Abstract;The track-maintenance-work car is composed of a kind of on-rail motorcar and small-type freight cars, etc.. In the case of conventional track-maintenance-work car, of long train composition, the actuation/loosening of brake at the rearward cars were effected, only accompanied by a corresponding time lag. Such time lag should be avoided, as far as possible. And, in the case of cars transporting long rails, the synchronization of brake actuation is especially required. Thus, we have developed a braking system for track-maintenance-work car, by simplifying the "electrocommanding air brake equipment", which has been validated by many electric trains. Here, this braking system is explained.
