Glad to see others trying to clarify things. Coaster brakes use magnets and fins to slow a train. High wind would have no effect on this. High wind DOES effect the speed of the train, slowing it down if the train is heading into the wind. Too much slow down could cause a train not to reach the peak of a high hill, for example, and roll back.
