    Hi

    I've had several instances of trains derailing under emergency brake on this route, this is not happening on junctions. Has anyone else experienced similar?

    I've had it happen on two or three different trains now. No consistent pattern

    I ran through all the tutorials on this route last week and most of them have you apply the emergency brake, no derailments experienced. Outside the tutorials I only had 1 instance where I accidentally put the talent 2 into emergency and it was fine.

    There's definitely something not right here. I was playing wrong road scenarion on Dresden. Slowing for a station in the rain, derailed on about 85% brakes. I've had it twice this morning. It seems to only be in the rain so I do not know if it's linked to the adhesion.

    Can confirm, it always happens in rainy weather on about 80%+ brakes.
    Instead of getting wheel slip, you immediately derail and are thrown against the windshield.

    I had quite a lot of wheelslip when slowing down for station stops in that run, but no derailments. Actually I can't remember the last time I derailed in TSW, I think it's quite difficult, unless you foul switches, or try to couple at too high a speed.

    Dresden seems to be the only route I suffer this on
