trainman8119 Posted August 30, 2006 Report Share Posted August 30, 2006 If pulled, they would activate the emergency brake on the train Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ryanbytes Posted August 30, 2006 Author Report Share Posted August 30, 2006 How fast would the train stop? Is it a wheel locking extravaganza or is it a little slower and smoother? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ryanbytes Posted August 31, 2006 Author Report Share Posted August 31, 2006 Has anyone ever experienced the emergency stop? When would it be used and by who? Besides some knucklehead that is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ahmed Burson Posted October 18, 2006 Report Share Posted October 18, 2006 The only emergency stop I've experienced, was when a motorman ran a red light. I was standing by the doors when it happened. Smashed my forehead against the glass partition. Man, was I in pain! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
