Line 1: Line 1:
For this reason there are cylinder cocks. They are operated by a valve from inside the cab, allowing water to be released from the cylinders. As some of the steam from the cylinder is lost while the cylinder cocks are open, acceleration is reduced. Typically, the drivers open cylinder cocks for a few seconds after being stationary for some time.
To prevent this, steam engines come equipped with cylinder cocks. They are usually operated by a lever from inside the {{pll|Rail Vehicle Types|cab}}, and allow water to be expelled from the cylinders. However, since steam escapes through the cocks too, they should only remain open for a short time, typically just a few seconds, when the vehicle begins moving from a standstill.
