By default, it seems that the Independent (locomotive) Brake in MSTS applies ONLY to the lead locomotive in a Multiple Unit (MU) lashup (I checked and confirmed this by running several MU lashups).I understand from reading some previous posts that it is possible to have ALL the MU locomotives independent brakes apply when the lead (player) locomotive independent brake is applied. And I presume to enable this feature, editing of the *.eng files would be required (I couldn't find details on HOW to enable all independent brakes)?So, how does one enable this feature please?Thanks.
