Brakes
(1) That railwaymen took great interest in the problem of stopping trains from the very beginning of railroading is quite evident. The fact is that troubles with brakes began on the Stockton & Darlington Railway when this first railway line was only six weeks old.
(2) One day as the train was running over the rails a coupling device broke. Being freed from its load, the locomotive leaped ahead (зд. рвануться). Having applied the brake the driver quickly stopped the engine, but he could not stop the train. The matter is that only the locomotive had brakes at that time. As a result, the cars came crushing (зд. врезаться) into the locomotive. That the cars themselves must have brakes became clear to the railwaymen. (3) Many efforts were made to develop a train brake and many types of brakes were devised. At last, George Wes-tinghouse, an American engineer, invented a good air brake which could gradually stop the entire train. Having been improved, the Westinghouse brake found a wide application on railways.
