(Engineering Management)Abstract: This study provides an analysis of the technology development within the railway brake system in the Transnet Freight Railway heavy haul line. The study focuses on brake system development within the freight railway business transporting coal from the mines in Ermelo to the client’s yard in Richards Bay. This study also provides findings from the technology development in freight railway braking system. An introduction of electronics in train braking system has brought operational improvements with an improved braking reaction feature that has simultaneous response capability during a brake command. The study was performed to determine railway transportation strategies that will improve performance thus meet client’s demand and improve business revenue. An analysis of the studies conducted by various authors reveals that a technology developed braking system features include safe operation and improved brake management in trains with longer ...
