ABSTRACT:
Train monitoring equipment for a train formed by coupling a plurality of sets of cars of fixed formations, comprising monitoring stations mounted in the respective cars of the train and connected serially by transmission lines. Presetting switches are provided in the respective monitoring stations for presetting the formation numbers of the sets of cars in which the respective monitoring stations are located. One of the monitoring stations which serves as the control station transmits its formation number to the other monitoring stations which then register their station numbers on the basis of conformity or non-conformity of the preset formation numbers with the received formation numbers.
