Let's clear one thing up first: The wonky brakes refer to the dynamic brakes decreasing in power with higher speed and vice versa. Is that...

Well, I just checked the SD40-2 YN3b and GP38-2 YN3b on Q352 and both worked fine. I also checked SFJ (F40 and GP38-2) and also encountered no...

Interesting, if that was really a clue. I would have bet that the next North American passenger route would have been a new NEC or at least...

I think I missed this. When did they say that Clinchfield will have random events? And of what nature are those events?

My version was just based on experience. Banking works fine with the distributed power fuse on only in #1. I don‘t know if that‘s prototypical....

Thank you very much. It‘s good to know that my video was actually helpful :)

Almost happened to me too when I first played SPG. Thankfully, the emergency brakes were strong enough to bring me to a stop :D

Probably. I guess we have to wait for Adam‘s team to get to SKA.

The issue of the usual 155/182 substitution not being present was raised on the forums when the freight layers for SKA were released. Matt said...

I always set up the light controls as if the locos were alone. Of course, #2 and #3 don't show any lights, but when #3 and #4 head back down,...

Indeed. I always set up #4 as lead since that would (to my mind) enable the real crew to get back down the grade a little bit quicker and since...

Thank you for your kind words :)

I put together a video, matjamca. It seems that solicitr already put together a detailed post, but seeing how I already invested the work, I'll...

I can try to record something as well. I think my English is fairly comprehensible so I could do it with voice over instead of subtitles. Since I...

We‘re talking about the MU valve, right? The three settings are Lead or dead, Trail 6 or 26, Trail 24. The difference between the trail settings...

Check out the guide by breblimator which you can find in his signature. It‘s a table that details which switches need to be in what setting. One...

I lost count of how often I wished for dynamic brakes on NTP :D

There are multiple advantages to dynamic brakes on diesels. They‘re quick to apply and release which means that you can easily adjust and fine...

Seems like our prayers were heard - both are in sale right now.

That‘s what I meant. My reading was: You use the dynamics alone. If and only if they cannot hold the train alone, then you switch to blended...

For me it‘s clearly the Br 363 for one very subjective and one operational reason. It‘s adorable. I mean, look at it - with it‘s side rods and...

[ATTACH] It says: If the electric brakes alone can no longer hold the train ... Is it just me or does this officially confirm that you‘re...

Indeed. Try a run with two SD40-2s as lead, matjamca .

I probably will. My wallet will complain, but then again, it complains all the time :D

No, it doesn‘t.

Indeed. Check his signature on his profile. Or click here.

Yeah, me too :D Still considering whether I should also get the Class 20 while it‘s still on sale.

Did your train have rear DPUs? You can check this by looking at the back of your train via the map or external cameras. If there were locos there,...

I didn‘t even know that that is a possibility. I assumed that such things had to be symmetrical. As you can probably tell, UK railroading is...

A sound course, indeed.

Same thing happens for me. I‘m curious about the correct procedure as well.

Did you remember to turn the radio fuse on? It‘s off by default in the SD40-2.

Absolutely stunning :love:

It seems to be a GP38-2 problem. I tested Q352 on a base PS4. The service had an SD40-2 YN3b as lead and a GP38-2 YN3b as trail. The SD40-2 HOTD...

Smooth. Really smooth :D

That‘s probably also what‘s happening on SFJ. You tend to see a lot of headlights + aux on at the end of trains there.

I sincerely hope we won‘t have to get a loco DLC just for using the freight cars we already got. I‘m holding off on Arosa right now specifically...

Oh yes, I just meant the Dash 8 services. The run 7orenz did in winter, clear is the most demanding run, I‘d say. It‘s the same auto rack train...

That would be in line with how the PC version got fixed. Never was listed as a fix. Since stujoy already confirmed that the GP38-2 is working for...

I think my shoddy memory is to blame here. Now that I think about it, it‘s possible that my research run was actually about 2x SD40-2s and they...

I tried changing the keyboard language. I used English (UK) and English (US). The change worked which I confirmed via writing in a chat, but...

Thanks, I think you can change the keyboard language in the PS4 settings. I‘ll try it out and report here for the benefit of others.

Just got done with testing all of the EMDs. SD40-2 YN3b, GP38-2 in YN2/YN3b/UP, F40PH. All of their dynamics are working again on PS4. How about...

Interesting news! I just tried the YN2 SD40-2 on PS4 - service Q352. The dynamic brakes worked! I uncoupled the leading SD, sped up to ~50 mph and...

Thanks a lot. I really appreciate all your help:)

So, I just tried it using this [ATTACH] as a reference. [CTRL][-] did nothing for me while [CTRL][+] works. I also tried all of the other keys...

You‘re just a fountain of knowledge, aren‘t you? :D Thanks for enlightening me. Now I just need to figure out what that translates to on my German...

Ooh :) Thanks for flagging this to me. I know what I‘m gonna try out tonight :D

Not really as far as I can tell. If I use the key combination to switch cabs, I only switch between the 2 leading locomotives, not the rear ones....
