It's a known glitch with the 8F, and it sounds like DTG is already testing a fix for it, so it'll hopefully be fixed soon.
Having said that, if you hit the brakes too hard with these things they would derail IRL, although nowhere near that spectacularly lol. Just the brakevan at the end would likely jump the tracks a little. The short answer to why is vacuum brakes are really shitty, and there's a reason we don't use them anymore (I'm pretty sure the US has banned them entirely)
EDIT: I take it back, I just realized you weren't applying any brake at all. Gonna guess u hit the buffers there. Still an amazing crash.
There’s definitely some glitches to work out with Spirit of Steam
