    BVE Class 66

    hello i am wondering if the BVE4 class 66 braking is accurate on the SV setting, when the valve pressure is dropped all the way. The train seems to brake extremely fast for a loaded 6M03 Maybank (Network West Midlands) to Brookfield Yard freight;

    is that accurate that the train can brake that fast?

    Hi,

    Class 66 uses air or vacuum brakes?

        In order to operate air brakes you should make a reduction of about 10 PSI, anything higher than a 15 PSI reduction is considered heavy braking.
