How does braking work on the rails with loaded cars? Do you put it into neutral and apply the brakes or keep it in gear?

[@BrandtGroupofCompanies]

Hi Derek, Great question! The purpose-built 26C brake system on the Brandt R4 achieves maximum train stopping power while ensuring positive control of the trailing railcars. We recommend keeping the truck in gear to use the certified hi-rail/train brakes first, and supplement with the truck brakes if required. To speak with a R4 specialist, please don't hesitate to call our toll-free number 1-888-2-BRANDT (1-888-227-2638) or send Bruce an email at [e-mail].
