<p><span style="font-family:verdana,geneva;font-size:small;">[quote user="jeffhergert"]We just release the automatic and independent brakes after tying the hand brakes. Once the cars start to release, you know quite soon if the train is going to move or not.[/quote]</span></p> <p><span style="font-family:verdana,geneva;font-size:small;">Jeff, </span></p> <p><span style="font-family:verdana,geneva;font-size:small;">When you release the air and find you have enough handbrakes to hold the train, do you just leave it at that, or do you then set a specific prescribed number of additional handbrakes as a final safety factor?</span></p>
