[quote user="243129"] "Why is the rate of deceleration higher with the emergency application than with the service application?"   This is the question I answered. <div style="clear:both;"> </div> [/quote] In my opinion you answered a different question. The Talgo's emergency application deceleration rate is not higher than full service (2.7 mph/sec vs. 2.3 mph/sec) because of the dumped air but because the brake cylinder pressure and therefore the brake force is higher. Euclid didn't ask for the propagation rate difference (E. 930 ft/sec vs FS 540 ft/sec), the question you answered. regards, Volker
