The four quadrant motor drive of the LT150A will slow
down the locomotive to a stop on an even surface.
if you are on an inclined track piece , the locomotive
might continue to slowly creep forward or backward
down the track. You can prevent this by giving a little
bit of throttle in the opposite direction of travel
Warning! This method is
only useful for short stops.
DON’T keep the locomotive
throttled up stationary on an
inclined track piece for too
long. It can cause heat dam-
age to your motors!!
