ABSTRACT:
A computerized electro-pneumatic braking system that includes a train monitoring system. Preferably, the braking system control device is installed on all vehicles on the train. When braking is initiated, the system applies the brakes instantaneously and simultaneously to all the vehicles on the train, bringing the train to a stop quickly. Sensors on the system's control device also monitor operating conditions of each vehicle and report the results to the master controller.
