Message definition (Independent Brake)

Similarly to {{pll|Train Brake|train brakes}}, independent ones use mechanical {{pll|Brake Shoes|brake shoes}} controlled by {{pll|Air Brake System Overview|compressed air}}. However, they only serve a particular vehicle and not the entire train. Because their working volume is smaller than that of a train brake, pressure equalization is quicker, making independent brakes more practical to use on solo vehicles.

Most locomotives and railcars come equipped with independent brakes. Similarly to train brakes , independent ones are controlled by compressed air . However, they only serve a particular vehicle and not the entire train. Since their working volume is smaller than that of a train brake, pressure equalization is faster, so independent brakes are practical to use when the vehicle is running solo.
