Message definition (Braking Overview)

Some of the main risks associated with brakes are:
* Parked trains turning into runaways due to {{pll|Cylinder Leaks|brake cylinder leaks}} and misapplied {{pll|Handbrake|handbrakes}}.
* Forgotten applied {{pll|Handbrake|handbrake(s)}} resulting in hindered {{pll|Vehicle Catalog Overview|pulling power}}.
* Badly set up {{pll|Air Brake System Overview|brake pipe valves}} leading to limited train brake availability.
* Traction loss resulting in {{pll|Wheelslide|wheelslide}} if brakes are applied too hard in {{pll|Weather|wet conditions}}.
* Prolonged mechanical brake usage resulting in {{pll|Brake Shoes|brake shoe overheating}} and loss of braking power.
* Incorrectly setup {{pll|Brake Cutout|brake cutout valves}}, resulting in dysfunctional {{pll|Train Brake|train brakes}}.
* Excessive {{pll|Dynamic Brake|dynamic brake}} use leading to {{pll|Powertrain Overheating|powertrain overheating}}.
