    C40-8 and U-boats won't move

    There is evidently a physics or brake problem with these particular engines, as brakes are fully released and the reverser is in forward, engines rev up, but go no where. Fixed it once before, but two strokes later, I can't remember what I changed. Any help would be highly appreciated.
    Just in passing, Open Rails is a great program. I really like it, and keep the latest version on my computer. Heads above MSTS, which just barely runs under Windows 7 pro 64-bit.

    Check the MaxPower line in the eng file it should have kW, but some have kN and go nowhere fast.
    Beer is not a matter of life or death, it is much more serious than that.

      Kn was the problem. I will start checking the power also from now on. Thanks for the help. Old age ain't for sissies.
