So I'm sure many of you have heard a defect detector's message once or twice, or hundreds of times. Either on a scanner or while working for the railroad. In the many that I have heard, I've only heard "integrity failure" once or twice. My question is, what does a train crew do when the detector says this. I've heard one crew call the dispatcher and report the incident, but didn't stop the train. <br /> <br />Does it depend on what message is said? Is it different practice if the message is for dragging equipment vs a hot axle? Just curious to hear from some railroaders out there. <br /> <br />Thanks!
