Re: [CBQ] Dynamic Brakes

John,

My understanding is that only a locomotive equipped with dynamic brakes can activate them, therefore, the GP's would not be able to control the dynamic brakes on a locomotive so equipped.

FT's) were delivered with Dynamic Brakes and none of the GP-7's or

middle of a 4-unit set of F's, for extra horsepower, could the Dynamic
Brakes still be used... and would it  activate on all four of the F-units?
