While running a scenario with a Class 66 V2.0 loco, I failed to hit the AWS button fast enough and my train went into an emergency stop. I tried everything I could think of for the next 20 minutes and NEVER could get the brakes to release! Can someone please tell me, step-by-step, what I need to do when this happens again? I'm sure I am doing something wrong, but I don't know what. Also, has anyone else experienced the AWS doesn't work (shut off the alarm) on the HUD? Is there anything I can do to correct this?

I hear the alarm and I believe the HUD lights up, but when I click on it, it does not respond. Any ideas anyone? Thanks in advance for any help you can give me.

Hello, as a real driver myself, I can assist. You need to equalise the brake system in order to release your AWS emergency stop brake application. After your train has come to an emergency stop with your AWS possibly still sounding, press Q to cancel the AWS. Close your power handle, make a full application of your locomotive ‘engine only’ brake (if fitted) place your direction selector in the centre position, make a full application of your ‘train brake’ and ‘hold that position’, watching your brake gauges until no further movement of needles is indicated. Return your ‘train brake’ to the ‘release’ position and again, watch your brake gauges until a full release is indicated and the brake system now equalised. Place your direction selector into the forward position, open your power handle to notch one, release your ‘engine only’ brake when amps rise indicating power taken and you should start moving again.

Thank you, everyone, for your help and suggestions! Chicken Balti, your step-by-step instructions are just what I'm looking for and I will try this the next time I'm in trouble. I will soon find out if the simulator Class 66 works the same as the prototype. I'm not a 'newby' to running the simulator or the Class 66 loco. In fact, I recall a time when releasing the brakes on the Class 66 (after an emergency stop) wasn't a problem at all for me, but it certainly is now. Sometime back (maybe or year or so ago) I purchased and installed the Armstrong Powerhouse (AP) sound pack for this loco and I LOVE the sounds! So much, in fact, this is now one of my favorite locos to run!

Is it possible that installing this pack has affected my brakes? I wouldn't think so, but just thought I'd throw this fact into light. I will try all the suggestions above, and hopefully, this will get me out of trouble.

Thanks again to everyone for your help and guidance! If your running the armstrong powerhouse enhancement or most pro locos. They do state that the HUD and xbox controller dont really work Youll need to close the HUD controls and learn the locomotive cab.what each lever and switch does. Learn using the keys for driving too (best way) Advanced scripted locos simply grew beyond the HUD controls Its all part of learning how to properly drive Feels odd at first but youll get there.and love it when you do:) I had a similar thing when I brought the class 101 from them.

Hated it at first.thought it was broken Its not.just different.id never go back Read the AP manual it should help.

'If (the Driver Safety Device) is not constantly monitored and acknowledged by the driver whilst a train is in motion the system will automatically apply the train brakes' Freightliner spokesman A spokesman added to MailOnline: 'However it is virtually impossible for a sleeping driver to set a stationary train into motion as it requires the active operation of a power handle. 'This class of locomotive (66) are fitted with a Driver Safety Device (DSD) part of which is a vigilance system, that if it is not constantly monitored and acknowledged by the driver whilst a train is in motion the system will automatically apply the train brakes.'
