Oh, yeah 440cuin--great point!! Try that and you get a REAL fireworks show!! You (generic-not personal) never EVER break a BIG load like a train while it's still energized, unless you want to send equipment to the backshop and you and your compadres to the hospital, or worse[angel]. Unfortunately, there's no current way (bad pun, sorry-NOT![banghead]) to sectionalize a train's electrical system to remove cars without shutting the entire train down. The equipment could be added that would allow the cars between the break and the HEP generator to remain energized, but at substantial cost per car.[:(]
