Anyone else notice this "el train" will barely move in ORTS? Pretty sure it's power problem or breaking problem, no data on how to fix. Any suggestions?

A downloadable filename would be a good start.Beer is not a matter of life or death, it is much more serious than that. -
I'm trying to figure out where the train came from, but I believe it was the route Chicago Elevated Rails (wcer04.zip). However, even the ones I use from KLW have the same problem. The BC never goes from 51 to 0 and therefore the max speed I see is 15mph.STSCSComment

OK, found it. The problem arises because it is using the engine independent brake to try and mimic an e-brake.
I changed the 2603.eng brakes controller to
comment ( train e-brake only - off/on )
Brake_Train ( 0 1 0.25 1
NumNotches ( 2
Notch ( 0 0 TrainBrakesControllerReleaseStart )
Notch ( 1 0 TrainBrakesControllerContinuousServiceStart)
)
)
and also altered the wag BrakeEquipmentType and BrakeSystemType lines to match the eng file.
This makes the brakes release or set, nothing in between.Beer is not a matter of life or death, it is much more serious than that.Comment

Has anyone ever posted a fix to the KLW 2400's for OR?
I have the same problem, but can't seem to get above 25mph even though I've changed the notches to 2 and they match the settings above.If you like what you see here at Trainsim.com, be it the discussions and knowledge in the forums, or items available in our library, I hope you'll consider a paid membership to help support keeping the site operating.... Thanks!Comment

You also have to change the two lines mentioned in the wag file to read as
BrakeEquipmentType( "Graduated_release_triple_valve, Auxilary_reservoir, Emergency_brake_reservoir" )
BrakeSystemType( "Air_single_pipe" )
A 4 car unit will reach 60+ in under 4 minutes.Beer is not a matter of life or death, it is much more serious than that.Comment

Worked like a champ on 2603! Haven't tried on the KLW cars yet. Thanks again for the technical support!
