Electronically Controlled Pneumatic Brakes
Electronically controlled pneumatic brakes are a type of modern railway braking system which offer improved performance compared to traditional railway air brakes. Overview Traditional train braking systems use pneumatic valves to control and generate brake applications on the cars along the length of the train. In general, this conventional system consists of a brake pipe that runs the length of the train which supplies air to reservoirs mounted on each of the cars. When the brake pipe and car components are charged with air, the brakes release. When the engineer needs to make a brake application, control valves in the locomotive reduce the brake pipe pressure. As the brake pipe pressure reduces, the service portion on each car diverts air from their reservoirs to their brake cylinders. To release the brakes, the engineer charges the brake pipe. This method of controlling the brakes on freight and passenger cars has remained virtually unchanged since its invention by George Wes ...

Electric Multiple Units Of Japan
Electricity is the set of physical phenomena associated with the presence and motion of matter that has a property of electric charge. Electricity is related to magnetism, both being part of the phenomenon of electromagnetism, as described by Maxwell's equations. Various common phenomena are related to electricity, including lightning, static electricity, electric heating, electric discharges and many others. The presence of an electric charge, which can be either positive or negative, produces an electric field. The movement of electric charges is an electric current and produces a magnetic field. When a charge is placed in a location with a non-zero electric field, a force will act on it. The magnitude of this force is given by Coulomb's law. If the charge moves, the electric field would be doing work on the electric charge. Thus we can speak of electric potential at a certain point in space, which is equal to the work done by an external agent in carrying a unit of p ...

Keio 5000 Series (2nd Generation)
The is an electric multiple unit (EMU) commuter train type operated by the private railway operator Keio Corporation in the Tokyo area of Japan since 29 September 2017. A total of six ten-car trainsets were built by J-TREC. The trains feature rotating seats that can be arranged longitudinally for daytime services and in forward-facing transverse pairs for reserved-seat ''Keio Liner'' commuter services in the evenings which started on 22 February 2018. Design Designed by Kazuhiko Saito and Taro Shiono, the Keio 5000 series is designed to be used in a broad range of scenarios by pursuing high degrees of ride quality. The interior features motifs inspired by the trees of Mount Takao. The train type was a recipient of the Good Design Award in 2017.

Tobu 70000 Series
The is a Japanese DC electric multiple unit (EMU) commuter train type operated by the private railway operator Tobu Railway on Tobu Skytree Line and Tokyo Metro Hibiya Line inter-running services since 7 July 2017. Variants *70000 series (in service since 7 July 2017) *70090 series (in service since 20 March 2020) 70000 series Overview The 70000 series trains are scheduled to replace the 20000 series EMUs used on Tobu Skytree Line and Tokyo Metro Hibiya Line inter-running services. Due to the effective length of the new trains which have 20 m long cars instead of the 18 m long cars of the 20000 series, the trains were formed of seven cars instead of eight cars to cope with Hibiya Line platform lengths, resulting in about a 1% reduction in capacity. A unified door arrangement with four pairs per side instead of the mixture of three and five pairs per side on the 20000 series trains allows the installation of platform edge doors on the Tokyo Metro Hibiya Line once the older trai ...
