Systems and methods for adjusting operation of a train are disclosed. A method may include: receiving one or more infrared images of a brake line of the train; detecting one or more leaks of the brake line based on the one or more infrared images; and adjusting a brake command based on the detected one or more leaks.

The present invention relates to a fault diagnosis apparatus for a brake of a train, an automatic train operation system operated due to degradation of braking performance using the same, and a fault diagnosis method for the brake of the train. In particular, the present invention is directed to determining that a fault has occurred in the brake when the difference between the current acceleration of the train and the required acceleration is greater than or equal to a reference value and safely moving the train to a stopping point through a powering operation or coasting operation such that emergency braking is not applied by an automatic train protection (ATP) system if the fault has occurred in the brake. When a fault occurs in the brake of the train, the train is automatically operated such that emergency braking is not triggered by an ATP system.

A train control system and method for use in an electronically-controlled pneumatic (ECP)-equipped train having a lead locomotive or control car, at least one railroad car and, optionally, at least one trailing locomotive or control car. A first controller or computer generates a train brake command and directly or indirectly transmit the train brake command to the at least one railroad car. A second controller or computer separate from the first controller or computer determines transmission of the train brake command to the at least one railroad car.
