    So this is kind of related to my issue with the LIRR M7 I can’t figure out how to get the new Cab car to move! I’m assuming it’s because I haven’t charged the brakes. But the problem is I can’t find anything at all that will charge the brakes for me. If anyone else has purchased this figured out how to move the train during the service route please get back to me because I did everything properly and I just can’t get the thing to move. I did search everywhere.

    Hi. Are you having trouble releasing the brakes? I ran into this problem too when doing the first scenario. I restarted and realized I messed up the setup in the AC64. Hope this helps!

    Have you switched the Brake Mode to lead in the cabcar? You wont be able to release the brakes if you dont do that.

    Hi, yes I’m aware. There is an AC64 on the other end that the cab is controlling. If you were doing the scenario and this happened that might be why.

    I would say Trail would be if you drive the other way around, with the ACS-64 in the lead. However i also noticed that both modes work fine and i cant see a difference while breaking. Having it in Lead just makes more sense to me since the Cabcar is in the lead.
