Translations:Rheostatic & Regenerative Brake/4/en

Rheostatic and regenerative braking, both featured only on some motorized vehicles, do not provide a very powerful braking force for large trains, but can slow them down over time if used tactfully. The effect of this braking type peaks at modest speeds, around 35 km/h. The further the speed from the peak, the weaker the braking force. To bring a vehicle to a complete stop, the driver must use braking methods that rely on brake shoes.
