease with higher speed...
