LIRR / MNCR M7 Development Thread (V1.1 Update Released)

[Fan Railer]

Why'd you bump it down from 6 brake points to 4?

It's in the readme dude:

Version 1.1 update; decreased number of service brake points from 6 to 4, to give B1 brake rate of 0.75 mph/s.

The M7 manual states that the minimum brake rate is 0.75 mph/s, so if the full service rate is 3.0 mph/s then naturally, setting the number of brake points at 4 gives the correct operating characteristics for the minimum application.

Ahh ok. Thanks.

Great job! This is definitely one of the more sophisticated cabs that I've seen.

Too bad they're no MNRR/LIRR routes in development. I'd definitely like to see the Hudson branch be developed one day (or even  Yankee Stadium to Grand Central as a starter) and I'd love to see the Port Washington Branch developed too.

I'm in dvelopemnet for the New Haven Line, see my forum post below my reply
