Abstract CONSIST ADHESION LEVEL CONTROL SYSTEM FOR LOCOMOTIVES A system (30) for adjusting wheel adhesion levels on multiple locomotive axles in a rail vehicle consist (10) is provided. The system includes a first controller (32) associated with a lead locomotive (12) and a second controller (42) associated with at least one trailing locomotive (14). A wheel adhesion level sensor (38, 48) is configured to detect a low wheel adhesion level at an axle (26) and transmit that information to the first or second controller (32, 42). The first controller (32) adjusts the load being delivered to the axles (26) by the motor in response to the low wheel adhesion level. 3646- 50,52
