"To slow the train\n"+
"1. Press the A key to move the throttle to a lower setting.\n"+
"2. Use the brakes to further reduce speed if desired.\n\n"+
"To apply the dynamic brakes\n"+
"1. Press the A key to move the throttle to the Idle position.\n"+
"2. Wait for 10 seconds, then press the . (PERIOD) key to advance the Dynamic Brake handle from Off to the Setup position. After allowing a few seconds for braking circuit setup, press the . (PERIOD) key again to set the desired level of dynamic braking (Levels 1 - 8).\n\n"+
"To release the dynamic brakes\n"+
"1. Press the D key to move the throttle towards Idle.\n\n"+
"To apply the train brakes\n"+
"1. Press the ' (APOSTROPHE) key to apply the train brakes.\n\n"+
"To bail off the train brakes on the locomotive\n"+
"1. Press the / (FORWARD SLASH) key.\n\n"+
"To release the train brakes\n"+
"1. Press the ; (SEMICOLON) key to release the train brakes.\n\n"+
"To apply the locomotive brake\n"+
"1. Press the ] (RIGHT BRACKET) key to apply the locomotive brake.\n\n"+
"To release the locomotive brake\n"+
"1. Press the [ (LEFT BRACKET) key to release the locomotive brake.\n\n"+
"To activate emergency braking\n"+
"1. Press the A key to reduce the throttle to Idle.\n"+
"2. Press the BACKSPACE key to activate emergency braking.\n\n"+
"To back up\n"+
"1. Bring your train to a full stop.\n"+
