RE: Genesis Braking

Hmmm, never have had THAT problem.The only "problem" I've had is the brakes seem kinda weak. Maybe I shouldn't be driving so damn fast....

If you are comfortable editing the ENG file for the NALW Genesis engines (using WORDPAD -- not Notepad), then go about 3/4's of the way down thru the ENG file and you will see a section that begins with ----> BRAKE_TRAINabout 2 lines later, there is a line ----> NOTCH (0.3 1 TrainBrakesControllerGraduatedSelfLapLimitedStart )add the word Holding between Limited and Start, thus NOTCH (0.3 1 TrainBrakesControllerGraduatedSelfLapLimitedHoldingStart )and that will fix the braking problem you are describing.Dudley
