Answer: - When the first 25 cars are conventional (non-multiplatform), weighing a minimum of 100 tons each - When handling intermodal equipment, and the first 25 platforms are solid-loaded, double-stack type equipment

Feedback:
It is important to look at the make-up of the train to see how many dynamic brake axles are allowed. These two scenarios allow for a train to operate with up to 32 equivalent dynamic brake axles. Any combination of the two scenarios would allow for 32 equivalent dynamic brake axles (first 10 platforms are solid-loaded, double-stack type equipment, and the next 15 cars are conventional cars weighing a minimum of 100 tons each).
