ABSTRACT:
A pilot mechanism for improving operation of various functions of the pneumatic brake of a train. The mechanism includes solenoid valves, controllable by either a radio/battery mode of operation or a train wire system mode of operation. The solenoid valves can be interposed in various passages in fluid communication with passages of a conventional ABD control valve, as modified to enable operation of the invention, to permit substantially immediate venting of air in those passages to atmosphere.
