IR 2150

Hi

In the line Salzkotten-got-kassel, when i'm passing around the milepost 315, I'm always getting stopped by a 2000hz induzi.
It's the place where one must reduce from 140 to 100.
There are no signals or anything. Just the usual side speed reduction posts.

There are however some magnets on the line, at the spot where the indusi gets ''fired'', so it seems that they are activated with something...
I've tried to acknowledge them, but nothing...Keep getting stopped..

Is it a bug on the route, or am I doing something wrong?

Hello,

The magnets are a "GPA" (Geschwindigkeitsprüfabschnitt, rough translation: speed check something) They ensure that you reduce the speed of the train enough to reach the target speed on the spot. They trigger if you pass them with a speed higher than 120 km/h, but add a 5 km/h buffer to be safe.

Use the breaks a bit more... and try to pass at 115 km/h.

Greetings

Geschwindigkeitsprüfabschnitt!!!!!

Yeah...it seems it's really that. I'm actually braking to be at the limit right at the signal, so yes, most likely that..

Thanks

Hello,

Just saw in an other thread that there is a manual section: 2.12.2.2.3.4 Speed checking sections.
