Applying brake to wagons

[rayzr07]

Hi, I'm new to Trainz and have found the controls easy to use. One problem I can't figure out is how you apply the brakes to wagons once you have de-coupled the engine? I would be grateful for any guidance.

You press the {A key} on the keyboard and that applys the brakes,

Hope this helps.

Cheers,

Hi Rayzr

The brakes for wagons are applied when you put loco brakes on, only time wagons have no brakes is if you release train brakes then decouple, I've been working on physics for brakes and I have some when wagons have no brakes and you need a brake van, so make sure the brake cylinders show pressure before you decouple and they won't run away if your on a slight grade .

Thanks for your replies - I'll give it a go when I'm back on Trainz
