[quote user="jeffhergert"]Anymore, it seems like any emergency application, other than the engineer (or conductor) placing the train into emergency is lumped into the UDE category.  Even if it's because the system does exactly what it's supposed to do when, for example, an air hose parts. Old heads used to say on trains with the long cars, cut out the first car's air brakes.  That seemed to lessen the chance of a dynamiter.  There are other tricks that are said to lessen a chance of a dynamiter, but the experts will say they don't work.  It's just a coincidence when they do.  Jeff[/quote] Jeff, Are you saying that the term UDE was originally intended to apply only to dynamiters? What are some of those other tricks to lessen the chance of a dynamiter?
