Wabtec Air Brake Training

Wabtec Global Services is committed to provide the best possible training on freight and locomotive brake equipment.Training seminars are run annually in the spring and fall at our corporate headquarters in Wilmerding near Pittsburgh,Pennsylvania. These classes provide an opportunity to showcase the equipment operation first hand. Observing the equipmentin operation provides better understanding. This helps workers test and repair the equipment through better knowledge ofthe parts and their functions. As a result more precise corrective actions are taken to correct failures.

To attend one or more of these training sessions contact us at 1-877-922-2627, (412)-825-1602 or visitour website at www.wabtecglobalservices.com. Class dates can also be found on web site www.wabtec.com underCorporate Information - Calendar.

We also do on-site training that can be tailored to meet your specific requirements. With over 35 years of industryexperience, we will customize the training to meet your time and equipment standards on locomotive and/or freight carbrake equipment.

The most popular training package is on Single Car Testing. Whether you want to train your own people or you wantus to certify your employees to FRA Part 49, 232 Standards. We can help. The Single Car Testing package includes anInstructor Guide, Student Workbook, Student Booklet and a CD. The booklets are available in English, Spanish andFrench. The Instructor Guide includes both written and practical tests and is designed for the instructor with knowledge butnot the materials to get the job done. The CD is designed to augment the testing process. It has all of the information in theworkbook/booklet in a step by step format using diagrams and pictures.

We have provided certification training to companies like GATX, CNIC, Florida East Coast Railroad, TexMex Railroad,Union Tank Car, TTX, Norfolk Southern, the FRA, Transport Canada, and Appalachian Railcar just to name a few.

If you are a self learner, we have workbooks and CDs in all the other packages that allow the student to workindependently. If you are an instructor and need to train your staff, our training packages include an Instructor Guide,Student Workbook and Overheads or PowerPoint Presentations (CD). The CDs can be used by the instructor in place ofoverheads as part of the training package. The manuals we produce are used worldwide by the railroad industry. In thecatalog is a description of the various training materials that are available and an order form that can be faxed to our officeat your convenience.

For more information including instruction leaflets, installation instructions and parts descriptions, visit our website atwww.wabtecglobalservices.com. Extra information and procedures can be found in the technical information section.

Terminal Brake Testing

TP2013 - Student Workbook (January 2010)This manual was created to help understand the basic terminal brake tests performed in Canada and the United States. In the USA, the

Federal Railroad Administration provides the standards for terminal train brake tests. In Canada, Transport Canada provides the standardsfor terminal brake tests. The booklet was updated to reflect the changes brough about in Transport Canada Rules. This booklet shows atypical common sense approach to performing a terminal air brake test with the use of a locomotive and/or a yard test device. This includesthe use of an End -Of-Train (EOT) unit and the tests required to qualify it. With diagrams and pictures, the student will gain a betterunderstanding of the requirements for terminal testing. To ensure accuracy, the manual includes a copy of FRA Part 49, Sub 232 andTransport Canada Regulations.

TP2013 - Instructor Guide (January 2010)The Instructor Guide is designed to mirror the Student Workbook. The Instructor Guide will help an instructor set up and deliver a

training session on the proper air test procedures as required by the FRA and/or Transport Canada. There is a written test in this manualfor the instructor to test the understanding of the students. The instructor guide has a “Notes” column on each page with information forthe instructor such as when to apply the overhead slides and background information on certain equipment.

TP2013 - PowerPoint CD (January 2010)For each diagram and main text points in the student workbook there is a slide. These can be used with the Instructor Guide to provide

detailed information on the test procedures required by the governing bodies..

Wilmerding TrainingEvery year we provide training at our facility in Wilmerding, PA. There are specific courses to cover Locomotive

and Freight car air brakes. The classes are 3 1/2 days long and provide a more in-depth training for people wanting abetter understanding or are wanting more in-depth knowledge of train brake equipment. There are two freight air brakeclasses and two locomotive air brake classes held in the spring and the fall. This year we are including a couple ofgeneric classes on EPIC/Fastbrake locomotive equipment in the fall These classes will be two days in duration. Eachclass will start at 8:30 am and run until 3:45 pm Tuesday through Thursday. Friday’s class will start at 8:30 but will endat 10:30 am to allow for travel.

A. Class Schedule

Freight: Locomotive: EPIC/Fastbrake: March 1 - 4 March 15 - 18 Oct. 18 & 19 April 5 - 8 May 3 - 6 Nov. 29 & 30 Sept. 20 - 23 Oct. 4 - 7 Nov. 1 - 4 Nov. 15 - 18

B. Class OutlineFreight Air Brake Class:

The freight car air brake training is designed around the Single Car Test Procedure per AAR S-486. We start atbasic brakes defining the reason for brakes and testing. From there we cover history of air brakes and the variouscomponents that make up a typical freight car. This includes single capacity and empty/load equipment. Once thestudent understands the makeup of the brake system, we cover train brakes and terminal brake testing. Thursday isspent on Single Car Testing. We define the proper test procedure and the end of the day will be spent on the writtenexam. Friday is spent with the automated test devices and the test procedures.

We will take time to try various applications and simulations with the 150 car air brake rack . Thursday we will taketime for a tour of our facility.

Note, we cannot provide the final item for air test certification per FRA 232 requirements in our facility inWilmerding. We do not have a railcar for the student to do the practical test. For those that need to be certified alternatearrangements can be made for on-site training.

Locomotive Air Brake Class:This class is designed for a locomotive mechanic/machinist but it is adaptable to anyone working on locomotive

brake equipment. We cover basic locomotive brakes, the history of air brakes and key in on the 26 type brakeequipment. In this class you will learn how to read an air brake diagrams, what the various components do and howthey work together. By understanding the components the student is better equipped to troubleshoot the 26L or30ACDW brake equipment.

EPIC/Fastbrake Class:These classes are in response to customer requests. The class will be tailored to the customer needs in a generic

class covering EPIC 3102, II and Fastbrake Locomotive brake equipment.For this class it is recommended the student has attended the locomotive air brake class as a prerequisite. In that

way the student will understand the equipment and be better able to follow the training.In this class we cover basics of locomotive brakes and how the electronic brakes have evolved. The various

components that make up each of these systems and how to test, calibrate, maintenance and troubleshooting of each ofthe systems.
