This letter report, prepared by the Transportation Technology Center, Inc. (TTCI), Pueblo, Colorado, a subsidiary of the Association of American Railroads (AAR), summarizes the findings of the service testing of Electronically Controlled Pneumatic (ECP) Brakes, carried out between the spring of 1996 and the summer of 1997. This report focuses on the Conrail Revenue Service Test, which is one of the two tests specifically featured in Task Order Number 1-Advanced Braking System Safety Evaluation. In addition, selected results from the other revenue service tests, conducted during the same time, are included for comparison purposes. Also, the actions taken by the AAR in the specification development process, as a results of the findings of the revenue service tests, are discussed. The primary focus of the AAR's ongoing work is to establish a non-overlay ECP test train, assure that the system is safe for revenue service, and then compare its operation to an identical standard train.
