Os freios são dispositivos encontrados a bordo dos veículos ferroviários usados para desacelerá-los, fazê-los parar ou mantê-los estacionários. Existem vários tipos diferentes de freios que normalmente estão presentes em vagões e locomotivas, cada um sendo vantajoso para uma finalidade específica. Cada um deles é operado por um dispositivo de controle individual, geralmente uma alavanca ou manivela que pode estar localizada dentro da cabine ou na parte externa do veículo.

A aplicação dos freios é quase sempre feita para ser orientada para longe do maquinista. Isso para que, em caso de emergência, o maquinista possa empurrar todas as alavancas para frente como medida de segurança, sem precisar pensar na regra individual de cada controle.

Os tipos de freios são:

Freio do trem:
Usado para desacelerar ou parar trens.

Risks

Some of the main risks associated with brakes are:

Parked trains turning into runaways due to brake cylinder leaks and misapplied handbrakes .
Forgotten applied handbrake(s) resulting in hindered pulling power .
Badly set up brake pipe valves leading to limited train brake availability.
Traction loss resulting in wheelslide if brakes are applied too hard in wet conditions .
Prolonged mechanical brake usage resulting in brake shoe overheating and loss of braking power.
Incorrectly setup brake cutout valves , resulting in dysfunctional train brakes .
Excessive dynamic brake use leading to powertrain overheating .

Warnings

Depending on the session difficulty settings , a flashing warning light above the brake pipe gauge indicates certain problems with the braking system. They are:

There is a handbrake applied somewhere on the train.
One of the brake pipe valves is incorrectly setup somewhere on the train.
There are more than one brake control devices cut in , or none is, on the train.
