Remember this thread ? First let me say thanks to Don, John, and now Mike for perservering and keeping this board going. I have learned a lot about Colorado, New Mexico, the narrow gauge, and people on this board, thanks. The question I have is when you apply the train brake do you "bail off" on the independent brake? If so, every time or under certain circumstances? Hope this is not a repeat question. Rick.
