The Switchman remote control is a small hand control that gives ground personnel the ability to halt rail operations. About the size of a common T.V. remote, the Switchman control is easily portable.
Depressing the E-stop button on the control activates the vehicle¼s emergcy stop system, applying the vehicle brakes and train air brake system simultaneously to halt rail movement.
Although the Switchman control and E-stop system are optional equipment, their use in the industry is so prevalent for safety concerns that we install it on more than 70% of all new vehicles built today.
