ENG and WAG File Examples

These example ENG and WAG files put all the separate pieces together to support the creation of "realistic" ENg or WAG files for a steam locomotive, just change the relevant values.

They are based upon NSWGR standards, which may different functions compared to the system that you are modelling. For example NSWGR used single pipe air brakes, if you need vaccum brake, then you will need to swap out the appropriate sections.

If you wish to use any of these examples as templates, either cut and paste the text into your working file, or you can right clickt to download the file and then edit it as appropriate.
