Abstract
A brake control system having a vent valve device in which a control piston is effective to unseat a normally closed vent valve to provide rapid exhaust of brake pipe pressure to either propagate an emergency brake application in response to brake pipe pressure on one side of the piston being reduced at an emergency rate or to initiate an emergency brake application when pressure on the opposite side of the piston is increased by an auxiliary pilot valve connected to a second main reservoir at a higher pressure.
