    Class 47 on Xbox One = Unplayable

    I recorded this video just a couple of hours ago. Hope DTG find a solution, soon.

    I'm pretty sure you should use air brakes for the tank wagons, not the vacuum.

    Did you seen the video? Because, at minute 1:13, I voluntarily show that the braking system is set to "vacuum good" (like for all freight services in this route) and I run full throttle. :)

    Exactly, it should be "air - goods". Vacuum is only used for the van wagons.

    As first thanks for the tip. Anyway, just now I tried to follow your suggestion but unfortunately the same service (BR Class 47 with oil tank cars) from Man Victoria to Leeds run exactly like in my previous video, also if, before the start, I switch the braking system to Air Good. Max speed in the same railway block it was about 8 mph but speed continue to decrease slowly. So the problem, in this case, is not the wrong braking system setup but the "underpowered" engine.

    You are correct vaccum does not release on the tankers
