| Here at Real Brakes we have made every effort
to duplicate the operation of Prototype railroad brakes. Our brake systems
are true safety brakes that apply if the train line is broken. Application
of the brakes is done by the reduction of air pressure to the "Train
Line". Brake release is done by restoring pressure to the "Train
Line". |
| We offer many configurations that will fit
your needs and your budget. We offer kits and "Ready to Install"
systems as well as complete "Ready to Run" frames with the complete
brake system installed and tested. |
| Our true hope is to make the hobby safer,
while offering the pleasure of more prototypical train operations. |
