A 15-car local train with an air turbine ETD is performing a Brake Pipe Leakage Method Test. What is required?
Close the angle cock between the locomotive and train
Close the angle cock between the second-to-last and the last car
Disarm the ETD before conducting the test
Close the angle cock between the last car and the ETD
Answer: Close the angle cock between the last car and the ETDFeedback: If you're on a smaller train such as a Local, an air turbine ETD may bleed down your air by more than 5 psi before the test is complete. If that happens, you must close the angle cock between the ETD and last car to get an accurate test.
