Hello All ; <br />I've recentlly recieved a copy of 'Dream Trains', and just got to confirm the fact that some Streamliners used the so called EP, or electropneumatic brake, wich is, no more, no less than an electrical system used to acivate cars air brakes simultaneousely providing a faster recation of the and reding braking distances. Since that in my country such a system is used in Intercity trains running at 100 mph (with EP out of service they get to be limited at 87), was that a condition used also to reach high speeds ? <br />And nowadays, are there any railroads using it ? <br />Many thanks <br />Mario
