See how a small brake shoe creates massive friction to stop hundreds of tons of steel in rail yards. This simple device has been preventing train disasters for over a century. And if it fails, buffer stops act as giant shock absorbers at the end of every track. #TrainBrakes #BrakeShoe #RailwayEngineering #BufferStop #Friction #TrainSafety #RailYard #Engineering #Physics #HowItWorks

850 tons is nothing in Rail Road work. I've seen coal trains that were 18,000 tons.
Talks about how the buffer is the backup and then shows a video of it failing😭
“If they don’t work then the buffer stops will”, shows the buffer stops getting crushed
That's a rail skate, not a brake shoe...stoopid AI crap
Crazy how something that small can stop something that massive!
I like trains
It beats having to run alongside the wagon and pulling the brake handle from there like in the old days
Редкий случай, когда вижу на видео что-то, к чему сам прикладываю руку (я фрезеровщик, работаю на заводе, выпускающем разнообразное оборудование для железных дорог).
It is not because it is metal on metal wanna know why The wheel-metal The track-metal Metal on metal low friction
That's a skate, not a brake shoe
So this is what will stop the gta 5 train 😂😂
there are a few types of buffer stops
Not all tracks have buffers
Why don't they just call Tobey Maguire every time a train is out of control?
Its not the metal-metal creating the friction it is the trains own weight pressing onto it
The footage is from a railway that sponsors the murder of children in my country.
Me: (A RAILFAN) Wow this is very damn interesting better check the comments to see what people think The comment: IMAGINE TRYING TO STOP THE GTA 5 TRAIN
Your Ai videos are way off brother
That's not a shoe
“Bust my buffers” said Thomas the train. 🚂
