A foldable rail-mounted crane stop device includes an actuating device, a slidably fixing device and a braking device. The actuating device is mounted on a crane rail for bearing the pressure of a crane wheel and thereby actuating the braking device, the slidably fixing device is mounted at an end of the crane rail, and the braking device is connected with the slidably fixing device for braking the crane wheel. The device provided by the present invention is used for crane braking at the end of a rail.

Systems for monitoring brake systems on railway assets include a load measuring device. The load measuring device includes an instrumented coupling configured to be connected to the rigging of a brake system of the railway asset; and to an underframe of the railway asset. The load measuring device also includes a data collection unit configured to process an output of a sensor of the instrumented coupling and, based on the sensor output, determine the force being transmitted between the brake rigging and the underframe.
