Changes in train consist makeup brought about by modern types of large and high capacity freight cars have had noticeable effects on the type and amount of train braking necessary for safe and adequate train speed and slack control. This paper is the result of recent investigations into the amount of braking duty, the intensity and duration of braking horsepower on car and locomotives wheels. It also examines effects of forces resulting from braking and slack actions on train operations over all types of terrain common to North America. Trends and future projections are examined from an operations engineering point of view.
