@Bermicourt: Counterweight brake#See also What will it be Exter brake or Exter counterweight brake? Two articles are already linked to the latter, namely Bavarian D I and Mosbach–Mudau Nos. 1 to 4 Peter Horn User talk 20:05, 2 July 2019 (UTC)
- @Peter Horn: Definitely Exter brake as that appears to be used in English sources whereas I couldn't find an instance of the longer version. Did you want to translate the German Wiki article on it? Bermicourt (talk) 20:38, 2 July 2019 (UTC)
- @Bermicourt: What is the German name of the German article? I might translate, but in the interim, a soft redirect to it may have to do. Peter Horn User talk 23:46, 2 July 2019 (UTC)

- Is it an emergency brake (train)) or a locomotive brake? Peter Horn User talk 00:13, 3 July 2019 (UTC)
- @Peter Horn: it appears to be a braked used on early tank locomotives and tenders where both weight and speed were low. On trains, they were used in conjunction with spindle brakes on the wagons themselves, a signal being given by the engine so that the brakemen knew to turn their spindles.

- P.S. Also used as a parking brake. Bermicourt (talk) 06:19, 3 July 2019 (UTC)
