Talking about this in another thread reminded me to apply Jean-Louis Chauvin more responsive brakes parameters to all my locos and amend all the combined throttles with Jim Ward's improved notching ones.

Before you let the unzipped AssetSetup.exe install these modifications, BACK-UP your Assets folder.

While working on these modifications and testing them, I realized that Jim's GEEP7 controls did not move.

So I greased them and it is now included in this installed by Mike Simpson's AssetSetup.exe download:

Have FUN ! :D

Otto, I downloaded the zip file and tried it on a couple of the German engines. I can't see any change in the operation. What am I supposed to experience?

An improved response when applying train brakes and more precise notching when using the combined throttle/brakes control of the DB294.

In case you did not see my original post on the subject:

Jean-Louis' response started me revising all my RS locos brakes.
