Nice video of a really long train! This was a standard stop. In an emergency stop the air pressure is dumped and you can hear the air release followed very quickly by squealing brakes. My understanding is that when this happens the train cannot start moving again until the compressor in the locomotive builds sufficient pressure down the entire train line to release the brakes, which can take quite a while. In a standard stop the engineer applies the brakes with a reduction in pressure. The remaining air in the tank on each car is then used to release the brakes. Also if you look at the suspension on the cars you can see that the springs are not compressed, indicating that these cars are likely empties. In an emergency stop, a train full of unladen cars can stop far more quickly than this train did.

We ALL need to Chill Out a Bit. That’s why our Country is in the Toilet 🚽 right now. Need Respect.

Man, at least that the train did not derail

That wasn't a emergency stop. You'd hear the air brakes dump.

Great video !!!!

wooow 225 wagons and 4 locomotives

Some cager parked on the tracks perhaps.

After this was filmed, word got out that every covered hopper within 1200 miles was missing. Nah it wasn't an emergency stop cause if it were, it would take until dark for the compressors to refill all those air tanks.

Great upload! Where is this location?

I liked the video,it improved my thunking.

I like train videos on KZbin 👍

I guessing this was a PTC stop.

That's no emergency stop. It would be screeching otherwise.

That wasn’t a emergency stop at all???

There was a donut shop up ahead so they stopped

Couple wrong things here. First the train did NOT make an emergency stop. It was a controlled stop and if it were an emergency stop it would not have started back up that quickly. Second part is you ILLEGALLY trespassed on railroad property. Being a foamer does not grant you permission to trespass on railroad property
