Keywords: derailment detection, end of train device, electronically controlled pneumatic brake system, rail freight, innovation.

Summary

Safe rail freight transport of goods, especially dangerous goods, without harming humans, nature, infrastructure, trains or the goods is of essential importance for the mobility in the twenty-first century. There are three brake or brake related innovations for freight trains that can improve the safety in the freight traffic: derailment detectors, electronically controlled pneumatic (ECP) brake systems and end of train devices. This paper presents development results and experience of the last ten years with these systems and an analysis of the reasons why they could not gain broader market acceptance. Future trends of freight car braking systems and their implications for safety will also be considered.
