Message definition (Engine & Compression Brake)

Disengaging {{pll|Throttle|throttle}} of an engine naturally leads it to drop RPM. However, because the {{pll|Mechanical Transmission|mechanical transmission}} has such a firm link between the engine and the wheels, slowing down of the engine causes the vehicle to slow down too, if the {{pll|Reverser|reverser}} is set in the direction of travel. Selecting a gear where RPM is high gets the most out of an engine brake, and if a train is light enough it will slow down from mere disengagement of the throttle.

	Disengaging {{pll\|Throttle\|throttle}} of an engine naturally leads it to drop RPM. However, because the {{pll\|Mechanical Transmission\|mechanical transmission}} has such a ~~tight bond~~ between the engine and the wheels, slowing down of the engine causes the vehicle to slow down too, if the {{pll\|Reverser\|reverser}} is set in the direction of travel. Selecting a gear where RPM is high gets the most out of an engine brake, and if a train is light enough it will slow down from mere disengagement of the throttle.
