Rheostatic and regenerative braking, both featured only on some motorized vehicles, do not provide a very powerful braking force for large trains, but can slow them down over time if used tactfully. The effect of this braking type peaks at modest speeds, at around 35 km/h. The further the speed from the peak, the weaker the braking force. To bring a vehicle to a complete stop, use braking methods that rely on brake shoes.
