So the whole train would brake in emergency, the diesel would have it's brakes applied and still pushing? I know you can't control the diesels' brakes from the steamer control stand, so you are telling me there was no over-ride safety that would throttle the diesel down unless it was done manually? So they forgot about the field switch too?
