Just like the old one here which is used for both the tyre launch and brakes.

As you can see on the Thunderbird train though, the blue beam is for the brakes, and the silver M like bit in the middle goes around the magnets of the LIM. With Hulk not having anything that would go around a LIM, I think we're keeping the tyre launch!

It's amazing how suddenly, the old train looks so dated.
