As I recall, there is a time delay setting in the engine file between the warning and brake application.
Here is a clip from the Acela of the sections that apply. What follows are not the default settings but my own. As you can see, I just zero'd most everything out but some selective altering may get you what you want.
I think one of the Route_Riter utilities is able alter these parameters globally.
EmergencyStopMonitor(
		MonitoringDeviceMonitorTimeLimit( 0 )
		MonitoringDeviceAlarmTimeLimit( 0 )
		MonitoringDevicePenaltyTimeLimit( 0 )
		MonitoringDeviceCriticalLevel( 0 )
		MonitoringDeviceResetLevel( 0 )
		MonitoringDeviceAppliesFullBrake( 0 )
		MonitoringDeviceAppliesEmergencyBrake( 0 )
		MonitoringDeviceAppliesCutsPower( 1 )
		MonitoringDeviceAppliesShutsDownEngine( 0 )
		)

	VigilanceMonitor(
		MonitoringDeviceMonitorTimeLimit( 45 )
		MonitoringDeviceAlarmTimeLimit( 37 )
		MonitoringDevicePenaltyTimeLimit( 0 )
		MonitoringDeviceCriticalLevel( 0 )
		MonitoringDeviceResetLevel( 0 )
		MonitoringDeviceAppliesFullBrake( 0 )
		MonitoringDeviceAppliesEmergencyBrake( 0 )
		MonitoringDeviceAppliesCutsPower( 0 )
		MonitoringDeviceAppliesShutsDownEngine( 0 )
		)

	OverspeedMonitor(
		MonitoringDeviceMonitorTimeLimit( 0 )
		MonitoringDeviceAlarmTimeLimit( 5 )
		MonitoringDevicePenaltyTimeLimit( 0 )
		MonitoringDeviceCriticalLevel( 151 )
		MonitoringDeviceResetLevel( 0 )
		MonitoringDeviceAppliesFullBrake( 0 )
		MonitoringDeviceAppliesEmergencyBrake( 0 )
		MonitoringDeviceAppliesCutsPower( 0 )
		MonitoringDeviceAppliesShutsDownEngine( 0 )
		MonitoringDeviceTriggerOnTrackOverspeed( 0 )
		MonitoringDeviceTriggerOnTrackOverspeedMargin( 2 )
		MonitoringDeviceResetOnZeroSpeed( 1 ) 
		MonitoringDeviceResetOnResetButton( 0 )
		)

Tweak these puppies and I think you will be pleased with the result. Just one engine at first tho' until you get it right.
regards,vince


I have found so far only a few deisels have the problem and I have just tried the above changes Vince has suggested on the Jet train and this does the trick.
Thanks Vince.
