Thanks for your Help...

I have found in a lot of this long threads:

IF I ADD IN THE *.WAG-File

ORTSBearingType ( Roller )

The Train (one Dash9 + 50 Chemical-Cars) reach 5 M/h in my flat Test-Route in about 22s
Instead of 40s without this NEW OR-PARAMETER


Hi
This line should be even in eng file on dash9 or the dash 9 get solid bearings.
Now you get 22 s whatever you change in friction line C1 up to 5 mph.
or, to be closely, Around 1-2 mph, it is far from C1 wag file but 4-5 is the right near the value

Possible that will change in the future...... Info

I have calculate how much time the Train
1 DASH9 + 50 Chemical-cars
need to reach the speed of 5 Mph only to accelerate the gravity of the Train (no Friction calculated)

Weight of the Train (50 Cars+Engine):
50*117t+155t = 6005t = 6005000kg

Gravity of the Train = 6005000kg
Force of the Engine 650000N (N=mkg/s^2)

Acceleration of the train:
Force/Gravity
650000 m kg/s^2 / 600500kg = 0,108 m/s^2

5Mph = 8.05 km/h = 2,24m/s

Time to reach 2,24m/s^2 (=5Mph)
Endspeed/Acceleration
2,24 m/s^2 / 0,108 m/s^2 = 20,7 seconds

I hope my physical calculation don't have to much errors
It wasn't yesterday I have learned this at the scool!!
