EU07 Simulator English forum / Odp: Why trains must start with two pantographs raised?
« dnia: 30 Października 2022, 21:27:52 »
Why is is preferred to raise the rear pantograph? I assume this is because if the front pantograph is raised asnd there is a pantograph-accident, the rear pantograph may also be damaged... but if the rear pantograph is raised and there is a pantograph-accident, then the front pantograph may not be damaged?
P.S. Can anyone explain why there is additional Polish graffiti in the CD183 cabin for the pantograph lever? My (bad) guess is that to raise the rear pantograph, the switch must be moved in a different direction depending on which cabin is being used (e.g up for cabin A; down for cabin B)... But maybe the polish person with the label printer did not check if they are in cabin A or cabin B?
P.S.2 Does the power controller also move by itself in the real Skoda 3KV locomotives when the driver does not press ctrl? Is this a real feature (automatically move the power controller if it does not agree with the tap changer) or is it a bug?
