    Hi squirrel. Freight train driver here. Your guide is great, but just one thing. You would NEVER use the locomotive brake to control the speed with a train on. The loco brake is only for slowing a light locomotive, or holding a train when already stationary. Never with wagons on, you will destroy your brakes and wheelsets.
    Cheers.

      it also does cancel your dynamic brake I think, on some diesel loco you control with train brake but bleed the independent ones to effectively use the dynamic brakes.

      @piter_sk Рік тому +4

      yup, passenger train driver-candidate here, we use loco brake just to correct the speed when slowing down for next signal (but just few km/h difference, f.e. you pass "expect 40km/h" signal, your speed is 120km/h, so you slow down to 43km/h so you just use loco brake to correct the difference as we have 0km/h tolerance) or holding the train stationary in station/train stop... I was said to use the locomotive brake as little as possible, just as you said, to keep the wear as low as possible

  • @157RANDOM

    A bit of real world knowledge that may help with the sim, our GOI and Locomotive Engineer's Operating Manual states that you should leave at least 3 seconds between notches when changing power settings up or down, with a 10 second break between throttle and dynamic, taking a total of 30 seconds to go from minimum to maximum dynamic after the 10 second idle period between.

    • @squirrel
      @squirrel  Рік тому +7

      Thanks. The sim has no such limits. In real life, what happens if you don’t follow those guidelines?

    • @157RANDOM
      @157RANDOM Рік тому +27

      @squirrel Mainly, you get yelled at when the recorder is downloaded automatically and sends messages to higher ups that limits have been exceeded. The guidelines are mainly to reduce wear and maintenance requirements, but the actual logic behind it is to reduce amperage spikes associated with rapid throttle adjustments. Waiting 10 seconds between throttle and dynamic allows the current to dissipate in the traction motors before you turn them into generators. This again reduces current spikes and general wear on components and actually makes the transition to dynamic smoother. The other part of it is slack. If you throttle up too fast you can easily break a knuckle due to high slack forces, and if you transition to dynamic too fast high buff forces of all the slack running in at once can derail lighter weight cars.

    • @piter_sk
      @piter_sk Рік тому +2

      between changing direction we have to wait few seconds too, just because it´s mechanical switches operated by electropneumatical valves on some electrical locomotives... as well, going from 60% to 0% Fp (proportional thrust - long story short, it´s thyristor pulse regulation) you´d go in steps, 60%->40%->15%->0% just because if you´d dump straight into 0% Fp all the electrical current would overflow the condensers (filters) and dump back into traction motor rotor creating spikes which aren´t good for the engine.... imagine if game could simulate such behaviour, it´d be awesome

      That's because it *is* the throttle and not a pump handle for priming. The starter switch (edit: real starter switch) is turned one way to engage the fuel pump and prime the system, then the opposite way to start, and the handle is a manual throttle control for the engine.

    @ostlandr Рік тому +3

    On US locomotives, activating the independent (locomotive) brake would deactivate the dynamic brake. The only exception to this was on the Southern Railway's (later Norfolk Southern) infamous Saluda Grade. Locomotives operating on this stretch of 4.25% grade had a "Saluda key" installed that allowed the independent and dynamic brakes to be used together.

    Shame about the remote not working with the DE6. This will make running long consists with a loco in the middle much tougher, as well as any rescues where you end up running locos at both ends.
    I would expect see someone mod in support for all locos very soon after release.
    The dynamic brake is also simpler to operate than the real ones I'm aware of. This is a good thing otherwise we'd be seeing a lot of broken or runaway engines.

    Talk about burying the lede, not using the remote in a DE6 is a shocker. I hope the new UI makes up for it, I really struggle without the remote. Thanks for the video, I'm excited for next Friday!

    so is derail valley going to change its name after the update from derail valley overhauled to something else? confusing in your video when your using different game names

    • @thetreedemoknight4827
      @thetreedemoknight4827 Рік тому +3

      The game's name is pretty much just Derail Valley, Overhauled is the name of the last major update released in 2020, and that name got added to Derail Valley after the update was released. The new upcoming update (introducing weather systems and multiple game saves among other additions) is called Simulator, so the game will be changing from Derail Valley: Overhauled to Derail Valley: Simulator

    I am at the point of buying this sim/game but do have a question regarding Simulator. I assume this is a significant update to the same game right? not a "derail valley 2" or something similar? I am a bit unsure because it is (not only by you) referred to as DV and DV sim, giving the idea that it might be a new sim/game instead of an update
