Message definition (Cylinder Leaks)

That said, there are ways to keep running trains safely stationary without handbrakes too, even though this is not recommended. If a train with an applied {{pll|Train Brake|train brake}} contains a motorized vehicle with a {{pll|Lapping|self-lapping}} control valve and a functioning {{pll|Compressor|compressor}}, as long as the engine is running the pressure in all of the train’s brake cylinders will be maintained. This means runaways due to leaks won’t be possible. If the train, however, only contains a {{pll|Lapping|non-self-lapping}} vehicle doing the braking, pressure in the cylinders will not be maintained and can lead to a runaway, unless the brake handle is in the {{pll|Lapping|service}} position.

This means runaways due to leaks won’t be possible. If the train, however, only contains a non-self-lapping vehicle doing the braking, pressure in the cylinders will not be maintained and can lead to a runaway, unless the brake handle is in the service position.
