<p><span style="font-family:verdana,geneva;font-size:small;">[quote user="Norm48327"]77 Might have worked. 72 cars + 5 locomotives.<img alt="My 2 Cents" src="/emoticons/icon_smile_2cents.gif" />[/quote]</span></p> <p><span style="font-family:verdana,geneva;font-size:small;">That is how many I would have set. At least if it rolled, it would have been my fault. </span></p> <p><span style="font-family:verdana,geneva;font-size:small;">But, then there is the issue of how tight to wind them. Without defining what it means for a brake to be "set," the number of brakes set would be irrelevant. </span></p> <p><span style="font-family:verdana,geneva;font-size:small;">Maybe there is a rule about what is required for a handbrake to be considered set. Perhaps one of the railroaders could chime in on that topic. </span></p>
