===Safety Cut-out / Emergency Stop===
===Safety Cut-out / Emergency Stop===
This is the most common breakdown and affects most rides. The details of the breakdown are not explained, but it has a number of effects. If the ride consists of trains or cars that are powered by the track, such as a [[Monorail]] or [[Car Ride]], those vehicles will stop moving. If the ride is a roller coaster that consists of a lift hill, trains being pulled up the lift will stop once a breakdown occurs. In all cases, trains waiting to exit the station will not be allowed to depart until the breakdown is addressed, even if they have exceeded their maximum wait time. This breakdown can result in a crash if a roller coaster has a part where a roller coaster is moving really fast, but then goes up a chain lift hill. It could get stuck on the hill while another roller coasters collides into it. The term "Safety Cut-out" is used in ''RollerCoaster Tycoon'' and ''RollerCoaster Tycoon 2'', while the term "Emergency Stop" is used in ''RollerCoaster Tycoon 3''.
