Dynamic is there only if certain conditions are met and for the most part are out of the operator's hands. If you meet the following 4 conditions:That the dynamic brake circuit breaker is on in every car. The propulsion circuits in the car are functioning. The train is moving at a speed greater than 5 MPH. The operator is calling for some amount of service brake. Then you will have dynamic brake. It's not within your control whether to have dynamic or friction brake. The particular car 'decides'. |
