locomotives have a distance counter on them...you push a button and it counts out feet as you go... you just look at your train documents for the over all length of your train... and use the counter to see if you are clear...the eot just gives you a brake pipe reading on the end of the train, and can be used to apply an emergancy application of the brakes by fliping a switch... and a motion dector for letting you know if your last car in your train is moving... and last but not least...the red marker light... eots themselfs can not tell if your last car has cleared a point..unless someone is thier to spot it.... <br />csx engineer
