Trains get a Breaking Force research upgrade to mirror the performance boost given with the better fuels.

However, while these fuels work great in tanks/cars too, there's no matching change to breaking force for these. This gives a very different experience with acceleration vs breaking.

I suggest the breaking force research items apply to all vehicles, not just trains.

Looks like this is not going to happen. Duplicate from the "outdated/not implemented" subforum:

Also, "braking" is the act of slowing a vehicle. "Breaking" is smashing it to bits.

I bring this up a lot. As someone who builds high performance cars for a living... rule 1: you do not make something faster without addressing its ability to slow down.

but it always falls on deaf ears.
