A brake cylinder limiting valve having a first portion that determines actual brake cylinder pressure and a second portion that determines intended brake cylinder pressure based on brake pipe pressure reduction. The two portions are combined so that brake cylinder pressure will be vented if the actual brake cylinder pressure exceeds intended brake cylinder pressure by a predetermined threshold amount, which is preferably two and one-half times the brake pipe pressure reduction. An exhaust cut-off valve may be used to prevent venting of the brake cylinder pressure if it falls below a predetermined value.
