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 last car and the ETD
Disarm the ETD before conducting the test
Close the angle cock between the second-to-last and the last car
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.
