i know about feed valving it to get rid fo a kicker...but you cant do that on the new computer controlled locomotives... its not a matter of how much you draw off...it all comes down to the fact that in the cold..it takes longer for the air to pump up... if you draw down 10 pounds or more...and you have to do a quick release... you have a bigger chance of getting stuck brakes... ill say it one more time... air= problems.... dynamic=less problems... why use the air if you can get the same results from dynamo and with less risk of train problems...it goes without saying for the snow.... in that instance..you have to do that..... but any other time..why use air if you have enought dynamic..... i guess alot of what it comes down to is who trained you... if you where on with an engineer that strechbrakes...then you learn how to strechbrake... most of the engineers that trained me...use dynamic...
