What It Costs to Stop a Train
An old Kansas City Star note explains that stopping a train costs more power than starting it. A train at sixty miles per hour can be halted in 120 yards using the Westinghouse air-brake, and stopping over a long plane costs enough coal to cover momentum loss, steam use, and brake activity, totaling about $1.17 per complete stop.
