About Faster trains and braking
From Factorio Mod PortalIncrease locomotive and wagon max speed, add infinite braking research
By default train speed, power and braking force are doubled. This should result in train movement being relatively the same (i.e. % of time spent accelerating/braking), while being twice as fast. Adjustable in startup settings.
The new infinite research gives 20% braking force, with linear cost scaling. Can be disabled in startup settings.
Should work with modded locomotives/wagons/etc.
